Yep loads of boobage to lose yet, I can't see that happening for a while though!

I'm off to bed now, am on nights tonight so I need a bit of sleep before I go off to work.

Catch you all soon.

Away again this weekend!!!

jbells · 14/10/2010 12:14

oh so youve got room to drop a couple of cup sizes then lol im a DD and i was happiest when the dropped to a C friends think im mad but i always wanted smaller boobs biggest ive bin was an E im only 5ft 2 tho so it felt too big for my body

100years · 14/10/2010 12:09

Hope the sickness goes off soon for you :(

I don't mind them shrinking at the moment tbh, they were a G cup when I bought the bra, so I reckon an F now!

jbells · 14/10/2010 12:03

my boobs havnt grown this time around last time there was a noticeable difference, i havnt really been eating very much as i feel sick all the time and have no appetite but ive still managed to put a pound on i wasnt very happy about that told my mum and she said well u r pregnant! hate the early bit where u just start looking fat,

he is prob right the bra will prob fit u again once your pregnant lol

100years · 14/10/2010 11:56

Well after his "you can count in days now not months" comment the other day I doubt he will, it was that night that I started the every other day tablet plan, and he was aware of it.

The other day I commented that my boobs have shrunk and my bra was too big now and showed him, he replied with "more room for milk" LOL

I think it's on his mind too

jbells · 14/10/2010 11:44

fingers crossed he wont :)

100years · 14/10/2010 11:32

It's for migraines. the Dr said to stop them before trying, I have been on them for a number of years now and am not sure they work any more, but they are in my system and I don't want to just stop taking them one day. So it's every other day till my period and then after that I will stop them - so long as OH doesn't make me wait another month!

jbells · 14/10/2010 11:09

thanks 100 years- i know wasnt the best news to come back to, cop out that they wudnt tell me to my face, altho i am much more enjoying being at home rather than that horrible office, so there is a silver lining, i still havnt managed to catch up on all of thread properly wot preventer drugs do u have to take, sorry your feeling crappy

100years · 14/10/2010 09:32

Fluffy yeah I checked all my meeds with the Dr and apparently the drugs I take as a preventer are 'not a nice drug at the best of times' so not really advisable in pregnancy. I thought the first trimester was worse for a lot of things as that is when the foetus does it's developing. Anyway I'm on my second missed tablet now and a night shift tonight so we shall see.

Jbells, lovely to see you again. Yay for your scan date :o Really bad about your work though :(

Good luck at the interview JS

I am feeling icky today, sore throat a bit of a cough and ear ache. I sound very croaky and I'm not sure that's really a good thing! Supposed to be biking today, might just go on it for a little bit to the chemist (for a script) and back and nothing more than that.

jbells · 14/10/2010 08:34

AC- thanks very much any advice u cud give me on where i stand would be great, so far ive figured they have to pay me up to when my contract was supose to end plus any holidays owed is this right? i knew they were horrible dheads but didnt think they wud stoop this low, most companies tread on eggshells when u tell them your pregnant

AmandaCooper · 13/10/2010 18:04

JBells I am an employment solicitor, let me know if I can help. If you don't mind the fact that I am insane that is!

bebejones · 13/10/2010 17:18

JS - Fingers crossed for you! Just hope you can get away from the BFH!

I'd love to train to be a teacher, but I don't want to do it until I've had my family. Have sussed out courses etc, but will probably have changed by the time I get round to it! Hmm

WW - The lady who does our toddler group & the playgroup is doing the NVQ. She works part time there whilst she is training & the rest of the time volunteers at the primary school to get experience. Maybe this is an option?

Hi WhyWait - I really want to do the Early Years qualification but at the moment we can't afford for me to have a year unpaid.... Think I may look into it between DC1 and (hopefully) DC2 - now that's advanced planning!!!

JS - I get v :( about the wasted egg(s) wish you just collect them up & put them back in!!
Re potty training, I have no idea either, you just sort of learn as you go, there is no right or wrong coz every child is different. I was potty trained by 18 months apparently Hmm But there is alot to be said for leaving it later I think. I keep thinking DD is ready, & she shows all the 'signs', she just doesn't want to do it! DD is way more willful & independant than I was. If she doesn't want to do something there is no way she is going to do it without a fight! I thought weaning was tough, this is a whole new level of parenting!

Last night DH asked her if she needed a wee, she replied 'No daddy, I need cake!' :o That's my girl!! :o

JBells - Glad you have a scan date through. 29th will come round in no time at all, we're almost halfway through October as it is!

jbells · 13/10/2010 11:54

thanks guys

Bebe- i know i was totally shocked, ive been feeling a bit crappy lately hardly want to eat cos just feel nauseus all the time, sorry that potty training didnt go well, my mum keeps telling me that i shud start potty training DD but i know theres no point yet, shes only 18 months and she is not talking which is a concern for me mentioned it at drs and they sed, theres a very broad range for when they start to talk so im concentrating on that for now, got my scan date thru for the 29th of oct think ill be about 12 weeks by then

JS- i will speak to my lawyer doesnt seem like a workplace can just act like that, oh and i have no idea how to potty train either and i have a DD lol i think you just pick these things up as u go along, and try to get tips of people who have already done it

JustShaggingForNow · 13/10/2010 11:42

jbells You should definitely speak to your lawyer - Think you may have some kind of case there having told them you are PG.

bebe I OV'd yesterday (not using TCOYF but had the stabbing pains and got a positive OPK so no need to do all the charting!!) and so was feeling a bit :( about the wasted egg..... Sounds like the potty training is fun.... Makes me realise how clueless I am on all things to do with bringing up children as I would have no idea how to do that!!

bebejones · 13/10/2010 11:38

Shock Jbells They can't do that surely?! Welcome back on board! How are you feeling (apart from the crappy work thing) hope you are ok?

Given up potty training, need DD to be more cooperative! Hmm Will try again in a few months! Just need to make sure it's done by the time #2 arrives...although she could be in her teens by then if DH has any say!! Wink

Massively broody, but coming up to mid cycle (I think) & that always has an impact. Got a friends LOs 1st Birthday on Fri/Sat just can't believe it, time goes so fast!

jbells · 13/10/2010 11:22

Thanks JS, i had also told them i was pregnant the week before i went on holiday, i have my signed contract at home so i will see what they send me in my next wages, but think i will be speaking to my solicitor about it surely they cant just end someones contract early without even speaking to them or warning them

JustShaggingForNow · 13/10/2010 11:01

jbells - very irritating indeed - I think you may have a case there.......

welcome back to the madhouse :)
