hello lovelies...sorry been out for a couple of days and missing all the fun!
the pityriasis (or however it's spelled
)...i had that a couple of summers ago, and i wasn't pg (obviously). i don't remember how it started...if i had one big spot first or whatever...i may have. i get a mild eczema every once in a while, and i had just gotten over having strep throat a couple of months prior to having the rash. but anyway, just one day, i noticed these spots cropping up on my chest. i thought i was having a really bad break-out at first (acne), which would have been strange, but i didn't know what else it was. and i had it on my back, but then it kept spreading and went up my neck and down my stomach and my thighs and upper arms. i went to the doc for it, but he said there's literally nothing they can do for it. that it doesn't cause problems...you just have to wait for it to go away.
and it did go away after several weeks. it wasn't itchy though for me. just sort of embarrassing when it was in noticeable places.
hopes, if your rash is itchy, it might be that or might not.
i don't know. it's good you're not running a fever or anything like that with it. that would really worry me. but aside from that, it's not surprising that your midwife referred you to your pcp. if your issue is not specifically pg related, the midwife and ob (at least here in the states) will always refer you to pcp for any other kind of infection or anythg like that. i hope you can get in with your pcp first thing hunni to make sure
tink, phoebs, mc, coral and other ding dongs who weren't sleeping, i hope you get a nice rest tonight
poppy, the stomach bug is awful isn't it? especially when it goes through everybody. that's what we were dealing with last week, but we're all over it now, thank God. i hope you all get better soon sweetie
oh and happy birthday to korben luv
regal...we're here for you sweetie
miss ya around here hun.
lew, i'm so envious of your vaca in tenerife sweetie
but i also understand completely about your feelings about your sil (or was it sister??). it's so hard. i have 2 of my sil's pregnant now, and my baby sister is due in may as well.
i so enjoyed getting to see her on saturday for her shower, but it was just so emotionally draining as well b/c of how badly i want it to be me.
so we know how you feel sweetie and you can rant away as much as you need!
sleeping bubs,
so happy for you sweetie!!!
well i can't think of much else at the mo. dh is off taking a test for his teaching job. fxxxx he passes so he won't have to take it again. it's expensive.
afm, i think i'm only a day or 2 away from ov. i hope so anyway. opk pretty dark today but not yet positive. dh and i have our "post-coital" test tomorrow morning
please please pray that dh won't have a problem "finishing"
in the morning as that's going to be a problem otherwise. we haven't been dtd every other day like i wanted. today was the first time in 4 (or 5) days, but i'm ok with it. we're not really "relaxing" this cycle but i'm just trying not to stress about
(pfft...yeah, right
...well i did say TRYing...
) anyway, so it's spring break here, and it was overcast and rainy all day today. boo. well, we've got all week. plan to spend it at the beach and if our tax return money comes before the end of the week, then we're going to go to disney for a couple of day and renew our passes also. that will be wonderful...it's been a year since we've gone!
well love and
to all my lovely ding dongs!!! xoxox
Chuffed to bits for you hun x
just in case xx
