Ceedee, they dont routinely give UK women medication unless youre really bad, unable to keep anything down and such like. I think part of the problem is that our family doctors are general doctors rather than specialists, and they just don't like prescribing medication to pregnant women, even though it's routinely given to women in other countries!
I've had a little look at antenatal classes, and I think I'm going to do the NCT classes as I don't really know anyone where we live so it'd be good to meet people. They are expensive, though. About £200.
Dinah I'm so sorry you're so I'll - would it be worth calling your GP? One thing that helped me last week when I was really sick, was to eat sweets, Skittles were the best ones, and were the only thing that didn't make me retch or vomit. Can you get some rehydration salts? They might help too if you can sip them xxx
Cramps - I had them until about 7 weeks and I also felt like AF was going to arrive any second!
I've decided that going to work makes me ill. I feel mostly ok on days I don't have to work
