*** NOVEMBER 2011 BABIES ! *** Chrysanthe-Mums - 39 babies here already!!!

[LoolaBear]

Welcome Anidae, Barb210 and Patience4Baby!

Anidae, I'm sending you lots and lots of sticky

babyhopes - lovely lovely lines!

I've found my saviour: Coke! A little glass and the nausea becomes bearable for a little while Hope I find a healthier alternative, but for now, Coke it is!

off to cook for the kiddos

when i had bad MS with the twins the doctor actually prescribed me coke! she said to take a sip or two lying down before getting up, get up slowly then spend the rest of the day sipping coke, (only a can a day though due to the caffiene) it contains an equal level of sugar and salts that are safe during pregnancy and they help settle the stomach. x

I actually have something called cola syrup which is supposed to help with simple nausea. Its basically coke concentrate that you pour over crushed ice. Very nice.

sounds delicious! i really want to try some of that! but we dont get it in the UK i think

I am switching up, one day I feel bloated and then the next day I feel great, then back to being bloated. I gave up trying to figure out why. I go to my first appt tomorrow and I had to get all my reports from the perinatal center together about my last pg and started reading them, they make me sad but I can only hope and pray we get better news this time around.

Hi Ladies

Sorry to come in late but can I join please?? I am due 1st November, have only just noticed this thread x

 

[Rebecca_B]

Hey November mums, i've got a thread in 'the lounge' under 'pregnancy group/discussion' for November sparklers if you fancy adding your EDD? Be nice to see everyone and where we all are!!!

I did post on here a wk ago but it got un-noticed with the conversation flow.....

Rebecca

aw Rebecca sorry you went unnoticed!! Congratulations and Welcome will go and check out the lounge

and Congratulations and Welcome to Nat too

Drgomps thanks for the cola syrup tip - no idea if you can get that here.. never seen it, but it sounds good!!!

Loola that's funny your doc prescribed it. Yeah, I keep thinking about the caffeine too.. and trying to be spare with drinking it and only by little sips. But it's so good.. I almost don't feel sick right now I hear ya with sore boobs.. mine are sore too and my toddler keeps jumping on them and elbowing me lol. ouch!

not feeling bloated, but tired yes..

davo - I had the most awful heartburn with my other 2 and my saviour for those pregnancies was Maalox. I couldn't stomach Gaviscon.. made me feel so sick, but Maalox was ok. I'm hopeing I don't get it this time round *touch wood*.

So am feeling a bit better thanks to the good ol' Coke! and managed to eat some pasta!

Good luck for those of you having scans tomorrow!! keep us updated!!!

 

[babyhopes2010]

i soooooooooooooo tired,dont think i ever been so sleepy

 

[Emx]

Evening ladies... I cautiously posted last week that I should have a due date of about November 13th. I am definitley late for AF now and my test lines are a nice healthy pink now so I feel confident enough to add my pregnancy ticker!! Yay!

Am also feeling like poo and finding it harder this time around with the demands of a 11 months old.. I just used to go to bed and sleep when I felt yuck when pregnant first time!

Congratulations to all the new Crysanthe mums who have got their BFPs xx

I already feel huge, DH thinks i am imaging it, but even some of my coworkers have commented. Ugh...also the worst headache today...boss is out of town, may slip out of work and go to bed early. Feel completely exhausted...even though I slept a good 9 hours!!!

 

[myasmumma]

yeh i felt great this morning but then about two hours later i turnt bloated..and felt like i could sleep but kept myself busy making cookies with mya i didnt have symptoms with mya so i dont know whether these are me making them up just for the sake of feeling pregnant haha xx

 

[fides]

welcome, nat, & congrats to the darker lines, emx!


i was really, really bloated this weekend, but i think it was b/c i wasn't following my pregnancy menu - ate a bit of processed foods and some sugary ones as well. back to eating healthy today, so i'm not as bloated.

 

[LoolaBear]

i am having serious sweet cravings! ive just driven to tescos and brought home some pancakes and golden syrup and eaten 4 already! i jsut so badly needed them i have made myself feel ill now though typical.
need to make sure i dont eat too much sweet stuff though as i dont want to develop gestational diabetes lol and i dont want to gain rediculous amounts of weight as for me personally i know it helps me to heal better after birth or a c-section.

 

[repogirl813]

bloated check, sore boobs check, heartburn check!! But yes the bloatedness is enough on it's own I look like I'm like 3 or 4 months pregnant not 5 weeks with a little tiny appleseed in there!!!

 

[repogirl813]

funny thing is as soon as I start to think I'm doing good that day all the symptoms just hit me like a ton of bricks!!!

 

[qwk]

welcome to the NUMEROUS new additions today!

fides - hilarious, i will have to show DH a lentil too when we get there!!

babyhopes - congrats on your lines, i knew they would darken!

rebecca - aw, do not feel bad, this thread gets an intense amount of traffic, it's really hard to follow!!

get my second HCG counts tomorrow, fingers crossed for a big (but not toooo big) number!

also i second the bloating. it's been my main symptom. i also started getting those little nip bumps on saturday.. tubercules or whatever. DH finds all these random symptoms funny

My gosh, speaking of cravings..... I need to buy myself a dang COW to keep up with all the milk I am craving... I woke up at 3am NEEDING milk, tried drinking a cold glass of water, but no... had to have milk.... chocolate milk is better but I am trying to watch excess calories... I guess its better than pickles and ice cream right?

 

[repogirl813]

lol my craving has been pizza product anything pizza at all and I generally don't really care for pizza so it's def odd
