[Wiggler]

I miss cooking so much. OH isnt great at making stuff from scratch, but he does amazing roast dinners. I'm the messy one in the kitchen though. hehe. I think i'm going to have to make a HUGE homemade fish pie when I feel up to cooking again. yum

Look at this gorgeous Dyson! I am totally in love with it

only problem is that its £303, so i might get it in the 2012 january sales. My Dyson should last until then.

 

[wild2011]

lol my friend swears by dyson, i have really large awkward winding stairs and i hate lugging hoovers up them,

ive just come across a bump pic of my last, at 3o weeks oh my god, my eyes r watering lol

 

[Wiggler]

There is only one proper bump pic of me when I was pregnant with Dylan, my friend took it. I am deffo doing bump picies this time though

 

[24/7]

I love my dyson!!

 

[Wiggler]

I love my Dyson too! Its the second one we have had, the first one a friend gave us a second hand one when we moved in and it was geat until the cow who used to live opposite borrowed it and hoovered up HUGE chunks of glass and it broke, then my mum gave us this one they found in a skip (nothing wrong, just the filter was blocked) they did it up and gave it to us, but then the belt snapped, so going to buy my Dyson a new belt as an early Xmas pressie.

I'm nuts

 

[wild2011]

lol x

Hopeful you made me want a peppermint hot chocolate with whip. I used to go to Starbucks almost daily for coffee but went off when I got pregnant and now I can't stand the smell. Enjoy your spa day.

I am sooooo tired. I got off late because it was really busy last night. Didn't get to bed until after 1:00am. I was freaking out last night because I started getting horrible cramping. It hurt to even walk. I drank tons of water but couldn't sit down since it was busy. I feel fine now after waking up. Hoping not to experience that again. I should be getting my doppler in the next few days.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Peppermint Aero hot chocolate is the best. Ive been so sick the last 2 days that even water wont stay down Only thing Ive kept down today is Haribo Milkshake bottles and 2 pieces of marmite on toast. Ive got such a headache so Im probably dehydrated from the sickness
Really craving ham and pineapple pizza but cant be bothered to cook one

 

[wild2011]

ive been otherwise engaged with a bucket, its taken till now for the breakfast to come up, sorry tmi, i must have some sort of blocakge, its like it all builds up. feel really poorly again arghhhhhhhh

 

[lisaf]

I love my dyson too!! Lol... I had to buy a new hose for mine as it finally tore after being stretched and bent at a 90 degree angle (right at the connection) every time I used it
Mine has a feature where you can't burn through the belt... it makes this horrible noise when you get something wrapped and it disengages the belt somehow I think? Either way... its been 7 years, same belt, lol

I keep trying to talk my mom into getting one, she goes through a few belts a year and has to use a screw driver and take hers apart to fix it each time... She needs something lightweight enough to lug up and down her stairs though. The lighter dysons aren't as powerful.


My nausea is worse and worse it seems. And MUCH more violent. I have a fridge odor problem right now (which of course only I can detect and a full fridge/freezer clean out with new box of baking soda has not helped - my water tastes fine but my ice when it melts tastes like the smell... we're about ready to call for service on the dang thing, its only 2 years old!). The smell from the fridge made me throw up this morning.. quite violently... I think I scared the cats and the dog, and I have no idea how the neighbors don't hear me, lol.

I'm quite grateful I can keep my food down the rest of the day though!

 

[wild2011]

previous pregnancies i always had a routine, i new roughly wen i was going to be sick etc, this time it strikes wenever it randomly wants. my hubby doesnt know what to do to help me bless him, u would think he'd be clued up seen as it is our 4th but he is struggling lol

 

[Wiggler]

Inge and Wild - I hope you ladies feel better soon. Big hugs!

Lisa - Deffo get a service on the fridge and if the ice tastes bad make sure you don't use it. I hope its something simple to sort, I was living in a hostel type place and my fridge got the smell and broke down, filled with mould etc etc (I was pregnant at the time so couldnt even use the fridge) and they replaced it with ANOTHER mouldy fridge. I was so pissed off, especially when i knew they had 5 brand new fridges I could use. Then when I moved my nan and grandad bought me a new fridge and freezer, was so nice to be able to use one that was safe!

