TTC and Beyond!

So glad you got some meds Ashlee!They really do help a LOT. Seems like when I take one, I'm good for several days. It's strange, but i'm not questioning it.

Ladies - Starting to get worried. I am NOT drinking enough water and i'm scared. Water or any liquid makes me insanely nauseous. Sometimes just sipping water makes me gag. I know that hydration is SO important but i'm getting by most days with only 3 glasses of water. I don't know what else to do. I've tried, hot water, cold water, tea, flavored water, sparkling water, sipping water, chugging water. It all has the same effect.
 
Britt, I would try soup (like a really mild miso), or broth. Super bland, but it will get some liquids into you. If it gets worse, call your doc, they may want to give you an IV if you're really dehydrated.

Thanks amanda.. for lunch i've been having a very mild soup.. it's like ramen but gluten free. only concern is that it's got a good bit of sodium..I don't feel super dehydrated but my appointment isn't for another 20 days, so i'm not sure at which point I should call them. I never would have thought I'd not be able to drink water. :shrug:

I would call, just to be safe. No harm. They may have some more ideas, too. weird, but have you tried drinking through a straw? It may help..
 
Britt, try fruit Popsicles, that might be a little easier way to try and stay hydrated.

Also, like amanda said, try drinking with a straw. That's what i've been doing. Lemon water with a straw every day
 
Ash I can't believe that you're already 10 weeks! I think its time for another bump pic :)
 
I feel like I've done too much today. I'm exhausted and my back hurts. It's not even been a very busy day but I was looking after my friends 14 month old and the little monkey wouldn't sleep so I haven't been able to nap! Early bed for me I think!

I may only be just over 4 weeks pregnant but I have some serious bloat going on, my clothes are getting tight already and I popped the breast button off two uniforms at work! I wonder how long I can hide it this time?

I hope everyone is doing ok.

Happy V Day Amanda!
 
bb-Yay for the positive digi!!!! Congrats :) My pants got tight really quickly too. The rubber band around the button thing only worked for about a week. I have two in there though...maybe you do too! lol

Britt-I agree with the popcicles or even ice...can you suck on ice or chew it? That would help if you can handle it. Otherwise lets hope it passes soon...just don't get so dehydrated that you have to go to the doc for fluids. Have you talked to your doc about it?
 
I doubt it, Cassidy is the one with twins with those bright lines! :lol:

I have a lot of maternity stuff in the loft from when I was pregnant with Tristan. I also have a uniform available at work in the next size up from before I lost weight!

I guess what they say about showing quicker with on your second is true!
 
I have a bellaband around somewhere, and will gladly send it to someone if they want it. Size small, brown with lace. Never worn!

Also a pair of ingrid and isabel black linen maternity pants, size small or medium. Worn once around the house.

I feel like I'm jynxing myself by hanging onto them :)

btw, they're having a killer sale right now. If I was preggo I would for sure be getting the white ruched 3/4 shirt!

I have that problem normally..my torso is so long that its always really hard to find tank tops that don't look like stupid crop tops, haha. Target has amazing tanks that are long and cheap. https://www.target.com/s?searchTerm...ategories&lnk=snav_sbox_mossimo+long+and+lean
 
Can you get things from New Look? They do a tall section which is great for a bump! Their maternity section is really good too.
 
Ashlee- Ik what you mean about no touching the belly.. even before I had a bump I wanted NO pressure and hubby couldn't press it.. I would always yell at him about it, trying to lay on top of me or whatever haha. It's like an INSTANT protective mama instinct.. so cool. And I've got to try the hair tie trick bc I HAAAATE my bellaband.. stupid thing just looks like I have a super long tank top pulled over my butt since you have to wear it down so low.. And then your pants fall down all day.. Haha but I'll let you be the judge, ik plentyyyy of mamas who love em!

Sonia- HOW ARE YOU??? I see you! ;) haha

And IIIIII get to seeee my beannnnn in the morninnnnn.... nanananabooboo... haha jk but I'm so excited. 8 a.m. I hope they give me more pictures :)

P.s. I LOVE NEW LOOK BB!!!! I bought a whole bulk load of maternity clothes a month ago (it's just like H&M but EXCELLENT maternity selection- super cute!!) and it was FREE shipping from the UK! I got so much stuff, the cutest silky Christmas dress and a pack of 3 stretchy dresses, all so cheap.. even have my boots on from there right now.. ttly a New Look advocate now lol.
 
5weeks vs 10weeks not much different really
