Oh god talk about healthy eating!!!! I'm sat eating a pizza !! Hahaha!

Cupcake92 · 28/07/2014 21:56

Welcome siarie!!! :)

Ah so Ducky u will see him more after 26 weeks then. I would think of see him often after 26 weeks then as the reason I was consultant let near the end of my pregnancy was because I went into early labour at 31/32 weeks and then DS was hardly moving in the last month. I had to have my early labour stopped. Don't want that happening again as I'd rather not have the steroid injections!!

LuluJakey1 · 28/07/2014 21:49

Ducky Tell him to get stuffed . He is such a so and so to you sometimes. What is the matter with him tonight?

21 I have managed to resist the lure of the shop. DH has been swimming but has had a can of stella since he got home. looks smug and self-righteous

iamdivergent · 28/07/2014 20:46

Sorry Bradders my phone hates and auto corrects everything!

Welcome! I reckon this is def the lucky thread Grin

Lulu I dont think you should be trying to lose weight when pregnant no, just healthy eating should be ok but I know its hard I have such a sweet tooth!

Ducky thats not nice, why does he have to be like that.

Welcome siarie hope its lucky for you and me both Smile

Ducky23 · 28/07/2014 19:53

Welcome siarie Smile

Good luck for those still trying Grin

Cupcake I'm consultant led, I think it depends on why you are cons led how much difference it makes.

I have seen him twice so far, should be seeing him next week and after 26 weeks il see him every 2 weeks.

Feeling a bit fed up, DH is just being generally spiteful and nasty Hmm he can be so horrible sometimes

LuluJakey1 · 28/07/2014 19:51

You are very welcome Siarie . Hope it is lucky for you.

21 I could do with losing a stone and a half but don't know if I should be trying while I am pregnant. Have only put on 4 lbs since I have been pregnant so it is not being pregnant, just pre- pregnancy gluttony! Blush
Am trying to be sensible. It is hard.

Siarie · 28/07/2014 19:40

Seeing as this is a lucky thread, can I join too?

Siarie, TTC #1, cycle 2 not sure when AF due as last cycle was irregular

21questions · 28/07/2014 19:37

Congratts missy this really is a lucky thread.

I have signs of ovulation today so think i might have started trying a bit early. Not using opk or anything like that at the moment but I think I can usually tell by cm.

I have been healthy eating and exercising prior to ttc managed to lose a stone would like to lose another honestly. Just cutting down not major dieting.

LuluJakey1 · 28/07/2014 19:32

cupcake I would kill for chocolate cake right now. We have nothing in the house that would be a treat. Will be reduced to lemon curd on a ryvita!

DH refusing to go to shop as is on a diet.

Cupcake92 · 28/07/2014 18:48

So it's not much different to midwife led care then. That's good lol thought I'd have to have a lot more appointments to go to! I hope I get an early scan or at least a growth scan nearer the end.

Lulu I've TRIED eating healthily! I've been snacking on grapes. But I have had chocolate cake! Oops!

LuluJakey1 · 28/07/2014 18:43

Is anyone else doing healthy eating?

I have tried really hard for the last 10 days. Lots of fruit, salads and have started eating chicken again after several years no meat. I feel much better but giving up Magnum ice creams has been hard! What I wouldn't do for a mint Magnum right now !

have conveniently forgotten giant cream tea I consumed last Friday- 4 sandwiches, huge slice of fresh cream and strawberry Victoria sponge and large cream scone with jam

LuluJakey1 · 28/07/2014 18:37

cupcake I am consultant led because of my thyroid problems. It hasn't involved much of anything except the clinic I go to is at the city hospital where he works. Have seen him twice and his Senior Reg, or whatever they are called, once when I had the bleeding. Oh I got another extra scan then as well.

I have monthly blood tests and had an early scan when I first saw him at about 8 weeks. Apart from that nothing special.

bradders85 · 28/07/2014 18:26

Congrats macmissy! Yes I am still waiting - cd 3 for me but feeling a renewed sense of optimism - hope it lasts!! :-)

Cupcake92 · 28/07/2014 18:25

Is anybody here consultant led? If so what does it involve? Like do I have to see the GP a lot?

Cupcake92 · 28/07/2014 17:04

Thanks everyone :)
And DH said he'd do the litter but I know he won't as he is at work most the time. Ill just do it and put rubber gloves on like that link said. And wash hands throughouly :)

I called doctors but the earliest I could get in is 13th August but that's my littles boys 1st bday and we are off to the zoo! And she said next available day was the Monday 18th n there's no point then as I have midwife on the Wednesday!
Terrible doctors I have!
If I feel too worried ill just make an urgent appt.

I'm deffo pg tho!! Decided to have cheese today, took one bite and suddenly felt so sick. Had to run off and puke! Now the site smell and thought of cheese is making me feel nauseous! :s so glad it's not chocolate this time tho!!

iamdivergent · 28/07/2014 16:56

Receptionist are terrible sometimes. When I found out I was pregnant I had awful stomach cramps and tried to get an emergency appointment she asked what for and heard her shouting over to her colleague 'shall I send het to the epu ?' !!!! It was awful . The dr that saw me though was lovely !

Ducky23 · 28/07/2014 16:17

A week tomorrow I mean!

Yayy you found us mac GrinGrinGrinGrin so lucky this thread is!

I had the cramping for te first few weeks. Apparently it's everything stretching, I know it's hard but try not to worry!

Steph my 20 week scan is on Tuesday Blush scary stuff!!!

Cupcake I have read you really shouldn't be in contact with cat litter when pg, can DH sort it?

macmissy · 28/07/2014 13:13

It does now :)

Bearsinmotion · 28/07/2014 13:04

Bah - why doesn't that link work?

macmissy · 28/07/2014 12:53

Call and try to get in honey, it won't hurt & even if you do have to wait for 2 weeks, it's better waiting for 2 than 4 or more!

Bearsinmotion · 28/07/2014 12:51

litter info [[http://www.nhs.uk/chq/Pages/2620.aspx]]

Just go ahead and make one anyway, you might not need an appointment with the GP, but if you want one you should make one - the receptionist at my GP's never asks what an appt is for anyway...
