***May Blossoms Due Dates Join Here**47 Babies Born!***

I know this is probably going to sound abit mad, but I have started eating baby jars.... As its all lump free and bland for baby tummies, I thought it might be an idea, and at the moment I only like cold food, so have started having a savoury and then a sweet jar if I feel to yucky to cook etc, as although they are only small, there is a little bit of nutrition in there.

Exits thread like this....

I find that if I eat, it calms me down... if I'm already gagging, I pretty much have to see it through... but even just the feel of a saltine on my tongue can stop me from gagging when I just feel awful. I just keep eating all day long.
I was actually about to complain about how tired I am of food.... I'm sick of stuffing stuff in my face all day.

Haha, I love baby food, lol. I only dare try the fruit ones, but they are YUMMY!

I'm going to get some sea bands tomorrow i think!

I'm feeling so sick so anythings worth a try. But not until after scan, don't want to jinx it lol

Congratulations wiggler- I'll add you now

Got my morning sickness checklist for the grocery store: seabands, canned peaches, plain cookies, and a jar or two of baby fruit jars. Hopefully that will help keep it at bay somewhat but if someone pukes in front of me tonight nothing will probably save me. You ladies are the best Now if only I could convince myself to eat something.

And mouthwash to take away the awful taste. xx

 

[lisaf]

oh yes, I need to buy a toothbrush at work 'just in case'

Oh... my acupuncturist swears by ginger tea.. made with fresh ginger root... you skin it, chop it and boil it in water. I haven't had MS bad enough to bother going to the store for ginger root, but it sounds kind of yummy to me, lol.
Right now the thought of drinking anything hot is just too much for me...
So far a cooler day with temps in the high 80s, but its only noon... 2pm is usually the peak. Yikes...

Feeling sick again.

 

[Wiggler]

Any of you ladies drinking Lucozade (not sure if its sold in USA) i feel REALLY ill if i eat/drink anything so i sip Lucozade during the day and then i can eat! Starting to get a bit sick of the taste of it now though, bit sweet for me.

 

[lisaf]

is that like pedialyte?

 

[Wiggler]

No, its a bright orange glucose energy drink. got nearly no caffiene in it, which isnt bad (0.012%). just loaded to the brim with sugar.

 

[charlotteb24]

I sipped lucozade with noah! I was REALLY sick with ms with noah, i became intollerant to milk, cheese and pretty much any dairy products until i was about 12 weeks gone! it was awful!
I'm actually worried this time that i'm not feeling sick as everyone else seems to be! not that i want to as i know how awful it is from the last time around lol!
But the tiredness and the dizzy spells like i'm going to pass out are enough for me to cope with, with having a 19 month old to run around after an a job to keep down haha!

Can't remember who asked lol but i'm coping fine at the moment with little boy and being pregnant, not sure how easy it will be when i start getting a bump and low on energy! but at the moment it doesn't feel much different

 

[Wiggler]

i understand the tiredness while running round after a toddler! dylan is 2 next month and love keeping me running about.

hun dont worry about not feeling as sick as last time, i feel much better this time round, just a bit icky after i eat. (i'm still searching for that perfect food though)

 

[lisaf]

That drink sounds horrible! LOL! Wonder if it works like the canned fruit syrup though?
I do find that juice helps me take the edge off the nasuea if its so bad that I am having trouble even thinking about food. In fact, first thing I do every morning is take a swig of juice and within a few minutes I can actually contemplate breakfast where at first I'm just too desperately nauseous to even think about or prepare food.

 

[Wiggler]

yea its probably got something to do with the sugar.

Anyways ladies, i am absolutely shattered, i'm going to curl up in bed and read until i pass out

oooh, just realised.. only 2 more sleeps til i get my new phone

night night xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi ladies

My symptoms are fading, Im REALLY starting to worry Im hardly sicky at all, infact cant think of a time today that I was, a little bit after a Mac Ds milkshake but then that is heavy and sickly at the best of times. And its 10pm and usually I am dead on my feet by now, but I feel awake, and Ive done an extra shift at work and it didnt phase me, Tuesday are my hell day, and I dont feel tired Everyone keeps tellng me its normal for it all to calm down, but they told me that last time at 9 weeks when my symptoms vanished and I found out 3 weeks later the HB had stopped at 9 weeks and I had an MMC Im proper getting worked up, I dont know what to do

 

[lisaf]

aw TTC None of us know for sure whats happening... even you, right?
I thought I was reading in my book that hormones are peaking soon and symptoms should ease off.... you had the MS so bad at first that I would think its possible you hit your peak and its now leveling off a little.
While its true things stopped at 9w before, you know the HCG/hormones didn't just vanish even if your symptoms did ease off.
I thought you'd been getting gradually better this time... so its more of a tolerance build-up?

I haven't been there, but whats going to happen will happen (meaning good things too!). Call your midwife and share your worries with her and see what she says.
Hang in there! The odds are in your favor!

 

[charlotteb24]

Aww hunny if you are that worried then go speak to someone as worrying isn't going to be good for you. Maybe due to the circumstances of losing a baby around this point last time they can do an early scan for you? or another scan if you have already had one?
They keep saying to me (friends that is) that every pregnancy is different and i feel completely different to what i did 1st time, so i guess you have to try and treat it like that but i can fully understand that its easier said than done!

wriggler - thanks for that! it makes me feel a bit better knowing that i'm not the only one with less symptoms 2nd time around!

Can't decide whether to eat and then go to bed or just go to bed, either way, i'm shattered!

 

[lisaf]

I always eat before bed... hoping it will stave off that morning starvation feeling, lol!

 

[mummy3]

new can you speak to your mw and get another scan, or get a private one? My symptoms eased for a few days and I got worried, then again blast they hit again. You could be having a few good days.

Ladies in the states, lucozade is kinda like fizzy gatorade! Pretty good stuff if you are ill!

Now on the toddler front, I have a 2 1/2 year old and a 1 year old, both mobile to chase,

Now I have a question... anyone with itchy boobs? Its even waking me in the night!

Also anyone really really constipated? I aint been since last monday owch!
