I know we said we'd wait until the end of the month, But I'm so excited. and hungry, and need a wee again, and nervous, and my boobs hurt, and the voyeuristic spiders are still watching me

We'll keep our FX that we all stay the distance, and our ttc sisters will join us soon.

Not like AF cramps they'd be constant for me, and in a different placeits more of an occasional ooh that feels wierd. Maybe cramp is the wrong word. More sort of twingy.

Ooh baby gap. Such cuteness. Also next sale just after Xmas is great for hugely reduced baby clothed luffliness. next baby stuff really lasts and holds its colours

I'm wondering when would be good to buy bump hiding maternity clothes for work. Luckily I wear a few smock style tops anyway, And trousers are loose enough for a while.

It's just dawning on me. I'm going to have a real bump?!! yes I am totally ridiculous

Ok a bit more excitement brewing now!

Thundercatsarego · 23/09/2012 14:40

(sorry to hear about constipation still pear, I was hoping that was going to pass for you by now)

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 14:47

Me too Thunder I seem to have it really bad as I don't read anyone else complaining about it on here :-( Constipation is mentioned lots in the books though which makes me feel a bit better. DH just came home and said did I think it was all the brown rice we've been eating recently....hmmm could be!!

Can't wait for our bumps to grow :-)

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 15:12

Could be the rice Pear you want a helping of grapes, melon and beans. (google slimming world super foods, they're super co they make you go )

Frus thanks for the tip. I was meant to buy grapes and kiwi today and then forgot :-/

peardrop2 · 23/09/2012 16:43

OK it's time to try celery :-(

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 16:50

Celery?

OP posts:
peardrop2 · 23/09/2012 17:02

Read this today...The natural laxative effect of celery helps to relieve constipation. It also helps relax nerves that have been overworked by man-made laxatives.

peardrop2 · 23/09/2012 17:16

Oh how weird. I hate celery but that was the most amazing celery dipped in houmous...think I just found my first new food love!

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 17:23

but Grin at new food love.

I wish I had a bunged up nose. Dog walking and super smelling powers are not a good mix.

OP posts:
peardrop2 · 23/09/2012 17:47

Yuk! Especially when dog makes toilet trips close to your nose :-/

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 17:57

More of a responsible dog owner picking up poo. Rather than dog shitting on face.

Thundercatsarego · 23/09/2012 18:07

Hi ladies, back from very sophisticated mooch around the fair city of Bath. I can't believe I come back to frust's dog shitting on her face. Now that IS rather rude...

On the other hand, if we're talking constipation, I've heard of some oil supplement you can take which softens stools. Flaxseed oil or sonething. Dunno if that would help, pear?

I seem to have the opposite issue, particularly in afternoon/evening, I've started feeling sick after food and after lunch today I thought I was going to have to make a very smelly emergency trip to the loo. Not sure if related to pg or is just my dodgy digestive system.

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 18:17

Gotta be pg thunder coz I'm the same.

Oh and just for you thund, boobs now hurt on walking fast. Will try the trusty stairs tomorrow.

OP posts:
Thundercatsarego · 23/09/2012 18:28

I'm impressed you're walking fast frust, I am back under my trusty duvet in a heap. This is my low energy time of day it would seem!

peardrop2 · 23/09/2012 18:50

I'll try anything! Off I go to google oils

Thundercatsarego · 23/09/2012 19:02

Try flaxeed...

Have just got urge to po my last FRER....

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 19:48

Ah do it thunder but no donuts as thinking of sweet stuff makes me feel nauseous

My fast walking didn't last long, dog had to literally drag me home. And bless him was all worried because I wasn't walking fast enough. I am going to put dd to bed and snuggle under my dovet, although I should have a bath, but eyelids are drooping.

How was Bath? Are you all shopped out.

OP posts:
Thundercatsarego · 23/09/2012 19:56

Was it you talking about Krispy kremes on the other thread? There's a whole KK cafe in Bath, I got very excited at the reference! I've still never tried one.

Not too shopped out as the weather was minging so just pottered. I did buy some purple jeans/trousers (sound dodgy but I think they're nice- my first skinny pair!) and a top with my vouchers.

Feeling a bit spooked by tales of mc, hence the poas urge. Ironically feeling a bit crampy too. No nausea at the thought of food though, that sounds rubbish!

FrustratedSycamorePants · 23/09/2012 20:07

Yes, me and lolcbcb were the krispie kreme natterers. There is no donut quite like them. I don't think I'll be having one any time soon.
I had food aversions with both dds, but no real cravings. Just foods I couldn't touch or think about. Strangely they're foods they won't touch either.

Ooo interesting link!

My OH has asthma and I read one thing about avoiding peanuts in pg if there's a history of allergies including asthma. You heard anything like that?
