NurseS I hope your dP came home again. How horrid for you having to put up with behaviour like that. Even if you weren't pg that's not right!

Moufflon terribly sorry to do that to you. They are yummy though Grin. I really want bacon and egg pie, but have to wait until my meat aversion stops.

I'm still tucked up in bed as lying down is the only way for me not to feel sick. Oh the hardship of it!

knackered76 · 14/11/2010 10:51

8RD - you have to love children! Luckily mine haven't bestowed that pleasure on me yet! Hope your day gets better :)

Petitech I sort of have but not much! Figure I'll worry about it properly later. I spent the last pregnancy being determined not to get too big (still carrying a far amount of extra weight from the other 2) and then that one ended so decided not to worry about this time! I do have this link however so when the time come I can keep some sort of track!

www.babycenter.com/pregnancy-weight-gain-estimator

Would recommend only using this if you are the sort of person who doesn't obsess over weight. If not then step away from the link . . it will only add to paranoia!

Really must go and do something now that doesn't involve the computer or tv :)

rubberduckie you poor thing! And you ds too. hope he gets better soon.

waves hello to Leroy

Sorry typing left handed, not ignoring anyone.

sasamaxx · 14/11/2010 11:04

LeroyGibbs - welcome, congrats and good luck at the scan on Tue.

Knackered - I just hate mornings. You're right though - it is FAR worse on weekdays with time constraints. I have terrible trouble getting breakfasts eaten and clothes on to get out of the door by quarter to nine. I always end up really stressed.
DS usually has a swimming lesson on Sun morning too but he has a snotty nose today so he didn't go. Sounds like you're having a nice rest this morning - make the most of it - don't start doing any housework - just get x factor on - Matt and Rebecca were good although it wasn't the best show for any of them I don't think.

OMG rubberduckies - what a time you're having. At least this might be this winter's D&V bug and you might get it out of the way now and have a D&V free winter. That said, I'm sure we all got 2 different ones last year.

So how much weight have you put on then petitech? I will weigh myself later on the wii but I'm guessing maybe 10 lbs or so for me although it could be more...

mrsbigw · 14/11/2010 11:09

Leroy Hello & congratulations, we do have our good news days too I promise! Welcome to the thread.

8rd I cannot imagine anything worse I think you actually deserve some sort of medal or compensation for what you have been through this morning, hope your poor DS feels better soon bless him.

Petitech I haven't been near the scales but I reckon I have put on over half a stone. I know that a lot of that is extra blood, boobs etc but I am being a bit stressy about the size of my uterus, it seems so high. I am usually a bit of a gym bunny & have a flat stomach so it is a shock to have a baby bump there, it's definately not fat as the MW felt it & it is high for my dates- apparantly usually stays under pubic bone til 12wks & mine was half way to belly button by 11. My uterus has always gone down very fast after previous babies so it's not because of poor tone either. Whatever is going on I think I look pg now if I wear slim fitting clothes.

Sorry for thread hijack but I must of needed to vent about that, I have to admit I have been googling about it too Blush & it is so nice to be able to come on hear where everyone else has pregnancy on the brain too.

Sasamax hope your morning is getting better & that everyone is having a restful Sunday.

sasamaxx · 14/11/2010 11:14

mrsbigw I really feel like that too - I'm honestly thinking that it might be twins now Shock
I don't normally have a flat tummy but it is honestly ridiculously large now AND I swore I felt 'quickenings' the other day. Then I spoke to my midwife friend who said it couldn't have been that unless it was twins as the uterus rises much earlier with twins Shock

I keep telling myself it's just chips and pizza - I am down to 2 pairs of trousers that fit!!!

8rubberduckies · 14/11/2010 11:17

Grin Grin Mrsbigw at the thought of a medal, just an afternoon off and a massive gin and tonic would do Smile. DS seems to be a bit better now, thanks everyone x

mrsbigw · 14/11/2010 11:21

Sorry if this sounds wrong but I am so glad it isn't just me Sasamaxx! Grin
When is your scan? I have 10 days to wait & I don't think 10 days has ever felt so long. I am questioning my dates but then wondering why I haven't felt any movements as I would have by now if I am a month further on (16+3 as opposed to 11+3). Lol about pizza & chips; perhaps we're storing food directly onto uterus? Any other suggestions welcome!

mrsbigw · 14/11/2010 11:23

X posts 8rd glad you have weathered the worst of the storm!

My scan is on the 30th mrsbigw so 16 DAYS AWAY!! So so far away it is unbearable. I am 11+1 today.

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 14/11/2010 11:35

Sasa some what jealous of your scan date. Mines the third of Dec. That's next month still!!!

Still in bed, but battery about to die, so may have to shower and move to the couch now SadGrin

Clarkiee · 14/11/2010 12:23

Morning everyone Grin well it's just gone afternoon but I'm not dressed yet.