My OH is being so wonderful today, after all the little treats he got me earlier, he has gone to the local shop to buy me some ribena, and when he goes up to Tesco later he is buying me a cheesecake He has been so much more supportive since our second scan yesterday, I guess its finally sunk in properly for him

 

[new_to_ttc]

new- I slept really weird and was having bizarre dreams and i woke up thinking my appendix burst it was this dull pain on lower right side between my hip bone and belly button that last like 30 min. It finally went away but like you I am sensitive and have that pain when i sneeze or blow my nose too hard and today the sneezing has just been more sensitive.

moment of tmi:

I have no clue when women say they don't want to have sex when they're pregnant i have never felt so frisky in my entire life and I have always had a very strong sex drive and it's driving me even more crazy my husband is gone.

How is everyone else? increased sex drive or decreased?

Hope the pain has settled hun!! I think with everything ur bodies is going through, anything additional is just too much!!

Im on a public server atm as my internet has gone down so just leaving myself a note to say Im up to page 260 and will catch up hopefully in the next day or 2 when Im fixed. I was going to try and read it all but the pages are loading so slow lol

But as I saw this post, incase things get tooooo long to catch up with, I just wanted to say thank god I am not alone lol Everyone else I have spoken to (and on Corrie too lolol) says the sex drive died... OMG mine is on overdrive lol Maybe it is to do with dp walking out on me and not been able to have it lol but I want it all the time lololololol I do have a long term friend who is very willing to settle the urges rofl (we been there done it in the past... relationship never ever will work but the sex is great oops and he is a best friend and always will be lolol).

Right need to get off this server, Im in a crowded place and getting funny looks lol Hope you all well.. any scans coming up good luck and chat to you all soon I hope xxx

 

[luckyme225]

Inge- you have my craving a Hawaiian pizza...yuuummmyy. That was one of my favorites growing up but my husband hates it so we never get it. Think I will just have to buy one for myself lol.

Lisa- I wouldn't know if I have fridge problems, I can't even look in the pantry because seeing all the different food makes me sick. It's pretty bad that I have to pick something up whenever I want to eat.

Sounds like we are all sick these days... when is it going to end???

 

[Inge]

Just phoned dr bout my very bad sickness. I just have to keep eating and rinking or Il have to go in and maybe end up on a drip How can I eat when it just comes straight back up again? I cant even keep water down anymore Ive got a pounding headache and nothing left in my tummy apart from sweets Urgh cant wait til oh gets home at 10pm I need a hug

Well this fridge is only 2 years old, we bought it brand new, fairly top of the line. The smell/taste is not a moldy/musty/mildew smell (I know that smell well from a few apartment fridges/showers/bathrooms and a horrible situation with wet carpet/roof leak in my dorm room). Its not a standing water smell like sulfer. Its a rotten food/sweet smell. Sort of like a dumpster smell if that makes sense.

I can't stand to touch the ice anymore so I'm not using it but since the water that comes out is fine I don't think the water supply is tainted, just that the ice is picking up this odor.

Oh, and how's this for scary? They had to take away our water cooler at work once because apparently it was growing all kinds of algae inside the water area. Of course they didn't take it right away, just put a bottle up on it with the cap on.. so we saw this and said 'who's the idiot who did this?' pulled the cap off and drank the water. UGH!

hi everyone been stalking this forum and would like to join you ladies had my dating scan this morning and put me forward yay feels good seeing 12 weeks on my ticker x

 

[Wiggler]

OMG! I feel like freaking out at the moment!

*in spoiler tags cos it really is a MAJOR TMI post*

Spoiler

when I had Dylan, I had an episiotomy, I was stitched up after with dissolvable stitches and was told they would dissolve after 9+ days.

What actually happened was they dissolved after 3 days (they couldnt restitch so it had to heal as an open wound) and I got a really bad infection from a bacteria that naturally lives on the skin (can't remember the name) even though I kept it very clean, gave it lots of air etc etc

I know that is really uncommon, but I am terrified that if I tear, or am cut again this time the same thing will happen, I was on anti-biotics for weeks, I couldnt take the painkillers they gave me because they were so strong and made me feel stoned, I couldn't even lift my baby up because of the pain

I don't see my MW for a month so cant ask her, but what do you think the chances are of tearing/episiotomy are now that I have already given birth once? I just dont want to spend the rest of my pregnancy worrying about this

i've been there done that with the drip, i suffer with hyperemesis, ( the most severe form of ms) and was drip dependant through the 1st/2nd tri during my last pregnancy. it didnt make me feel any better or any worse, but i new an ammount of fluid was getting into my system to support baby, i think living with it gets easier wen u know baby is ok.

im borderline this time and heading for the drip again, try to eat tiny moutfuls of things, try drinks thru a sports cap bottle, tiny tiny sips, have u tried lucozade? its really hard and i dont know about you but i cant eat the same thing twice.



try and keep something down x
