The addictable wagoners have abandoned the waterlogged field back to the safety of the Wagon (with Spa facilities). Thread for those waiting to TTC, those TTC now and other graduates alike!!

haha- my BUMP is a talking point!!! thanks Ses & GS- at least i can tell everyone when they see the bump though... was bursting inside to tell everyone!! haha!!

Ses- with sickness i drank a capful of ginger drink first thing and it would subside the sickness for a few hours, then after lunch it would tail off a bit (in the first couple of weeks- about 4-6 for me)

I feel awful if i come and moan about my sickness as i'm on meds for it!! but i'm still gagging a lot GS, its not too bad, some days i'm sick first thing and then just gag the rest of the day, but i feel almost normal, just dreading coming off the meds just in case its helping more than i imagine it is!!

And Hello Moosma!! not seen you on here in a while!! i'm no good with remembering what people have been up to since, sure someone will fill you in!!

And hello BB- you were around in the first few weeks that i started coming on here!! Glad to hear your well!!

Blimey you lot, this thread's old, what happened to filling one a week? You slackers!!

Just popping on to catch up while DD1's at preschool and DD2's eating biscuits Hello BB I'm waiting for January too so you're not alone! I haven't been on much for aaaaaaaaages so I'm out of the loop too.

What's new everybody? The last thing I heard Diege was hoping to be back on the wagon soon, what's happened since then?

Ses I think you can get ginger tablets, might be easier than forcing food/drink that you don't like.

Tink, you have the wrong idea about this nursery thing, whilst DD is being looked after you should be resting and relaxing and MNing not rushing around doing boring food shops!

morning

hi bb great to have you back

hi ses sorry for sickness

hi nat poor you sounds very painful you take care

i am off to drop dd @ nursery in a min then i am doing food shop

OWWWWWWWWWWWWWW away!

Did have the mini cheddars besde my bed this morning so had those early which may have helped a little. I had thought about the sea sickness bands but they'd be a little obvious at work so don't know whether they'd help if I wore them whilst asleep.... Ginger has neer been a fave of mine but I may get to the stage where I'll try anything!

Right really must go! Catch you later and hello to everyone else!

Morning Ses Have you tried any of the old fashioned ways to stop the sickness? Ginger, eating before you get out of bed, sea sickness bands, etc. etc.?

Next MW appointment is on the 29th I think, it's not too far off from the last one because she was worried about the contractions and wants to keep an eye on me with me refusing the consultants... TBH there is nothing they can do if I went. She told me the labour ward is pretty much an open door to me, so if the contractions get scarily close together/strong then to go in, but there really isn't anything they can do. If the worst happened and it led to labour (very very VERY unlikely - well, no more likely than anyone else going into pre-term labour) I labour that quickly at full term, that it would all be over before we got to the hospital at 24/25 weeks anyway.

Can I have one more OWWWWWWWWW in advance please? Just a little one.... I have to move in a second and get DS1's lunch sorted.

Morning NJ!
That sounds awful Poor you. When's your next MW appointment scheduled for? Might be worth a phonecall. Wish I could say something more useful but if a moan on here helps then keep at it!

Woke up feeling sick again this morning. I'm not really complaining though as I'd be worried if it suddenly stopped at this stage. Have brushed my teeth and done some retching and now had 3 mini cheddar biscuits. Don't feel like I'm going to puke this minute but don't feel great. Have still told no one except DH and BF that I'm pg and don't really want to until a successful scan but I'm really not operating at 100% and am worried people will either guess or think I'm being lazy!

Right, I must get up and go to work! Yet another day of hoping we'll exchange...

Good morning

Tink weekend sounds great! Have fun

BB!!!!! Hello stranger! I will try and email you later for a catch up (am notoriously bad for not getting round to emailing and stuff though so don't hold it against me!) Job sounds great Are we to have the founder of the wagon back on it?

Ses, meetings and MS don't mix well hey? Hope it doesn't get much worse before it get's better.

Gruff agree with Ses, lots say it tails off at around 10 weeks. Also, I think we get used to it, so it doesn't seem as big a thing after a while, and I think we get better at knowing what will start us off and avoid like the plague the things we can.

I am on a moan I'm afraid, excuse me while I shout I AM HURTING Contractions were like being hit by a train every 10 mins last night, and have woken up with one hip so completely out of line with the other one I can barely walk, my fanjo feels like it is about to pack it's bags and sod off for two weeks to the canaries with out me because it seems to have a hand or a foot about to break free out of it, and just a plain old OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW FUCKITY OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

God that feels better....

yeah i have a scan (12 wks) on 7th Oct. 3 weeks today ( not that im counting down or anything! )

i have a prob with bloatedness so I have huge bump after eating which makes me look about 6 months gone, but its not all the time thank goodness!im trying to keep it quiet but thats not helping. i have def got a little something there though. with this being my first im thinking it wont be appearing properly (to Glasks standards) for a while!

thanks for info re nausea. it is such a worry but just keep telling myself what will be will be.

