Sounds good Wild! make sure you enjoy every mouthful of it!

I adore curry, but the heat makes me cry, I can't handle it, so I stick to a chicken korma.

 

[wild2011]

i dont do korma, too creamy for my liking, if i dont fancy spicy then i like spanish chicken mmmmmm either wiv a plate of salad and a few home made potato wedges or boiled rice. i eat that much curry at the end wiv sienna, that i gave myself bad tummy which set labour off.

 

[Wiggler]

OH likes his food so hot it would set my mouth on fire! I tried curry to help Dylan come out, but all I ended up with was a sore mouth and a ring of fire

 

[wild2011]

lol, i felt sorry for my mw's during labour, lolol got a small sports bottle filled wiv sparkling water, which is all i can stomach drinks wise, teeny squirts of it or ill be running to bathroom,fag smoke causing problems for me at the momment cant walk past smokers at all, they everywhere on way to school and back so i get in right state lol

 

[Wiggler]

The smell that is making me gag is the smell of sewage. Half the time it smells like the drains have been overflowing round here. its gross. good thing the smell doesnt come into the flat.

LOL, I was on medication for preterm labor until 38 weeks I think it was, and I thought I would go right away after around 16 weeks of contractions but I didn't. I tried pineapple, hot food, walking my butt off and sex. I wanted to go naturally because they were going to induce me at 38 weeks because my placenta was calcified. They ended up being too full at the hospital to get me in for my induction for a few days so luckily my water broke just before 39 weeks. Hoping I'm lucky enough to go into labor on my own at 39 weeks this time. The lady at the Chinese food place was starting to know my order by heart

 

[meow951]

Wow you ladies can talk lol

new- i agree with sort of buying on a day to day basis. I buy a weeks worth of shopping and then i get home and think bleugh i don't want anything that i've bought!

If there was one thing i'm not looking forward too it's the possibility of tearing or being cut really badly! I'm not too worried about piles etc I know if you need to be cut etc to get baby out thats fine but it's not something that i relish the thought of.

Where is everyone planning on giving birth etc?

My ideal birth is at home, in a birth pool with no hospital interventions needed. With gas and air, tens and hyno birthing techniques.

Although we all know nothing ever goes to plan!

 

[new_to_ttc]

In hospital with pethadine and a comfy bed lolol

 

[cheree89]

Lucky - I so need to begin my registry. I know that my grandma will be bugging me soon. She will want to buy Christmas gifts off of the registry, which is fine by me! When I graduated from high school she wanted me to pick out a china pattern so she could buy that for me in pieces for birthday and christmas gifts - lol. Needless to say, I told her I didn't need a real china set - not my style.

Is anyone doing an online registry (like Amazon)? I am considering doing one online registry b/c I really want folks to buy cloth diapers for me and those aren't really in the big shops (Target and BRU).

I am going to a hospital - I am a big chicken. I might do a water birth - trying to go with no pain relief intervention (other than natural birthing techniques).

 

[Wiggler]

I'm going to hospital again this time. Although i would like to try without an epidural. I can't have diamorphine as it anti-sickness meds they give with it make me sooo sick (I started puking, after 2 hours I got another anti-sickness jab, followed by MORE puking, then 2 rounds of anti-sickness tabs which made the puking so severe they wanted me in overnight )

If I had a choice between tearing and a cut I would deffo choose tearing, apparently they heal much faster and don't hurt as much.

If this birth goes well and I can cope well without an epi then I would really consider having next baby at home

 

[lisaf]

Apparently I'm really late to the party this morning, lol!

Wiggler - nothing wrong with a dyson obsession, hehe! Its COMPLETELY normal... those who say its not have not met the right dyson product yet

LOL at the magic bullet thing... I know what BOTH versions of it are.

You should check all the supplements in the smoothies though as I was reading the other day that flax seed oil isn't recommended during pregnancy (though its probably fine in moderation like most things).
Also the healthiness of smoothies varies a LOT based on what you put in. Our local smoothie shop lists all their nutritional facts and some are absolutely awful for you.
If its not the calorie content, it could be the spike in blood sugar from all the fruit? (thinking glycemic index here)

cheree - I will have to do something that is available online.. Babies R Us is popular here, and there are lots of stores for those who like to buy in person, but the registry is available online as well. We don't have a Babies R us or a national chain in town so its about an hour's drive to go shopping there, so local people will probably have to shop online.
I LOVE amazon wish lists... I already have a private one for baby stuff just to bookmark what I've seen that I like.

 

[Wiggler]

OH is back on the ps3 for the night so I have another night of being online without being moaned at! not sure what to do though...

 

[new_to_ttc]

Oooohh yeah thats what the doctor said... smoothies are high GI no good for PCOS lolol I knew it'd come to me ty ty Lisa lol

 

[lisaf]

lol no prob!
I was just thinking of my friend who got insulin resistance on her GTT while pregnant and was told no fruit or dairy for breakfast!

 

[new_to_ttc]

I had (have??) insulin resistance as part of the PCOS. I just couldnt remember why I shouldnt be having smoothies ha ha ha ha
