not a huge cheesecake fan, never have been.. just weird flavor and texture

 

[lisaf]

wow, lots of food talk today!!! LOL
You guys got me started softening some butter to make cookies though.. Bad influences!!!

 

[luckyme225]

I love a good quality cheesecake.

hopeful- Do you cook your pork loin in a slow cooker? Sounds delicious.

 

[cheree89]

Hi all -

Funny you all are talking about this...I just ate butternut squash, red fingerling potatoes and sweet onions with olive oil, rosemary, basil and thyme from my slow cooker. It was yummy!

Since I found out my insurance will cover 12 genetic scan/tests, I am going first thing tomorrow morning. Wish me luck!

 

[hopefulmama]

lucky- no i actually cook it in a small glass pan with foil over it, ssometimes when i am feeling lazy i put that and a bunch of veggies in a slow cooker, but mostly in the over for 20 mins at 425

 

[luckyme225]

Ok, this baby is craving hot fudge brownies with a scoop of ice cream on top. I'm thinking I shouldn't let this kid down.

 

[Wiggler]

Haha Lucky, indulge yourself hun!

I feel like I barely slept last night, I am deffo going to try and have an early night tonight.

 

[new_to_ttc]

How did the pork loin go down Hopeful? You feeling fully better after your dizzy spell yesterday??

Lucky indulge lol Usually that would be to my taste but baby really hates anything chocolate lol

I prefer a homemade cheesecake, but other day I was like 'need it now!!' Although the time it took to defrost I could have made one lol

Morning Wiggler I didnt sleep at all well last night either. I was wide awake watching TV until 1am (didnt realse the time) so went up, but I was clock watching all night, I remember seeing 5.04am arghhhh and I dont think I had slept much between 1am and then either as I saw some 2am times and 4am times. Of course when the alarm went off at 7am that was it, my body was ready for sleep and I didnt actually emerge from bed until 8am lol

 

[twinmummy06]

argh i was feeling so much better for.... a week
now ive got this terrible back pain, like constantly. im walking like a penguin, its killing me!
starting to get aversions to red meat too, cooked and uncooked, the thought just makes me want to hurl.
i had my follow-up scan today. i had no bleeding since friday, had a spot of brown today and nothing else
but fidget is fine! measuring 14+2, heartbeat 139 this time, and the technician (either via slip of the tongue or HOPEFULLY a subtle hint) referred to it as a she, twice! it made me happy, even if it was an accident
antenatal appointment tomorrow for 12 week results, and i dont have to take the kids - thats the most exciting part

 

[new_to_ttc]

Oh twin so glad all was ok with bubs... probably a bit early for sonographer to 'know' the sex but hey could be a sign all the same Im sure your appointment will go just as well

Weird, you excited about having 5 minutes without the kids, and Im collecting mine from school to bring him with me lolol He wants to hear baby on the doppler so I said he can attend my appointment with me next week

 

[Wiggler]

Thats great twinmummy! So happy for you! I hope your back pain goes away soon!

Aww new, try and get an early night tonight!

I've never made homemade cheesecake, I would love to though. I'm wondering, will my macaroni cheese be yummier with bacon bits in or tomato slices on top.. or both

 

[twinmummy06]

if mine would just behave i would love for them to come, but no, they just want to touch touch touch, and run run run. not cool in a waiting room full of hormonal pregnant women

i know its to early for a definate answer, but hey im grasping onto straws, so it will keep me optimistic until the sex scan - not that i care either way, but im severly outnumbered here lol.

BOTH Wiggler, both! mmmmmmmmm yum!

 

[Wiggler]

Aww bless! I dont want to be outnumbered either, I would love a little girl. Only 5 weeks til i find out!

I am not looking forward to lunch time, I have to tell OH I don't want more children after this baby. I would LOVE to have another after this one, but I can't do this to myself again, I hate not being able to run around with Dylan, take a nice walk or even just tidy up without having to sit down every few minutes to rest my pelvis. OH will be heartbroken I am dreading it

 

[twinmummy06]

i keep forgetting all you girls due at the start of May will be finding out in a just a matter of weeks, im so jealous

sorry your having a hard time Wiggler you never know, once you hold your newest addition you forget all the pain you went through.

im off to bath my terrors and put them to bed.

 

[new_to_ttc]

Homemade cheesecake is yummy!!!

As for the extras int he mac and cheese thing... ermmm I dont know Id take out the mac and cheese and maybe just have the bacon?? lolol

Maybe wait till Dylan isnt about to talk to OH Wiggler hun, so you can talk proper. Its likely to be an emotional dscussion so you dont want Dylan seeing either of you upset. But you do have to do what is right for you and your body xxxx

 

[Wiggler]

I wish twinmummy! After I had Dylan the pain didn't go away til he was 18 months old. I'm so upset about it though, I only decided 100% yesterday. I know its the right choice for me, OH, Dylan and new bubs though. Its not fair to deprive them of an active mummy for so long.

 

[Wiggler]

Your right new, I'll probably wait until after Dylan has gone to bed tonight. The we can have a proper talk about it, not just a rushed chat when OH is home for lunch. x

 

[hopefulmama]

new- the pork was amazing, as was the pie! just didn't end up eating till 9 45

so today i woke up with a solid hard bump that is very obvious... and everything sorta feels weird down there like i'm sticking my stomach out as far as it goes and things just feel a bit smooshed.. it feels extra weird if i am just sleeping on my back, but i dread sleeping on my side because i can never get comfortable and i end up waking up every hour.

is this feeling normal?

 

[Wudluvanuva1]

Hello 16th week & my avocado
All this talk of yummy food, i went to wetherspoons with my little girl this morning but i had to leave the eggs as they were too runny
I can cook but nothing too elaborate!

Maybe bubba's had a browth spurt hopeful?

[Wiggler]

Wudluvanuva1 - OMG! I love the new bit on your siggy!

hopeful - I have major bump envy! When my bump started popping out with Dylan it felt really weird. Doesn't take too long to get used to it though

Well I talked to OH, he was great and gave me a big hug and I had a little cry. We are both happy with knowing that Dylan is happy and healthy, and this bubs will help make our family complete. I just can't help but feel upset at knowing I will deffo not be having any more kids, but it is the best decision for me and my family, and althought it will take a little bit of getting used to I know when I am older I will look back and be happy with this decision.
