Argh do come and go

Quick wave to everyone
MOAN ALERT! The shop opens tomorrow. I was there until 11pm last night. Ds2 is still ill. Dhs car broke down yesterday and we had to get taxis since then. I have no clean laundry and the house looks like its been burgled its so messy. I think I might be at the shop all night tonight. I cant even have the champagne on opening! Really tired and stressed.

Ill catch up tomorrow or Sunday, have a good weekend ladies!

Congrats on the prize!
Am feeling better this morn - just ate 4 Jaffa cakes to celebrate!! Never thought I'd fancy chocolate again...
Anyone on here being told to have amnio? My dr said as I am 36 we need to talk about it. Was never mentioned before with ds 1 as was 34 and apparently 35 and over is the magic number. Have a big scan in 2 weeks then he said we'll see after that. But am worried. I know the risks and the positives but all v horrible to contemplate.
Anyone of a similar age?

Just checking in quickly, sorry to grow xxx

Been throwing up constantly and sleeing, will catch up properly later x

Anyone else majorly teary today? Been reading the Remembrance poems on other threads and sat through the two minute silence with tears streaming down my face. I normally feel sad on this day, as with most people, remembering lost relatives and thinking about those who gave up their lives for us. But this year seems a lot worse, maybe it's because I have a child, and am preggers - hormones all over the place!

Darly Congrats on winning the radio prize. How cool.

Florin I had a sympton free day last week and it was great. Enjoy it while it lasts. I was stressing too initially but the scan put my mind to rest.

greengoose All the best for the shop opening. I am sure it will be a success.

I couldn't wake up today even at 09.00. Feel really tired and sick. Thank God for my 3 weeks holiday from work. I could not have coped otherwise.

Frozen me me me!!! I don't usually cry about Armistice Day but today I just couldn't stop crying at it all.

Ha ha Greengoose when I was burgled in August I blamed the mess on the burglers. I'm not entirely sure the police believed me quite rightly

Florin - in my last pg I had awful sickness then suddenly one day, nada. It lasted two days and I was sick with worry. Then suddently the nausea all came back and set in for another 10 weeks. I was kicking myself for not just enjoying the two sickness free days when I had them.

Movmama I too shall have the nuchal test but it is standard here anyway but they only do nuchal scan not 3xbloods. It was enough to set my mind at rest last time as we had a 1:2500 chance which I thought was fab but then everyone started giving their results as 1 in 40 million etc and I was [shocked] and started to panic about my results so this time please ladies if you are going to post your nuchal results can I PLEASE ask you to give advance warning as I don't want to read them

Hi girls.
Am moving tomorrow, big day has finally arrived, prob won't have internet for a while so will miss all your news, -- hope everyone keeps well.

readerholic am also 36. Last pregnancy I was 33 so may have same conversation with medic profs too. I think that it's just hit me. I'm on the +35 side of pregnancy...eeeeek.

Daryl - Congrats on prize! Good timing eh x

miniangel -- am heading to boots this afternoon if i manage a few more boxes. I soooo hope they help.

Goose -- Lots of luck, u seem to be coping v.well!

Hello to SSC, Kayzr, Sarah, everyone that I didn't mention, only because my memory is soooo bad.

Wishing u all good weekend. No news of Starlight yet?

Afternoon ladies, well the nausea finally hit me yesterday and I felt so sorry for myself, it started again this morning at about 10am, not enjoying it at all! It's weird though as I feel sick as a dig but haven't once been sick yet??

frozen omg I am awful at the moment, watched frozen planet on Wednesday and was in tears throughout, cried about it last night again when I was telling my mother how awful it was... embarassing!

greengoose Good luck with the shop opening tomorow, fingers crossed it goes smottly for you!

Ecstatica Good Luck with the house move, I don't envy you, we moved this year 3 weeks before our wedding - what a mad few weeks that was!

I'm not having the nuchal tests, it wouldn't change my course of action with the baby, I have no downs in the family and it came back the baby could have downs it would only create anguish amongst relatives and cause unnessesary stress to myself through them panicing. Talked it through with DH and mum and they fully support my decision, my mother has worked in a special school for all of my life and I have been surrounded by all types of disabilities, Downs is not something that would make me think of my options so I'm just not getting it done.

Also my SIL has 3 children, her first was given something like a 1 in 10 chance of having downs and she seriously considered her options, the others were 1 in 10,000 or something ridiculously high.... all 3 children are perfectly healthy!

Anyway I understand it is totally a personal choice, just make sure you don't get bullied into doing it if you don't want to!

I have a busy weekend ahead, ordered some new furniture last weekend so this weekend will mostly be spent changing rooms around etc... oh the fun!

Hope everyone is feeling ok today!

Xx

Morning all

Thanks for the advise yesterday....I'll let DH have his wicked way as long as he goes easy! I also need to egt the flu job but might wait until my booking apt (which I haven't got the date for yet).

9 weeks today...hopefully only 3 more weeks until I feel normal again (optimistic I know!) :) Just can't stay awake.

I agreee frozen, I am really tearful. Cried the whole way Frioen planet the other night...didn't want any animal eating anything!

