*~*~* The Decemberists! *~*~*

[Pusscat]

I'm trying hard to stay awake too! You must feel very strange waking up now! I've gone through tired spells today. The worst one being at 11 this morning when I fell asleep while DD was playing on our bed!

That does sound sparse! I'm wondering if I'll get an appointment with a doctor after the difficult birth I had last time. They think my contractions weren't strong enough so I ended up needing ventouse delivery. I guess that's something I'll bring up at my booking on.

 

[smawfl]

Yes definitely raise any concerns you have and issues with first delivery. My friend is due in a week and in stark comparison to mine,she had a shocking experience but our midwife is really good this time round and put her forward for the birth listening service and she has found it to be really good with putting her mind at ease about this delivery. In fact it sounds like they'll be treating her like royalty when she goes in!

Definitely worth mentioning it.

 

[Pusscat]

I had a birth reflections lady come a talk to me after I had DD and she's the one that said I should be refered to the hospital after my booking in appointment. I definitely want to do everything possible to ensure my birth experience is nothing like the first one!

 

[smawfl]

Ah that's good then,sounds like there's a process on place for you to talk about it then.

How's the testing and temping? Are you still doing it?

 

[Pusscat]

Yes, I'm still doing both Feel like I'm coming to the end of testing though as the last one was as dark as the control so I'm thinking it might be time to stop! My temp dipped slightly which has worried me slightly so think I might do both tomorrow I know the dip isn't really that significant compared to the rest of the chart but I can't help but worry! Maybe another sign I should stop temping as well?!

 

[smawfl]

Yes probably time to put the tests away and relax I wouldn't worry about the temp. How have your symptoms been today? Anymore sick feelings?

 

[Pusscat]

I'll see how I feel in the morning Yes, I've felt pretty horrendous before meal times today but fine once I've got some fuel inside me.

 

[Pusscat]

My temp went up to its highest ever reading today so I think that's a good place to leave it. And I didn't test today. So I'm saying that's the end of testing and temping!

 

[smawfl]

Great news on the temp! Yes I agree,definitely a good time to stop. Now you can enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!

 

[smawfl]

How are you feeling pusscat?

 

[Pusscat]

I've felt nauseous all day and the lady I work with asked if I was ok first thing this morning Haven't told anyone at work yet but wondering if I should. Smells have made it worse. There's a club on before school starts and they have breakfast there and the smell really didn't help things first thing this morning getting into school!! Also gone off tea and can only really drink water at the moment!

How are you? How's the bump coming among?!

 

[smawfl]

Wow pretty heavy on the nausea! How were you with your first pregnancy?

Im good thanks, we have a couple of weeks off so enjoying some chilled time before going away next week.

Bump feels huge already!

 

[Pusscat]

Ah that's nice. Saw you went to thomas land. We were considering that for dd's birthday but have decided on gullivers kingdom instead.

I was the same with the first pregnancy. Felt sick but I was never actually physically sick. Hopefully it just stays at this level. Strong enough to be reassuring but not affecting my life/work too much.

 

[smawfl]

Not heard of Gullivers Kingdom! Dd k's obsessed with Thomas at the moment thanks to her cousin so she absolutely loved it! Plus we used clubcard vouchers so got I'm free'

 

[Pusscat]

Thomas land was going to be expensive without club card vouchers. Gullivers is in Matlock Bath and is aimed at toddlers so sounds perfect! A mini theme park!

Feeling sick tonight and doesn't help that dh thinks he has food poisoning and is also feeling sick! Makes me feel more sick! He can go in the spare room if he starts throwing up in the night. I'm so sympathetic aren't I?!

 

[Pusscat]

Ooh, you're an onion!!

 

[smawfl]

Er noo send him in there anyway lol,you're pregnant so you should have special treatment away from sick people lol

Perhaps he's having sympathy morning sickness?!

I know! Onion doesn't feel like it's very big!?

 

[smawfl]

We want to go to peppa pig world at some point...that is super expensive though and not on clubcard!

 

[Pusscat]

Peppa pig world is on our list too. Did you see the saccone jolys went there? Looked good! It's quite far from here so we'd have to stay over. DD can quote peppa pig, she loves it!

I can hear dh's stomach churning I think he'll be okay if he just goes to sleep, which is what he's attempting now.

Onions can really vary in size.. Let's say it's a large one!

 

[smawfl]

Yes I saw it! Made DH watch it too so he could see what it was like,looked great!

Can't believe our girls are turning 2 soon!!
