How's everyone doing? ! Been sick again this morning...just as soon as I think hooray it's gone! Hah! Well is snowing here again and i'm having a couch day!

Ok, I'm back to normal. Was meant to be temporary NC!

trueblue mine has never fully gone! I was sick twice this week Confused. Less frequent though from about 14 weeks though :)

I got to cuddle a baybee today. He is luffly, all blonde hair and blue eyes! He's about 12 weeks old. Very strange to have him in my arms while Pickle kicked me from the inside :) She had a quiet day - course when I was miles from home! Was on the verge of getting attention when she finally started moving. Little monkey! Back to normal today.

I'm still a bit itchy but not as bad. If it continues, I'll go on the GP on Wednesday when I have a day off.

Jeff I found I was absolutely shattered the first few Weeks...strangely I thought as I was off work for xmas and we weren't doing much. The tiredness hopefully goes eventually but i'm still sleeping loads. I have found going to aerobics helps strangely enough!

Totally normal. I had experienced nothing like it.

I'm not going to state the obvious though...

I would get gone from work and sleep in the bath for at least 45 minutes every night! I was stupidly tired.

I thought baths were Not Good until after 12 weeks? I've just been fast asleep for an hour on the sofa.

Baths are fine as long as they're not too hot - sudden changes in temperature are bad for baybees.

I have just hung sone curtains. We bought them about 18 months ago (before the fire). I am not very good at hanging curtains Confused Didn't help that I'd bought the right length but MSB put the rail as low as possible Hmm I had to wonderment them to the right length! Ah well, they look good now!

We bought new curtains for the spare room months ago. I put one up & then managed to pull the string out of the other one. Left it lying about thinking that I'd wrecked it & would have to buy a new pair. Came home last week & our amazing cleaner had hung it up. She said she was sick of looking at it!!

I started off with baths that were lukewarm instead of my usual boiling but I quickly upped the temp when I realised it would unlikely be a problem...they're warm now but just not as hot as I used to!
Curtains...well a still have the boring curtains that the previous owners left in most rooms...I keep thinking we must change them but curtains arms so expensive!

I'm petrified of Doing Anything Wrong. Being tired seems to be the one symptom I have. My boobs just feel 'different'. And I'm starving all the time Grin

Yeah the being scared thing is still with me too...I haven't died my hair and when another pregnant workmate was going on about still eating runny eggs I nearly cried with jealousy! I know the likelihoodof getting salmonella from a lion egg is really really slim but I just can't bring myself to do it.

I had baths all the way through. It was probably the only place I was truly comfortable.

I also are runny eggs. I love them and decided I couldn't live without them.

Silly eh?

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 10/02/2013 21:57

I have been having baths, usually 3 times a week (MSB runs me baths for when I get home from work!) with no concerns. I had runny eggs this morning. The only eggs I have been extra cautiously well cooked were from my Aunty-in-law's chickens. I was fine.

Ok, I'm still mega itchy. Seems to be worse at night. Have slathered in cream and hoping it'll settle but I do think I might have to get this checked out Confused. Also my, ahem, fanjo is quite swollen. I had this after we did the sechs but this is spontaneous (no sechs been had for a while!). I'm going to try to sleep and ignore it all and hope it settles down.

My only bending of the rules was a runny egg or two.

I had a fried egg sandwich last week

I also forgot to take my progesterone tonight until now

Faith itching limbs & swollen fanjo don't sound like a pleasant combination. Are you planning on seeing the doctor? Hope you get some sleep.

I think you need to exert realistic caution. Like I have avoided Brie etc but not too previous.

I'm now officially on clear fluids til 12 when I have my abdo ultrasound. I'm not really worried about it. The pain has never got as bad as when I was as admitted, although it has come and gone a few times. I've decided the itching is definitely worse at night which can be an indication of certain problems so I think I need to see the docs. Especially worse between my buzzwams?! Falling apart, aren't I?!

House needs a bit of tidying but I'll see how much time I've got before the scan/work once I've got up.