Good luck green for the shop opeining. At least you can look at all the cute baby clothes as an incentive to get through the day! The sickness won't last forever. Any more ducks to prepare? My dog got given an liver cake foer her 1st birthday the other day and the smell really did make me wretch!

Anyway gotta go, just want work to be over. At least it's the weekend :)

Have a good one everyone x

hiya everyone, sorry to see your news misslaughalot :(

I am still off work, cough seems to be getting a bit better, but still very very irritating. Sleep is nonexistant, so I'm knackered! And I can't hear anything still, which is a nuisance. Went to minor illness clinic at GPs yesterday and was seen by the snootiest bitch of a nurse. she kept rolling her eyes and tutting when I told her my symptoms, and just told me to go home and take some paracetamol. Was a colossal waste of my time, I left in tears. DH is starting to feel rough too, so looks like a fun weekend ahead of us, yawn.

I am also crying at absolutely everything - the pampers advert in particular, with all the newborns. Every Single Time. DH thinks it's hilarious.

our house is a tip too, I am struggling to keep on top of things. We are eating so much crap as well, microwave meals tonight, and last night was pasta with a pot of sauce bunged on it. I am mainly keeping food down today and yesterday, but from last monday until this wednesday I was barely eating, so my jeans are really baggy. The stupid nurse yesterday, when I said I was worried about dehydration, went 'well, drink more then'. Helpful.

can't wait for monday now, I'm equally dreading and looking forward to it! DH keeps rubbing my tummy and saying 'we'll see the bean soon!', so fingers crossed. I think my abdomen is getting harder, but who knows. Too early to feel the uterus popping out of the pelvis, I'm sure, especially in a fatso like me.

Ooh, I'm off to the mnet xmas meet up in 2 weekends, meant to say - just need to work out what the jeff to wear! Everyone else is frocking it apparently, but I plan to wear smart trousers and a nice top. Now just to find that nice top!! Any suggestions for a party maternity top would be much appreciated!

I'm teary! The pampers advert makes me well up too!

I got all watery eyed at the supermarket today, I was loading dd into a trolley and she was watching someone lift a baby and toddler into one, "look mummy, its a baby" "yes dd" "I love babies, babies are beautiful mummy, can we have a baby, can we please"

Self restraint was required to smile and say maybe sweetie I couldn't bear to tell her incase something went wrong.

Dp then brought ds over and he gets in the seat next to dd, she points out the baby to him and he says, "I know I want a brother" peace is then shattered as the --scream the odds at each other-- debate the pros and cons of another brother/sister. Its like they know!

I'm bleeding I am trying to get a scan tomorrow but it doesn't look hopeful.

Kayzr, thinking of you, I do hope everythings ok. Not sure where you are but here if you go to A+E with bleeding they'll scan.

Take care xxxxx

Kayzr I hope it's a false alarm. Finger and toes crossed for you. I agree go to hosp if no luck over the phone.

readerholic When I saw my GP she said I'd automatically have an amnio as I was over 40 (am 42). However when I mentioned to MW at booking appt she said that was absoloute rubbish. It all depends on outcome of nuchal test and bloods and then it is our decision and ours only. Hope that reassures you. I was 39 when I had DD and it was never mentioned. Again seems to be evidence of inconsistency across the system. Crazy!

Kayzr - hoping you are ok. Take care of yourself it maybe nothing significant.

They won't scan until Monday. The doctor said I can ring back tomorrow but that I will probably be told the same thing.

I'm sorry Kayzr, that's awful you have to wait Are you bleeding a lot? If you're unsure at all I would go to hosp x

Kayzr, my thoughts are with you, hope the bleeding stops and you feel better soon, sending you lots and lots of hugs xx

I have booked a private scan for 1pm tomorrow. So I have got everything crossed that its all ok.

Kayzr I am so sorry!Please try and stay positive,there's lots of stories with a happy ending.Shame you have to wait for scan. xx

reader I am also 36,midwife never mentioned anything when I saw her but in a letter from hospital I have 2 app and 1 is for blood tests on Mon when I'll be 8 weeks.It was initially for last Mon and it says it will take around 1 hour.I def only had my bloods done at 12 weeks previously together with scan so I am guessing it's a different course of action because of my age...
But like others said they inform you what's available and the choice is yours only

x-posted that's good I have everything crossed for you ,too

fingers crossed for you Kazyr xx

hello

Just did a 'reassure myself I'm not pregnant' PT and had the most stonkingly bright pink lines I've ever seen. That must be the least reassuring test I've ever peed on!! I wish I could say I've been swi for ages and am finally celebrating... but to tell the truth we weren't, this isn't the plan, I'm crapping it a bit, and feeling a tad emotional.

I've been feeling utterly pukey for a week, but put it down to the vile bronchitis DS1 and I have been down with. Turns out the puking, crying and bloating (all mine, not DS's!) might have more to do with a sticky bean than a bug.

Yikes!!

DH just got back from boots, ashen faced, with a CBdigi to 'confirm' in the morning. I worked out my dates and I think we're looking at around 15 June... could do with a bit of friendly support right now, and reminding that it's all going to be wonderful and glorious in the end...
