Its probably a good thing you didnt go back to work. Look after yourself

congratulations on your papaya

I feel like I have regressed going from a melon to a banana

 

[molly85]

its a big banana.

ahhh iv run outta beetroot

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

Good luck tomorrow madly!!!

At the end of the day you more than likely had it last time, your baby is the evidence of that lol they cant just say it was a fluke weight last time and erase it! i keep getting told that although you are more likely to have gd a second time not everyone will! got my fingers, toes, arms and legs that you are one of the lucky ones! sounds like everything is going great so far sugar levels wise!

i have given up stressing about it! although one thing i will semi rant about is you got put on a 2 day diet with your first? i had everything you had and i was pushed out the door! hmmmmm why am i so keen to stay at the same docs as last time? maybe i should move lol!

getting fed up with being so sick now nothing is even denting it although for about half an hour after watching all the ladies given birth on one born earlier it made me realise that it is all going to be sooooo worthwhile!

hope everyone else is doing ok too! lots of scans coming up?madly cant believe your 4d is in 3 days! you must be itching with excitement!!!

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

oh oh and some melons are small like galia melonsso maybe baby was the size of a galia melon and is now the size of those big bananas you see lol xkx

 

[gilz82]

Yeah the fruit progression is weird Loopy you get to have a lovely papaya tomorrow and then you are stuck with it for a fortnight!

Molly that's weird I just finished a jar of baby beetroot not five minutes ago

 

[gilz82]

[molly85]

[molly85]

Disaster Gilz, I will have to get more and my caffiene free tea tomorrow. seeing my Endo specialist. i might walk over from tesco for a change instead paying £2 to park!!!!!

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Thanks Ladies

Whatever the outcome am happy to embrace it I just want tomorrow over and then yes NOMORE I can concentrate on my 4d scan am damn excited So is Oliver I keep saying to DH I really hope we get to see his little face at long last

Hes freaked me a little tonight must admit I realised I havent felt him move all day and then as I sat down for my last supper before the GTT tomorrow a gorgoeous salad and fresh bread rolls he decided to give me a little boot He normally has a rocket up his bum so any quiet behaviour freaks me out

I also agree Loopy hon you should be home resting

The fruit tickers are well bizare I still struggle getting my head around the 15cm onion LMAO

mmmmmmmmmmmmm I have black poopey from the iron tabs and fear constipation is on the cards too ekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk! Oh the glamour of pregnancy

 

[MADLYSBOYS]

Gilz glad your app went well and great news about the joint account, switching jobs and possibly part-time I have been a part-time mummy since having Oliver...well I work 27hrs so somewhere in the middle

 

[madcatwoman]

Madly , hope that horrible drink doesnt make you feel too grim tomorrow and all goes well

youre not the only one who 'feels huge', i dont 'look' any bigger but for 2 days now my stomach feels like it could burst wide open,i can really feel it stretching and ligaments under it aching!

[loopylollipop]

I like your thinking. Hate to think my baby is getting smaller. I guess I just buy really small bananas.

Ooooh you are moving up to an aubergine tomorrow

Good luck tomorrow Madly, I am pretty sure it will be ok

 

[loopylollipop]

Is it worth really looking for a job at this point? I mean, there's a great one I can apply for with an agency in Dundee working with children and youth with abuse problems and it looks like something right for me I'm beginning to feel so useless

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

Aw madly iron tablets almost split me in half lol lol lol lol

they gave me some after i was finally let home from hospital after ds! and she kind of laughed and said eat plenty of greens lol lol lol

i have never known so much pain and difficulty from that particular orafice before lol! it was baaaad! eat weetabix and lots of greens lol!

Oh men are so useless every time i do a few night shifts in a row i get a nasty surprise in ds's routine. the last few weeks he has woken up every night an hour after he goes to bed, so he gets some medicine as he is teething and make sure he is not hungry or thirsty before bed so i am more than confident he is just going through a waking stage and doesnt actualy need anything. the one instruction was right mr, it has taken me a week to stop him from screaming the house down for an hour after he wakes up he now just wimpers and goes backc to sleep nicely DO NOT GO UP THERE AND GIVE HIM CUDDLES IT WILL MAKE HIM GO BACK TO SCREAMING. Monday night did you go up when he cried. yes. tuesday did you go up when he cried. yes. why. he was crying for 30 minutes. you know why right. no. because you went up the night before. oh. opps.

OH OOOPS!! he has now been crying for 1.5 hours! nothing major but i hate hate hate having to be the bad guy all the time, i know he needs nothing, i know he isnt ill, hungry, thirsty, hot, cold, in pain from teething he just wants cuddles.

so i called dh a minute ago what did you do when you went up there last night ROCKED HIM TO SLEEP! HE IS 2! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

he is calming down now and i hate leaving him to it but he doesnt need anything. i told dh you realise if you rock him to sleep at 2 years old you will 1 pee me off considerably as i will be the one to fix the problem over an extended period of time and 2 you will be rocking him at 3years 4 years 5 years and then he will sleep in our bed and then we will never ever have sex again is that what you want us to never have sex again why would you do that why! - i think THINK that got the message through!

op being ranting for a while ds is finally quiet and snoring! will check on him in a min!

 

[molly85]

lol nomore i can see that being matt. i'm all for self soothing but he doesn't want me leaving abby. gah. she won't be tiny forever

 

[NOMORENUMBERS]

just checked on him he is sleeping beautifully! my dh has always been like it! because i didnt hold our ds for the first 5 days of his life and also i was made to feel really bad for having emergency section by some people i felt it like once i had him in my arms i couldnt and did not want to let him go, i rocked him to sleep for the first 2 months and have to say it was fine, didnt take long and i felt that the time when he was asleep in my arms just trusting me and getting to know me was so precious. when he hit 2 months though he started to wake a lot in the night for cuddles in addition to a milk feed and would scream and not go back to sleep and demanded me to be there at all hours of the night for a simple cuddle. honestly because dh felt sorry for him it took unti lhe was 9 months old to get him to put him self back to sleep! none of the usual tricks would work so i spent 2 months introducing different cuddlies and finally a scarf that i sewed together so it couldnt wrap round his neck was his soother of choice and 2 weeks later i was able to just quick hug and put him to bed - dh looked after him one night whilst i was at work and lets just say took another 2 weeks to get him back on track again!

That is one thing i will pass on to anyone when they are sick it is different and the rules change and you should check on them when they cry and sooth them but if you know nothing is wrong then dont do it! yeah they might fall asleep again within 5 mins that night but then the next night they will cry for longer and then longer and take longer and longer to go back to sleep until you are rocking a 2 year old to sleep lol

if only there was a naughty step big enough for dh to sit on when he breaks the rules lol - i am going to get so many "i hate you mum dad is sooo much cooler than you"s later on in life arent i grrrrrr lol

Am glad am not on my own all my sides ache and I feel like am on the verge of combusting and Charlie keeps sticking his feet under my right rib

Am having eating probs as well I can hardly eat during the day even the tiniest meal is too much...like half a sandwich or today two pieces of bacon and a fried egg left me so full I felt like I had just pigged out at a eat all you can buffet I felt like a teletubby with such a full belly I could hardly walk Then on a evening am bloody starving and could eat my right arm I am probably drinking far too much diet coke on my working days but funny it kinda gives me an energy boost as my energy vanishes at around 12.30-1.00pm I think I could do with hibernating for the next 3 months and am a bad mummy cause tonight I fed my son a pasty, crisps and a bun for his tea because I could not be arsed to cook for us I dont do this everyday I promise but Greggs on the way home seemed like such a good idea eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!
