So I guess this is my first Nine Month Wait...

[Kelly9]

I am tired! Got soooooo much reading to do tonight, if I did it all like close to 200 pages (it's a smaller book but still! dry reading ugh) I am aiming for 100 pages tonight, just the basics I know I will need soon.

I got a weird issue. I am finding that I don't want to eat. Nothing is appealing. Has this happened to any of you? I am not concerned about baby not getting enough as I take my vits and make myself eat as I still do get hungry but I find I get hungry less often. Hmmm, thought I would start eating more soon! Not less!

 

[meldmac]

Sorry haven't been around much just wanted to stop in and say hi and hope you are all doing well

 

[Mrs_N]

kelly I've been like that for the last couple of months, nothing really appeals! then i hear someone talking about a certain food, or an ad comes on and I have to have it lol!

so so sleepy, urgh I hate doing nights!

 

[dmn1156]

kelly i have been like that for months nothing appeals i eat for the sake of the nutrients but dont seem to enjoy any food i eat just dont fancy any of it but like Mrs N said you may see a food and think got to have that

Mrs N cant believe your doing nights at the moment that must be so draining

afm another bad night just cant get comfortable to sleep lie on my side it hurts lie on my back get neck ache just cant win so im getting between 3 maybe 4 hours asleep a night which is ok i can survive on that just feel a bit moody all the time oh and very snappy lol

 

[Csunshine013]

Hello Meldmac so glad to see you!
Hope your well!!!

kelly you know I eat, LOL it's all I talk about but tbh the heartburn is kicking my ass! I have come to the conclusion that the only food I can eat is bread and water without getting it Oh and cucumber salad isn't giving me it atm

dmn I have a hard time getting comfortable but once I'm there I don't move. Hope you get some rest before Lucie gets here. FXD that you find your dryer soon as well

afm tired but slept well so don't know what's up with that????? I had a pop tart this am for breakfast and heartburn ARGH I really wanted taco's for lunch but wont due to the heartburn probably get a can soup or something like that.

 

[dmn1156]

Csunshine heartburn is the worst im with you nothing you seem to eat makes a difference i still get it i ordered my dryer they are going to phone with a delivery date tomorrow. I think as for the sleep thing i am just going to have to persevere and see how i go surely got to get to the point im so tired il want to sleep lol

 

[Csunshine013]

Yeah when you can't see and are too exhausted to move maybe recline in a chair??? Just a thought.

Yeah for the new dryer!

 

[dmn1156]

il give anything a go at the moment lol oh and my dryer is arriving friday so relieved about that

how is your day going so far

 

[westbrja]

Hey there! Hope everyone is good.
Dmn - Yay for the dryer coming
Csunshine - I never had heartburn with either baby but this one is a different story. The only time I seem to get it tho is at nite. Never during the day and it doesn't matter if I sit up several hours after eating. Keep a bottle of tums at all times.
Kelly - A couple more weeks til we hit viability. Yay!!
Meldmac - Nice to hear from you.
AFM - I've really been enjoying my few weeks off school. I've got some spring cleaning done and been spending some family time together. The weathers been decent most days here so we've been outside alot. Not much to report baby-wise. Just watching the ticker tick by slowly.

 

[Kelly9]

Hope you sleep better DMN, try propping yourself up at an angle to help keep the burn out of your esophagus.

Csunshine, no heart burn really for me yet that wasn't caused by nothing that is. I know if I eat a certain food it will trigger but that was before pregnancy to.

As for eating, I did eat something yummy tonight! SUSHI!!!!! YUM third time this pregnancy. I hope my baby liked it! It tasted wonderful.

Baby has been great at locating my bladder lately! I think he might have changed position? Feels like the kicks and punches are in different spots. Just today he was getting me on the left and right side? A fist and a foot maybe?

West, yes I am very exciting for hitting 24 weeks! Under three to go! Then it's just a hop skip and jump to third try!

Ps I love the smiley!!! HAHAHAHA

 

[wannabeamom]

hi guys
glad you are well mrs n make sure you are getting plenty of rest with those nights xx

anyone got any tips on getting comfy at night? i usually sleep on my tummy but have now got to the stage where its not possible, tried going on my side with a pillow to prop me up but i think its too big and i end up waking up on my back which is painful x

 

[dmn1156]

Thanks kelly i actually managed to get to sleep sleeping propprd at an angle with pillows still feel really tired but that is just lost sleep lol better get used to that lol but it was nice to get at least 5 6 hrs sleep obviously had the toilet jaunts to deal with but straight back off to sleep so feel a bit better. Babies are great at finding your bladder you may find now that he may be head down glad you enjoyed the sushi

west glad your doing ok

wannabe try like kelly said sleeping slightly propped up or you can buy one of the pregnancy pillows my friend said it is the best thing she ever bought but im not going to bother at this late stage

 

[Csunshine013]

Hello ladies hope you're all doing well!

West glad your enjoying your spring break. LOL

wannab I have a pillow I prop up under my knee, I sleep kinda on my side but rolled towards my belly but the pillow is a big relief! Try putting a pillow along your back to keep you from rolling over.

Kelly so glad you found something you wanted to eat. LOL Even if it was a banned product. LMAO jk They say it's fine. I don't eat the stuff personally so that wouldn't be a temptation.

afm just plodding along nothing new.

Oh wait you all should go to my journal and post your gender guesses it's only 6 days until my scan!

 

[Kelly9]

As long as you're smart about where you eat sushi it's safe. I still don't do it as often though. But it is a nice treat every couple of months or so.

DMN glad it worked for you! As for baby he's was head down from sometime before my 16 week scan till after my 19 week one I am thinking he's changed position from that though. He has been standing on his head for a long time but the kicks are coming from different places now then when he was. Just last night he kept kicking way over on my left side like in the middle of the side of my body! I didn't think my uterus was over that far to the side! I wonder if that means I"ll be carrying on my sides.... interesting.

 

[dmn1156]

i feel the movements to the side midwife said it is where baby's space is starting to cramp so there movements are felt more from the side cos they punch and kick outwards feels strange tho especially when i know she is lying head down and her back is against my side lol

I feel really fed up today no idea why nothing specific maybe it is more boredom got no housework to do no ironing nothing lol i cant wait for the boys to break up from school at least then we can go swim trips to the park anything else but my own company tried going to school to help out there but they said go home put your feet up were fine here see you when your ready to come back in a few months or so charming lol

 

[wannabeamom]

lol dmn do you wanna come and do my housework?? we are having a new bathroom so the whole house is upside down with mess and its driving me crazy!!

 

[dmn1156]

happy to wannabe lol

 

[Kelly9]

I have been keeping up on house work ok, sometimes it gets messier then I want but with school and being pg and soon (monday) new job starting I think I am handling it all well.

 

[Mrs_N]

We are still trying to sort our house out - moved in a year ago & don't have proper homes for some things yet!!

Just finished my last night shift yay! Now home, sleep for a few hours, up at lunchtime then I should be back to normal sleep patterns!

 

[Mrs_N]

OOoh look at that - 4th ticker box!
