I honistly don't know how you could eat in the night, I think it's just in my head it's totally wrong, ive never got the midnight snack thing!
don't get me wrong, I'm a greedy bitch in the day Grin

FrustratedSycamoreBonks · 04/11/2012 16:08

I snack a lot in the late evening greedy bitch here too kitty so not snacking at night yet

Can safely say iced tea is not the thirst quenching drink I thought it would be. Hmm just hope the appletise is.

mrs i think towards the end I must have been slightly on my side, but mainly on tummy, really not sure how I managed it. But it was the only way I was able to get any sleep.

Thundernonk · 04/11/2012 16:28

Nope no fundus here. Think I am actually just ill and not pregnant after all...

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 16:34

No fundus here either, I think! Maybe it'll come later :-)

I only snack as trumpets said it may help me get back to sleep, and I'm willing to try anything, rather than lie awake! Seemed to work this morning.

And, if anybody fancies a nosey, here's the link to our wedding photos:

There are bloody LOADS to get through though, so I don't blame you if you don't bother!

Sit yourself back down thunder < shakes fist>
I've no idea what this fundas milarkey is but I can't feel mine either, I could never understand where they were measuring to later either, it all seems the same to me

Thundernonk · 04/11/2012 16:51

Crikey! Alright kitty

Lovely pics nic, you had a beautiful day as well- it all came together! You look like you were having a smashing time.

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 16:51

Ha ha, kitty, I don't get that kind of thing, either. I'm sure I will continue to have no clue throughout the entire pregnancy.

Similarly, when I was learning to drive and looking for some mystical mark in my wing mirror while reversing round a corner! Thank god I didn't get that on my test, as I was continually baffled. And who really cares if you reverse 12 inches from the kerb? As long as you get back on your side of the road without crashing! :-)

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 16:52

Thanks, Thunder...we had lovely weather and a great time. I love how we're laughing in so many of them :-)

FrustratedSycamoreBonks · 04/11/2012 18:13

I love your dress mrs

Fundus check - Confused I may or may not be able to feel what may or may not be it, but whatever it was i was poking now feels odd from all the poking. Grin

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 18:21

Thank you...it hangs in the lounge now #flatistoosmalltostoredresses

Not sure I'd squueze in now!

I'll avoid poking things for now, I think. :-)

FrustratedSycamoreBonks · 04/11/2012 18:24

Hmm, mines in the attic, I reckon it would fit. may be a bit tighter on the bust

I wouldn't recommend poking. Feeling quite squiffy now.

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 18:34

I need an attic!

I felt quite constricted on the day...my slightly bigger bump wouldn't appreciate it now, I think.

I'll definitely avoid poking. :-/

FrustratedSycamoreBonks · 04/11/2012 19:02

I'm rather glad I do have one, since I have a cot, and loads of new-baby sized clothes stored up there along with loads of other crap not to mention the ton of crap stored in the garage

kittykatskumkwat · 04/11/2012 19:05

Hmmm maybe the fist shaking was abit much Wink

Thundernonk · 04/11/2012 20:19

I wondered that, but then I figure I shouldn't cross a pregnant woman...

Pretzels. Everyone with nausea needs to eat pretzels. The little crunchy kind, not the big soft ones. & pick out the less salty looking ones to start with! Seriously, they absorb all the nasty acid & make me feel soooo much better within minutes! Grin

I've been poking too. I can feel a harder bit & a softer bit above it so I guess that's what that is!

I've been getting some funny crampy pains today & keep getting... concerned! I think it only happens when I really need a wee & lie on my right! Weird! I've always had issues knowing when I need a wee before I really need to go so maybe I need to set an alarm to remind myself to go more often! Confused

I can't see pretty wedding pics! Sad The link just brings up a list of places!

FrustratedSycamoreBonks · 04/11/2012 20:28

Hey jojo I'm certain it's a need to wee cramping, because I get it too, around the belly button, and goes when I do. Wink

Grin at thund messing with a pregnant woman...

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 20:40

That's odd, Jojo. Wonder if it is to do with a dodgy mobile site.

Find the 'galleries' link, click on 'recent weddings' and then we are Nicola and Brian. Should be at the top.

Just started to take lactulose as I'm finding the digestive discomfort / constipation a real problem. Fx it works. Only taking a half dose, as I am going, just not often enough (TMI!).

peardrop2 · 04/11/2012 21:53

Please can I have an understanding hug :-( In a lot of pain because of the constipation and its causing sharp pains to the right of my pubic bone. Broke down in tears tonight because my DD cups started throbbing again and basically had a little selfish poor me cry in the bath :-( Final straw when my mobile wouldn't let me see mrsbri wedding photos :-/ Seriously hormonal and DH thinks I've lost the plot :-(

peardrop2 · 04/11/2012 21:55

I get the cramping wee thing too

peardrop2 · 04/11/2012 21:58

MrsBri I hope you told DH to be quiet ;-) I've stopped eating in the middle of the night now. Maybe it happens at growing spurts?!

FrustratedSycamoreBonks · 04/11/2012 22:09

Hugs for pear

I'm stroppy rather than teary, which is normal for pg for me, I'm not a nice pregnant woman.
I've been having some rather strong cramps today, sodding trapped wind. It's really not pleasant, so you have my full sympathy pear

Back to work tomorrow. I think I really will cry if my work trousers don't fit.

Jojoba1986 · 04/11/2012 22:09

Did the bath help? Warm water helped with my post-baby engorgement so might help before too! I'm lactating already! Hope you feel a bit more stable soon pear!

MrsBri · 04/11/2012 22:10

Awww...poor Peardrop :-( A very big, un MN hug to you.

I know you have far worse constipation than me. I really feel for you.

It is all very odd how things are spurty. Except my breasts, which are constant.

I hope you feel less hormonal soon. And scan soon :-)