I told my DH of my worries and he reminded me of how much I was gagging as I walked around Tescos last night!!

Hi Gruff! This ttc and pg stuff is just non stop worry isn't it??! I know a lot of people who've said that their nausea has tailed off by week 10 so I wouldn't worry if I were you.
If all's going well, I'm 6 weeks today and scan in 2 weeks. Do you have another scan booked?
Have you got a bump starting?

sorry ses hi there to u!

i didnt refresh after catching up!!

good to hear you are feeling better.

my nausea is so much better than it was - I have to admit i am fretting a little. I am 9 weeks 2 days. used to be all day, now tends to be when im hungry, thats it!

hi BB

i remember u!

nice to see u back here! good news about job and ttc! are you back for good?

Hi BB! Sorry don't think we ever crossed paths on this thread but I have heard speak of you (of your greatness of course!)
There are a few people waiting to ttc until after Christmas on the thread so feel free to come back and join us!

Btw, new job really helps. I changed jobs about 2 months ago to one that is much more suited to me and I'm loving it and not stressing out so much.

Anyone else about this evening?
Sickness went by about 3pm. Sat through my meeting this morning (when I finally got there with minutes to spare!)concentrating on not retching in front of everyone! Still a bit off my food and the only things I feel like eating are really not v nutritious Just eaten a load of crap this evening.

tink - have you had any feedback on viewing? We've still not exchanged and getting v frustrated!

Blardy typical i come on and noones on the beloved wagon well....
ive settled into my new job i really love it and DP and i will be trying again in january

would be glad to hear from anyone who remembers me as BB! [email protected] hope you are all well

haha- a doughtnut sounds fun!!

a bus has broken down outside my house so i'm being nosey!!

...and a jammy doughnut

WTF is a doughtnut?

I had a ham salad roll

... and a galaxy ripple

... and a few pringles

... and a jammy doughtnut

... and, no nothing else

hi NJ- glad you got sorted!! was collecting DS from nursery, am now eating a cheese and tomato butty and 2 boiled eggs (i'm craving pickled eggs but haven't got any so plain old boiled will have to do for now!!)

i'm having a crisis with DC's xmas presents... i currently have their seesaw in the shed (which is now full to the brim) i have their playhouse in the dining room covered with a sheet (obviously flat-packed) and also have their play-gym in the hallway and dining room, hoping i can put the slide bit under the bed and the massive box of the metal bars etc for the frame can hide in the corner of the dining room!! good job they are both too young to fully understand what a big box is for!!!

T'is OK, don't panick (OK, I know you weren't but I was!!) t'is in the garage!

...Speaking of hiding the pressies, the order from Toys R Us has just come (the bargain Thomas ride on track thingy, and some other things) the other things are in a big box, but I can take them up stairs and hide them easily enough, but I can barely even lift the Thomas thing, where the hell am I going to put it?

Do you think it will be OK in the garage till the kids are in bed and DH can take it up stairs for me? Garage is damp and dirty, but it's in a box with black wrapping around it, it will be OK till tonight won't it?

Am panicking slightly here, can you tell?! LOL

Morning

Ses, won't say sorry you're feeling badly, because it is deffo a good sign, and it is deffo worth it!

Cal, I hope DS starts on the road to recovery soon, it is so shitty for them, at least when we get a cold we know it will go eventualy they have no idea.

Glask, with DS2 I was like you (well your bump!) and it just kept getting bigger and bigger, this time I started off like it again, but have barely grown since 12/13 weeks, to the point where I think I am probably on the small side now. I am feeling very full in my tummy now though so I guess the only way to go is out now!

Have been into town, got a load of small stocking filler type stuff for the boys, I am nearly there now, have got to sit and sort it all out, decide what of DS2's stuff is for his bday and what's for his xmas pressies, and then it is just sorting out the guinea pigs and hutch thingymebob... how the hell am I going to hide that/them????

thanks cal- i'm trying to take the comments with good grace while i can be proud and happy its just a little bump now... seeing as i know in 20wks i'll be sick of hearing i look ready to pop!! haha!!

glad your getting into ebay- i love it... i'm considering buying a mamas and papas cot off there for the bump... its only down the road, and has been re-listed twice because the winning bidder let her down... i think its a sign!! haha!!
