Urgh.

Sickness is back. Throwing up in the mornings and then nausea all day. I can't really eat again, I feel like my body just can't take anything to eat.

I've just spent 20mins throwing up and it was disgusting sour/curdled/off milk but I haven't eaten or drank anything this morning yet so it must have been sitting in my stomach since yesterday It was disgusting! OH is in bed having a lie in, and the bathroom is next to the bedroom and he didn't even get up to help with LO, he did let me lie in bed most of yesterday though. Argghh.

Can you have a temporary intolerance to milk in pregnancy? I think it's giving me trapped wind, sickness and making me feel tired and sluggish? I've always drank around a pint a day before pregnancy!

I also have a horrible throat/eat infection I'm exhausted and my whole body hurts.

And to top it off I am getting terrible insomnia, I'm awake all night and then needing to nap during the day but I can't really take anything useful for it!

I know exactly how you feel! I've been having morning sickness on and off, but it arrives most days. And when I'm not actually sick and throwing up, I'm just nauseous all day. Very similar to a hangover. Which sucks bc I'm not even drinking alcohol. I too got sick one morning when trying to drink a cup of milk. I love milk and have always drank lots of it but for some reason that morning, all it took was one sip and it was game over and I was in the bathroom. It made me so sad bc milk is really the only thing I can say I love to have lol but I waited a week or two and I tried to drink it again and I didn't get sick that time. So I'm hoping it was just a weird morning for me. Hope your sickness goes away soon! And if it makes you feel any better, I feel your pain.

Good morning Ladies!
It's been quite a while since I've been able to visit, but as you can see from my previous post, I've been quite sick for the last few weeks. I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe Christmas holiday and New Year. I have my second ultrasound coming up next Monday so I'm really hoping to hear baby's heartbeat. I'll be almost 11 weeks when we go for that appointment so I'm very hopeful. Anyway, just dropping by since I haven't posted in a while. I hope everyone is doing well, and if you ladies are sick, I hope you start to feel better soon.

So excited...my babycentre app tells me that as of tomorrow I have less than 200 days. And I'm starting to get my bump and can feel my uterus poking out over my pubic bone. So excited!!!! Getting my doppler tomorrow too, i'm guessing that I won't get much done tomorrow evening lol.

 

[stardust599]

Thanx for the sympathy Newlywed!! It helps to know I'm not alone! Get a piccy at your scan so we can see!

km.. I can't feel my uterus yet - I've been checking but I'm quite kind of muscly/athletic in my stomach and the MW couldn't pinpoint where my uterus was til 25 weeks last time All I can feel is hardness and can't feel underneath I also didn't get a bump til I was way over 30 weeks!! I have pics of me somewhere I'll have to hunt them out. It's uncomfortable to lie on my lower tummy now so at least that's something. Haha dopplers are so much fun, good luck! Have you used one before? Go down really low like on the line of your pubes and press in really hard towards your back and bum! And just move it in a 360 slowly and if you don't hear anything move it over an inch and try again!

 

[kmbabycrazy]

I've not used one before so thanks for the tips. I figured i'd have to be pretty low down lol. I'm so excited.
And I'm not at all muscly in the stomach area I have the thighs of a rugby player (I did ballet for 11 years) but my tummy isn't toned at all. I had a bit of a bump at 16 weeks last time and started feeling LO kick at 15 weeks last time so hoping it won't be that long till I can feel squidge moving around in there.

But I knew someone who was a size 8 when they gave birth, they didn't even know they were pregnant. SO I know that those kinds of things can happen. Have you ever watched the film of Cats. The white cat who does the ballet dancing in memories was 8 months pregnant when that was filmed...bitch lol.

Saying that though I loved having a bump and can't wait to get all huge and fat, I really can't!!!!

 

[molly85]

what the hell have i been feeling i thought my uterus was well up. that whole area aches constantly

 

[misse04]

I've had really weird pains across my stomach like much higher up than 'period' feeling cramp. No idea what that is... x

 

[molly85]

No thanks hun. Mine is hardwork. She isn't sleeping AGAIN! She's awesome though, she's like my own little sunshine

 

[molly85]

she finally gave up now i have to move my ass to put her to bed

 

[Mosnippy]

lol you ladies make me laugh!

i love my doppler and can find chicken little so quick now, love hearing that sound, althought the heartbeat is higher then my pubic bone, sort of to the left but halfway between belly button and pubic bone, the kids love it and keep recording it lol just so i can listen to it randomly... can you tell its my first???

havent been sick in over a week (touch wood lol) but have moments where i think i am but it goes.. still cant eat most things tho.. but do have a craving this week for banana nesquik milkshakes my sinful pleasure at the moment...

cant beleive we all zooming to second trimester, we be there so soon. i have 10 days till scan...cant damn well wait..

 

[molly85]

Less than a week here till scan I'm wetting myself nearly literally

 

[mommy2be1003]

I love the doppler takes me a minute to find the heartbeat but i get so happy whenh i hear it

 

[Mosnippy]

lol nappy?

 

[molly85]

not yet just smell a bit of wee lol I'll go nappy when the dear sweet creature starts jumping on my bladder

 

[Mosnippy]

Lol just squirt some body spray!! Lol oh the things we put ourselves through

 

[Koolmami]

Mosnippy - oh no poor you the Dr's know exactly what they are doing though and will keep you safe and healthy. how are you getting on with the doppler now? i haven't got one yet, we are on a majorly tight budget and money saving so i think i might have to give it a miss this time! i have my scan on the 18th anyway at 13 weeks and then will have a scan at 20 weeks and hopefully proper movements soon after to reassure me!

Koolmami - I have chronic insomnia It's quite severe and sometimes interferes with my ability to work or drive so I have been taking promethazine hydrochloride the past few days which is sometimes prescribed for morning sickness. It hasn't helped though! I find lavendar oil really helps too. Do you want the nuchal scan (for downs syndrome and other major choromomal abnormalities) as if so I would ring the midwifes as it can't be done after around 13 weeks. We get our scan dates about 6 weeks before here.

Hope everyone else is good too xx

Hey! I can't really complain about my insomnia then as it only lasted a few days so far. Poor you! I hope you feel better soon. I said yes to pretty much every scan/test so not sure what the midwife will be doing when. I'll give her a call tomorrow. I forgot my mobile at home (baby brain already!) Hahaha. x

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Got my doppler this lunch time. Can't wait to go home and try it out. I've decided if I don't find it today I will put it away until Saturday because I'll be 12 weeks then and it's OH's day off so we can look for it together then.

So annoyed because my sickness has come back and now i'm absolutely exhausted all the time...I just want to sleep until the baby's ready to come lol.

 

[Mosnippy]

awww KM good luck hope you find it! i have to keep stopping myself from using it lol otherwise i will be obsessed lol i love that sound! its just the best little sound ever.

trying not to do it till the weekend, when the kids are here again,

arghhhhh so not in a work moodddddddddd

 

[Koolmami]

I wish I had money to buy a doppler! I can't really afford it at the moment and by the time I can, the baby will probably be here! lol

Good luck girls on your scans, as I said, I don't know when mine is yet! I hope there is a letter today or I'll go mad! Good thing is that my partner told all his colleagues already and although he is on probation still in his new job, they all receivedc the news positively and his boss told him that he can be with me on the day of the scan. Yay!
