Lucky thread

I know it's strange how sometimes it doesn't feel real because I haven't seen a MW yet and no one really knows. We had BIL and SIL and their kids visit tonight and they were chatting about us 4 going for a drink soon and was dying to tell them. But wouldn't want the kids thinking they were getting another cousin too soon.
I'll be glad once I've been to see the MW and got to fill out my green notes.

One born upset me a little actually, that fashion couple that had 2 MCs after their daughter, was upsetting to watch them. Made me feel a little more worried than I had been. But must stay positive!

Mmmm apple slices sound sooooo nice! I could just eat them if I didn't feel sick lol!
You are better than me mrs d I'm rubbish at making the best out of food that's on it's way out!

My sickness was also waaaayyyyy worse at night, in fact if I was sick it was usually at night rather than the morning.

Salt and vinegar crisps are about to become your best friend!

I was in no rush to tell people, in fact I'm still not, I think I like the idea of it being my secret, not sure why?? It's strange now that it's such a small risk of anything bad happening I still keep thinking, after the next scan, then after the next scan etc, maybe it still hasn't sunk in or I'm still scared of something going wrong???

Yup we must stay positive

I must watch the rest of one born before I forget what I've already seen

I try to keep those just roll pastry sheets in my freezer to use for fruit that's past it's best, I use the slow cooker to do a casserole when the veg needs using up and I always have some pesto in the fridge and either have all the leftovers with pasta and pesto or in a risotto, so I try to be good and not waste food

The apple pastry was good

 

[MrsDuck]

I agree, I wasn't ever sick in the morning, all of mine was evening or during the night

Yuck I couldn't face salt and vinegar crisps with ms, boring bread or pasta was my friend

 

[baileybubs]

The pesto is a good tip mrs d thanks! And the pastry too, in fact I did make a summer fruits strudel that I made last time I had that pastry in the freezer, must get some of that too!

Cupcake I found crackers helped me today, just nibbling at them. I'm mainly trying to just ignore it lol, hoping it won't get worse!

 

[cupcake1981]

Yeah I loved potatoes to. Generally bland starchy food. Hated eggs and chicken.

Did anyone use amber teething jewellery with their bubbas? Thinking if getting an anklet in for Zach in readiness.

 

[baileybubs]

The thought of chicken has made me feel sick today cupcake. I had steak for tea though red meat is fine! I refused to buy a chicken when I was shopping today coz I just didn't think I could bring myself to cook and eat it!

I haven't bought any myself but I believe it's supposed to be quite good. An anklet is a good idea too rather than bracelet or necklace.

 

[MrsDuck]

Amber teething jewellery?? I'll need to google that

Oooh the rest of my travel system turned up today now I just need the baby to put in it

 

[cupcake1981]

Yeah I've heard good things. Figured an anklet would be safest.

Still not keen on chicken now tbh. Have you gone off sweet stuff to? I had days I couldn't even drink cos even squash made me sicky. Ended up sending hubby out for tomato juice haha.

 

[baileybubs]

Yay for the travel system! At least you can have a play about with it and see how it fits in the car and stuff.

Amber is supposed to ease the pain of teething as a natural stone, so they make baby necklaces bracelets and anklets for them to wear so teething isn't as bad.

 

[cupcake1981]

Yey for pram mrs d! Have you put it together yet for a play?

 

[baileybubs]

That's so weird cupcake coz I sent df to the shop the other day for tomato juice! But not really gone off sweet stuff, still eating chocolate and I bought that ice cream but I wouldn't say I was craving it at all. I'm fact I've hardly eaten that ice cream.

 

[cupcake1981]

Yeah when it warms in the skin it's supposed to release an acid that is anti inflammatory and immune boosting, great for teething bubbas x

 

[cupcake1981]

Yeah tomato juice us like the only savoury drink, it was like the nicest thing if drunk in days!

 

[baileybubs]

I have a feeling my food cravings and aversions are only going to get worse lol! It's strange how so far I feel quite differently from last time. I'm actually sleeping more soundly too oddly! I've had a couple of nights with a bit of insomnia but when I am sleeping I'm not being disturbed as easily, which is odd for me! Did either of you find that happened?

 

[cupcake1981]

Do not really my sleep was crap while pregnancy if I remember right. Preparation for the 4th trimester lol!

 

[baileybubs]

I remember sleeping a lot during first tri, lots of naps and early nights but not sleeping well as such. Strange lol. Maybe my brain knows I need to switch off to save energy!

 

[MrsDuck]

No it's still boxed up and joined everything else in storage until we move, I need the house as clutter free as poss

Sounds like the amber is worth a try

No I sleep rubbish every night, but that's as much down to my thyroid as pregnancy

It's a lovely sunny day again today but cold and blowing a gale. I've got a drinks do after work tonight, rubbish when I can't drink and got to make small talk with lots of drunk people talking crap

 

[MrsDuck]

Where have all our ttcers gone??

Ttc, sath, espero, cath I hope you are all well xxx

 

[baileybubs]

I know, hope you ladies are ok and it's not coz we've been talking too much baby/pregnancy stuff, we miss you guys!!!

Mrs d I took your tip and I bought some ready roll pastry and some pesto from Aldi! Love aldi, got so much stuff and was shocked when the guy said £17 please lol!
