We have considered crate training but I don't think it would be much different from what we are already doing... at night and when we are out, she gets put into the small bathroom, we put a baby gate in front of the door rather than closing her in completely with the door closed. It seems to work and shes stopped peeing in there during the night or while we are out... so I know she is able to hold it for long periods of time... I think she is just peeing on the floor to get attention. Boy its like having a baby already! haha

Good practice for you Maybe try the bathroom thing during the day too? We crate trained in day and night to start with. Just an idea! I'm sure you'll crack it (or her) one way or another x

............oops, posted too early!!!!

I will be 10 weeks, very excited but just wondering if anyone else has dates for theirs? How on earth are we going to wait that long its awful I'm just too excited to wait! I am a teacher and am hols at the mo which is a big bonus but i'm just trying to keep myself occupied as this is my 1st!!!! so no other kids to keep me busy!

Wow - 10 weeks. I'm jealous! I haven't even got my booking appointment with the midwife until 8.5 weeks (8th August). I can't see my scan being early! Will you have your nuchal scan at the same time? Will you not be too early for that?

As for me, today I am ridiculously tired. Like stupidly so. I came home from work at lunchtime - I was going to work from this afternoon. Instead i ate lunch and then promptly feel asleep for three hours. I have woken up feeling super groggy and I can't snap out of it. I have been tired for the last three weeks but today I have hit a wall. Anyone else done this?

Yes! That was me a few days ago at work. I literally just hit a wall and virtually fell asleep at my desk. My bones ached, just walking upstairs, I could have slept anywhere. Today has been odd, veerrryyy energised, but I have a lot to do. Maybe tomorrow for you will be a different day? Perhaps there are major baby development days and it takes it out of you and then the next day is less trying.

Thanks for the kind thoughts btw, much appreciated.

Thats a good way of looking at things. I was sooo tired yesterday I took 2 naps and still went to bed early. Today I am wide awake. Maybe some days are a bigger milestones for baby then others.

Funny - I was wondering the same earlier. I read somewhere that when you get past the first few weeks that the rate of development can depend on the baby and that there can be growth spurts! Perhaps today is growth spurt day x

Snap!! I was exactly the same with DS. The first 13 weeks were definitely the worse for me.

I'm soooo tired tonight and my back and legs are a bit achey but I've been on my feet at work all day. I've also started to feel quite sicky when I eat but obviously I have to eat so it's not that pleasant!

Is anyone still getting cramps on and off?

 

[xdaniellexpx]

yep ive got the cramps at the min i feel good i just want to eat constantly. am getting cramps all over my belly tho is this normal there not painfull like xx

sorry for using the word like all the time am a scouser so its what we say hahah xx

 

[Sambles]

Ha ha when I read your posts now I'm gonna read them with a scouser accent

I think the cramps are normal but like everything, you can't help but worry a bit xx

 

[xdaniellexpx]

[littleANDlost]

Evening Ladies!

Finaly got to sit down after getting in from work. Ever feel like things just never stop? Thankfuly though I've not been sick all day!!!! Only felt a little sick earlier. I think i've cracked it! I just have to eat constantly.

 

[Flaneuse]

I hear you! I feel better when I am full, but everything tends to sound unappetizing so it is a battle!

 

[Sambles]

haha cickkkkkeeennn haha the 1st 12 weeks are the worse thats y i want a doppler hehe

I got a doppler with DS and I was so glad I did but you have to be careful that you don't become obsessed with them which I almost did

Hello ladies,
Hoped I could join this forum- have been keeping an eye on it for a little while and thought I would say hi!
What an exciting forum as we are all due around the same time. I am 6 weeks and due on March 21st (I think!) How's everyone feeling? I'm still feeling anxious and can't wait to get thru the next few weeks to make it feel more 'real' and secure. I know so many people who had troubles in the first few weeks and I just want this to stick! I've wanted a baba for such a long time but had to hold on for quite a while as I have a very large ovarian cyst which had to be removed along with one of my ovaries so I was dubious to whether I could get pregnant or not. I am so pleased that I am and do feel positive but just want to feel more confident!!! On a different note- has anyone had a lot of excess salivia without vomiting?!!

Congrats to you all and a very happy and healthy pregnancy wished to you all.

 

[MsCrow]

Hello Kizzy
Here's hoping you have a great pregnancy.
I've felt nauseous with some saliva. Going out for a quick walk outside has really helped.

 

[Sambles]

Hi Kizzy

Welcome and congratulations

These first few weeks are definitely the worse. I wish I could hibernate until I reached 2nd tri! xx

 

[Luv_My_Bichon]

So the EPU rang and as understanding and sympathetic as she was - they won't see my til I'm 7 weeks!! Shesaid they can't see enough before then but I've read you girls have gone way earlier

So I've got to wait until a week on Monday to see if my little one is ok?? I am beyond in despair!!

So so unfair and made worse by the fact mine was a missed miscarriage last time so even though the brown has now stopped I can't be sure it's ok as that happened last time and I didn;t find out until week 11 the baby died at 6.5/7 weeks - How am I gonna cope til then?

DH God love him just went out and bought me a Digi so at least I can check to see if the levels have gone up on that. The last one I did nearly 2 weeks ago said 1-2, please God let it say 3+

xx
