Oh wow this morning MS kicked in ugh I was trying to get a sip out of a cup of tea then when I come down the stairs I can smell every thing stale air becuase windows are closed, bin I just had some toast and beans and feel heaps better
Oh no, sorry your ms has hit Niamh! You make me laugh with your beans and toast - that's like your special ms cure, isn't it?
Lucky - yes men worry so much about money. DH came up with a money plan before I fell pregnant and I have done what he suggested so we can save so I think he feels more in control, but it will be tight at the end no matter what. I think its a man's curse to worry about money and I'm glad its not my huge worry - I do worry about money and look after it and do what I should and pay off debts etc, but it doesn't upset me the way it seems to upset men and I always figure we'll just cope no matter what. Give him time to come up with some sort of solution and back him up a bit on it if you can - or just let hiom complain so he gets it out.
Now I need another bacon toasted sandwich - I am really craving them!
Yes, I guess up til now me and my OH have both always been earning money and had some financial independence (even though we share costs), so it's the first time he has had to feel completely responsible for it all. I am like you - I just figure we will cope! But it's all fine really, I think you are right, he just needs to get the worry off his chest now and again.
I am worried I am going to start craving meat - I have been a vegetarian for 13 years!
Lucky - you asked what I do, I work for a large telecoms company, and I do a job that only I do for my department in managing the flow of work coming in, and that we have the right people, with the right skills, available at the right time. SOunds more impressive than it is - I just do lots of spreadsheets and conference calls!
the downside tho - my spare room = office = nursery - that'll be fun!
That sounds plenty impressive mush! And pretty cool you can do it from home. Does your work know you are pregnant? I am dreading telling my work.
Luckyd....The ms was getting ALOT better thanks, i still struggle to think of what to eat and have a hard time eating healthy foods but its getting better. My new thing seems to be headaches! I have the week off though so I'm tryin to get lots of rest. How are your symptoms coming along? I was almost 6wks till I started queasy, but you might not even suffer at all!
so good you are feeling better! but the headaches don't sound like much fun. That is good that you have the week off - try and relax as much as possible! I am going to Melbourne in a couple of weeks to see my friends new baby (that is due any second), so can't wait for that. Although I will probably be vomiting the entire time!
Symptoms wise, I am ok...just the gagging when brushing my teeth...and feel kinda rubbish in the mornings...but although I would love your prediction regarding me and morning sickness to come true, I also know that I have the weakest stomach in the world and am positive that I am going to be as sick as a dog in a week or two!
Anyway hi!! :wave: thank you for the link, hope you don't mind me here! So hard to find anywhere to fit in.
Hope you are all well and not sicky!
Hi Whitbit! Welcome - still so happy for you, you have been one patient TTCer! How are you feeling?
I am feeling very down today - DH moaned at me for being grumpy with DD yesterday - I have been losing my temper a bit with her, particularly when he is home as I just need a break and a sleep. But not just that, I think the MS and the exhaustion and the end of the stomach bug and just general hormones are getting to me and the worry about going low (along with going low which is an immediate depressant) - I'm just worried its the lack of anti depressants as I stopped them 3 weeks back, but I think I will get some rest, eat good food and get out in the sun today and see if that makes it better before taking anymore anti depressants.
Oh, you really are having a tough time of it Tanikit..seems unfair that you had such a bad stomach bug on top of everything else! Your plan about resting, eating good food and getting some sun sounds great - really hope it eases things for you a little
We just told my brother that I am pregnant! He is staying with us, and I was trying to keep in a secret until the weekend, but then I just found out he will be away so won't see him face to face for a week or so. So we told him - it was so much fun, feels great to say it out loud!
I am so tired and got to go to bed...oooh, but also wanted to say I spoke to a midwife today and she was super nice, I find out tomorrow who my actual midwife from that team will be. And they were super excited about the fact that I want a home birth - hurrah!
Hope you are all doing well xxx
must be my hormones 
Its much better now though. You know what, if it does hit you, you will find a way to cope! 
hopefully you feel very welcome 
delighted you got to tell your brother that is so great
