Morning lovlies!

been wriggling around all night, then i had to get up at 4 for another wee, took me ages to get off to sleep again.

boy its cold, and the heating was on this morning!, i dont know where the heat goes in this house (its well insulated).

Morning Madcat...Ladies

Feeling a tad better today Still have barking cough and nasty abdominal pains but none the less trying to remain upbeat Spoke to my boss to update him and feel better having explained the situation.....who would think I have been so ill these past 4wks mainly due to a urine infection I never knew it could make a person so ill

We listened to baby Charlie before bed last night and he was moving about in there and kept kicking the doppler the little monkey

I am watching the planets funniest animals how funny and my plans for today are very little although I must attempt to try and muster enough energy to drag the vacumn around my house its beginning to deteriorate in cleanliness which is really hard for me esp having OCCD

madcat hon bizarely even with uti I havent woken up in night for a pee for sometime now wonder if thats a bad thing or not

baby Charlie is `swimming` again as DH likes to call it

 

[madcatwoman]

Glad to hear your home madly, drag that vacum round but dont go too OTT!!.

i didnt think a urine infection would have that many symptoms at all!, ive never had one(&hopefully i wont) so i dont know.

I now have to dry my hair, get dressed and go and post a letter & then tidy up.

Morning girls

Glad you are a wee bit better today Madly and yay for movement Madcat although not the lack of sleep.

I'm just back from the docs I now have a full blown kidney infection. Was up half the night and you couldn't see through my sample there was so much protein and blood in it. Got antibiotics and strict instructions to rest or it'll be off to hospital for me.

Do any of you girls have a pregnancy pillow? I really think I might need to get one as I just can't get comfy at all at night and that's without a bump yet

oh noo your poor kidney!!, you dont need this is pregnancy. (what happened to the other kidney??).
I dont have a pillow but i have been wondering if i could do with one, although i might just try and ordinary pillow between my legs for now, my bump can get a tiny bit uncomfy in the night, not too bad though,(id love to sleep on my stomach though!), my back seems to ache a bit these days(or nights rather)

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Thank you madcat and gilz

Yes apparently a UTI can make you tired,dizzy,sick,sleepy all to name but a few....basically the way I have been feeling of course I have had a cold/flu bug as well so that hasnt helped....I never knew it could make one so sick but apparently they can be nasty little bugs

Oh no Gilz hon sorry to hear you are under house arrest too Glad you got anitbiotics hon

I feel like my VJ is been torn apart so I am waiting for a Dr to call me back for advice more than anything am not sure I can live all week with this feeling its not nice at all So if I cant have antibiotics I want to know what I can do to try and help things cause right now I am struggling to walk properly

 

[gilz82]

I had recurring infections in my other kidney since I was about 18. Basically everytime you get an infection it scars your kidney tissue and my right kidney ended up very small and mostly scarred. Came to the point it was actually hurting me not helping.

Urine and kidney infections are really common in pregnancy, just worse for me cos I only have one. Such is life though and to be honest it maybe sounds a bit daft but I don't really care about my kidney. I just don't want it to have an negative effect on the baby.

I've tried the pillow between my legs thing and I still end up with a sore back. I'm the same as you I always slept on my tummy so all this sleeping on my left is still pretty weird for me.

Oh and Madly I'm really confused why they won't give you antibiotics. Usually drs are very keennto treat a uti so that it doesn't end up in your kidneys esp when pregnant.

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

I never even knew about urine infections been so bad Gilz hon until MW explained last night You poor thing but thats exactly how I have felt too....I have been so worried and comcerned about the effect on baby Charlie I dont think it has been helping matters but I cant just switch off the feeling of worry

I have a memory foam pregnancy support cushion its ace this is mine I got it from ebay doesnt take over the bed but does the job better than a simple wedge....I have even used mine as a pillow when my back/pelvis has been hurting and have had THE best nights sleep I may have to invest in a wedge for later on in preggo for my knees when I am heavier but right now this is great!

[gilz82]

Thanks Madly think I'll invest in one of those.

 

[madcatwoman]

Ohhh all these infections sound real nasty, i hope to god i dont get one

ive just been to our village papershop, the woman in there looked at me and asked if i was expecting (LOL...good job im not just fat!!).
im wondering if i look bigger to others than i do to myself(?)

 

[Ozzieshunni]

Yeah, true, but it's just a temporary job for a while until we leave in December for California

Hey Ozzie congratulations on your prune! It doesnt seem two mins since your LO was a wee apple seed.

Whereabouts are you from in sunny CA? My dad and brother live there.

My family lives about 30-45 minutes out of San Francisco

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Your welcome Gilz hon....I love my pillow

Maybe we do look more preggo to other people madcat hon I have had a good few stares and lots of HUGE bump comments I dont really see it only when I take a pic of myself

I GOT ANTIBIOTICS The Dr called me back and said it def sounds like a UTI and she doesnt understand why I wasnt given them yesterday a bit pissed as I could be on treatment now and feeling better but at least I have treatment now...I just have to collect a prescription from my surgery

Morning all. Madly I think this is mine https://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3023792/Trail/searchtext>EXERCISE+BALL.htm and it's 65cm. I think bigger is better but more expensive!

I don't need to pee in the night anymore either. Not for weeks now.

UTIs can be very bad in pregnancy, they can cause bleeding and alsorts. I'm glad it's not gone up into your kidneys Madly.

Gilz - I have a pregnancy wedge. A tenner form Mothercare and excellent. Couldn't sleep without it. I find anything bigger makes me uncomfortable but this supports my bump. Last pregnancy I tried pillows between my knees and a variety of other positions and they all disturbed my sleep and gave me even more aching body parts. Sorry your kidney is bad.

I'm in the office! I have a headache though. And lots of Thorntons.

I am looking very pregnant for sure but I know it never matters how pregnant you look if people want to ignore it and be rude they will. Today in the lift at work one of my colleagues looked at me (long wool coat unbottoned) and said "oh you're pregnant". It's so nice that I look it enough for her to feel able to say that and not just wonder if I'm fat!!

 

[Ozzieshunni]

I'm starting to get uncomfortable sleeping. My hips and lower back ache in the mornings I don't have a bump or anything.....is that a bad thing?
