Puppy – Is the horrid taste you describe something along the lines of a dirty penny? A mix of vomit and metal? That was probably one of the WORST symptoms I had with ALL of my pregnancies, successful and not. Around 7-8 weeks I develop the horrible taste and it lasts until a week or two after delivery. It sounds minor enough, “just a bad taste”, but to be honest I thought it was worse than the nausea and vomiting because it was there all the time, 24 hours a day. I hope your bad taste is only temporary!!
QUOTE]

It's hard to describe! I suppose it could be like a metal taste. It's just a really nasty taste! Lol.

I am hoping it doesn't hang around but given that i still have it now i'm guessing it's here to stay! It has made me sick in the past and it makes things taste really nasty!

Well girls i'm at my wits end with my daughter. I know they say the 'terrible twos' but this is ridiculous. Literally everything she has ever been told not to do is done on a daily basis and no amount of anything can stop her. It is so hard not to lose my temper with her, especially when she continually says 'no' - what am i supposed to do??? I am really not sure if i can cope with her behavious atm. Nursery said yesterday that she bit another child, she's never bitten before, and this morning she had taken her nappy off and shit all over everything in her room. She has done that before but a very long time ago.

I'm at my wits end.

 

[daviess3]

Ah puppy, must b so hard to b pg an deal with 2's! Take deep breath (obviously not in her room lol) an remember all good points at least you should b past this stage by time baby comes? X

 

[bumpyplease]

sorry you are struggling puppy! do you think it might be an attention thing, especially if she has only just started doing it? are you still feeling ill as well?

congrats on the betas mom2, congrats on getting to the last box lou, and happy 11 weeks Jen - lots of congrats today i love it!

hope scans go well today heart and embo. there are lots of boys on here at the moment so i think you are both going to be blessed with lovely little girlies! lets see if im right! i love davies idea of guessing though!!!!

I think my morning sickness is just beginning to start, im having waves of feeling yucky but they pass as quickly as they start. its not stopping my love of food just yet though! day 2 of no chocolate, cakes and biscuits for lent and i need distracting! lol

 

[bumpyplease]

oh and happy 17 weeks davies and happy 5 weeks mom2!

 

[jenny25]

Amanda good luck for your scan today xx

 

[filipenko32]

Bumps are you going to find out your beta doubling time today or will you not bother since your first was spot on for six weeks? I'm not sure I would bother but curiosity might get the better of me!

Good luck heart!

 

[puppycat]

Somebody did say about attention and i was inclined to agree because i've literally been so poorly up to now i probably haven't been around much. Since then though i've read her books, done floor puzzles with her, sat her on my lap to watch her favourite things, praised her when she is good or helpful, given her lots of hugs and told her mummy loves her. I don't expect change overnight but she seems to be getting worse with attention not better! Sigh.

 

[filipenko32]

Good luck to you too embo!

 

[filipenko32]

You might just have to ride the storm of the terrible twos puppy. But if it is an attention thing then consistency is the most important way to deal with it. I was a reception teacher for 2 years I know they were older than Laura so it might not help but I advised parents about this and did it myself. if you give her attention then lose it with her 3 days later then back on attention again she will get the link ie if she's never naughty she won't finally get more good attention from you iykwim! but if you're doing all that already then it's just normal to got throughout terrible twos! Hope that helps

 

[puppycat]

It definitely helps Fili. Sometimes you just need to know that it's all normal and not a reflection on you as a parent. Thanks

 

[bumpyplease]

i have no experience myself but it sounds like you are doing everything right pups! some of my friends have had probs with the terrible two's and try really encouraging and praising them when they are good and making it clear they are being naughty and you wont tolerate it when they are being naughty. Sometimes the extra praise and treats but only when they are being good has helped in the past.

fili - my doc is phoning me this afternoon to discuss my results, i have a feeling she wont give me the actual figures and will just let me know if they are ok or not. she seemed reluctant to give me figs yesterday anyway. I think its because once you get to a certain stage (around where i am now) they dont always double as quickly as they do in the beginning, (hence why a scan is more accurate) they tend to increase slower and eventually plateau and she knows i will google and worry unnessarily! so as long as she tells me things are ok i will listen to her and not think any more of it! lol

 

[filipenko32]

Id do exactly the same bumps, will be thinking of you x x
Puppy of you were a terrible parent you wouldn't be on here sharing your concerns you'd be out doing more fun things like smoking and drinking like I feel like doing on a daily basis ATM!! X x (but don't!) taken up coffee tho

 

[daviess3]

Embo where's pic then lets start guessing? What a lovely day today ladies? X

 

[3xscharmer]

Puppy - I am so sorry about your daughter acting out. Mine is only 15 months and must be starting hers early...scratch that, this child was born with an attitude and WILL NOT LISTEN to a word I say, she wants to chew on eletrical cords (which are plugged in) and I am terrified she's going to electricute herself, so I tell her NO, spank her little hand and pull her away and 5 minutes later she's back at it! Maybe your LO just realizes that changes are happening and needs reasurance?? Kids are very preceptive.

Heart - I just know you're scan will be fine and you'll have a beautiful pic to show us....hope they can get a peak at the gender!!

Bumpy - Good luck with the results honey, I'm sure they'll be great though!

 

[bumpyplease]

Can't wait for these scans girls and to find out what you are having!! Sooooo excited!
Davies don't think embos scan is until 6pm. You are right it's beautiful out there and so hot too - being on spring!!

No results for me today girls, doc just phoned and they are not back. So she's phoning me tomorrow now!

 

[jenny25]

I'm just back from a walk in the park with the dog more like she took me for a walk I'm pooped now lol it's so warm here today I love this weather x

 

[hopeful23456]

happy 5 weeks mom2!
happy 11 weeks Jen!
happy 17 weeks davies!

I can't believe how many people are on this board, it's awesome. I am on another PAL forum on babycenter thats girls that have no children, had multiple mc/s and now are preg. Its crazy as we just got 4 more girls there too! one of them after 6 mcs and she's 38 (this is her first time on lovenox). it's amazing, these girls are getting their first good scans w/heartbeats too.

hoping more girls from the rpl m/c thread here make it here soon.

And Fili- there is something in the air, you are going to be bfp again before you know it.

puppy - no advice as i've never been around kids for that long (yet) but that sucks, so hard to be sick off and on, preg, and taking care of a little one.

embo and heart - can't wait for good news!

bumpy - wish she could have given you numbers! i know you are fine though, just fun to hear the numbers

lou- it's rare i've seen someone on the last ticker, you can tracie are the only ones I think? i can't wait to hear how the home birth goes, are you going to have it videotaped?

 

[Embo78]

Scans at 6pm. Please cross everything that it doesn't get postponed again!