Went to Manchester for my friends birthday last night. Had the most amazing non-alcholic cocktail at Cloud 23 (Skyscraper Hilton hotel) it was pricey but tasted like strawberry cheesecake!!!! Highly recommended to anyone in the Manc area.

I've been a bit rubbish with the healthy eating- feeling guilty and I'm going to try harder next week. Not the best start to today- my DH bought me a Raisin pastry thing for breakfast Confused

Anyone else finding the vivid dreams strange. Normaly I have great dreams but last night had two bad dreams about my observations that are coming up on Monday (Local Authority inspection in my school)- I had to convince myself that they hadn't actually happend yet!

Clarkiee · 14/11/2010 12:29

sasamaxx I'm 11+1 today but my scan is on Thursday- annoying that you have to wait till your 13th week Shock

petitech · 14/11/2010 12:32

I think I've put on about 8-9lbs but I'm only 5ft 1 so starting to feel like a weeble :) Have been eating a lot of chips though and doing minimal activity!

8rubberduckies · 14/11/2010 12:35

I don't own any scales Grin, but know I've put on a few pounds cos a lot of my clothes are tight already. I just keep reminding myself it all fell off when I was breastfeeding, although I was left with a stomach, bum and thighs the consistency of marshmallow Hmm.

NurseSunshine · 14/11/2010 12:51

Sorry to everyone who's feeling poorly. At least it's the weekend so you can have a lie in.

He came back about half an hour ago, started to collect up his stuff and then left! So now I am pregnant, have no idea where I'm going to live as I have to be out of my flat in two weeks, and have no money and no food as I was relying on him until this friday. If it was a normal week I'd just have to get by but I start a new placement tomorrow and it's on the other side of town. I could walk back I suppose but I couldn't walk there in the morning as it would take about 3 hours, maybe more and I need to be there for 7am. And I don't know the way. I don't even have enough for one bus journey. So I've just rung my mum in tears and she is going to drive the 1.75hours to mine to give me some money :( I feel so weak and helpless and pathetic. What a horrible fucking mess.

catherineps · 14/11/2010 12:58

Poor you nurse. I'm glad your mum is looking after you. He actually left because you asked him to eat with his mouth closed?? That is the most pathetic thing I've ever heard! Horrible situation for you to be left in but I expect you can do without having 2 children to look after!! Hope you don't mind me saying that.

NurseSunshine · 14/11/2010 13:23

That's exactly what I thought catherineps. Oh yeah apparently I hate him because I told him not to bother geting another back door key cut as the letting agent was going to so there's no point him paying for it Hmm Confused WTF?

mrsbigw · 14/11/2010 13:26

sorry you are having such a hard time NurseSun. Even if you two cant get along at the moment you are the mother of his child & deserve support. Maybe he will agree to put the argument to one side while you go about business as usual for now re housing, lifts to work etc. IMHO it is easier than the alternative, I hope your DP has a change of heart. Hope things work out for you in time for your placement tomorrow.

Clarkie Clouds bar has amazing views doesn't it, although I am too much of a wimp to sit near the window! I used to love the watermelon martini's from there, they are huge mmmmmm.

Let's hope that time passes quickly until our scans sasamax until then I will be preoccupied with EDD's & whether I have too much aminiotic fluid etc.

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 14/11/2010 13:34

Oh Nurse what an utter jerk! He obviously has some pretty major issues going on in his head. Yay for your Mum coming down and helping you out. We're all here for you too xx.

Minione · 14/11/2010 14:08

Oh Nurse I'm so sorry, your partner is acting like an idiot, I'm glad that you have your mum to support you and we're all here for you too. Whereabouts are you?

Mrsbigw - Aah, thanks, but I'm in Leicestershire so a bit of a trek! Wink

My scan has changed from the 24th to the 30th as the consultant isn't available for the earlier one. I'll be 11 and a half weeks then, not really an early scan like I was told I could have. I will be getting the nuchal scan at the same time and it will be very deatiled so I suppose I shouldn't complain too much I just feel like its ages away.

knackered76 · 14/11/2010 14:12

Nurse :( :( :( and also very, very Angry Angryon your behalf. Hopefully your mum can give you some good advice and support. Sounds like dp is clearly having issues. Fingers crossed he sorts them and realises what a d**k he's been and come begging. I know it's not much support from over the internet and not very practical for you but I am thinking of you.

You could always post his picture and details and we could form a group to hunt him down . . . and then make him pay Grin!(yes I know that's not going to happen, but it is a nice idea of a bunch of random pregnant women stalking him!)

petitech · 14/11/2010 14:41

Are many people having the nuchal scan?

Clarkiee · 14/11/2010 14:42

I hope you managed to get things sorted in time for tomorrow nurse. Glad your mum is coming over to support you xx
