October 2013 hula hoops, daytime snoozes and booking in appointments

[Iheartcrunchiebars]

Here you go. New thread...number 3!

Well I feel like total shit. Sent home from work again last night after managing 5 hours I ended up in the toilets puking for an hour,got told to go home,was leaving & realised I wouldn't even make it to the car let alone home,ran back to toilet & had diarroeh (sorry). Drove home very gingerly to find key left in the lock on door we go in & out of so I couldn't get in,chain on front door to prevent child escape bids,DP's phone going straight to answerphone,dog barked at me ringing the doorbell but was obviously told to be quiet. So I resorted to the only logical next step & cried on the doorstep until he answered the doorbell!!! The poor bugger than got a hormonal irrational tirade when he dared to ask why I was crying & if I was ok. Had more runs,slept ok. Felt better til this afternoon& now unwell again. I'm so over feeling crap.

we finally told my dad this afternoon & he was a bit underwhelmed but I'm sure he'll come round. At least he didn't tell us we were stupid! Could have been worse.

Sorry for everyone else feeling grim too,it does help a little to know others are also suffering

hopefully will find out about booking appt etc tomorrow. Have managed to swap shifts so that I can go to funeral provided I can re-rearrange the appt.

Hope you are all having nice realxing Sundays.xx

Hi All, I hope you are having a nice weekend, and sympathies to those ladies who aren't feeling great.

I was wondering if anyone knows about running in pregnancy. Before I got pregnant I used to run about 4-5 miles 3 times a week, however after my BFP I got a bit scared to carry on, so I stopped! However as I'm feeling ok is it safe for me to restart my running again?! Any advice would be appreciated, I'm currently 9+3. Thanks

Hi flyer. As far as I have read you are safe to continue with your previous exercise regime as your body was used to to it already. I think if you are happy (and able to breathe) to run then you should. I wish I could get into running,just never manage to get past the first few weeks before heavy duty shin splints kick in.

There was recently a thread in pregnancy about a long term runner who was starting to reduce her distances at about 22 weeks because she was starting to find it too heavy going. So there are pregnant runners on the site. See if you can find it in a search...

Hi Flyer, my midwife said keep doing any exercise you did before pregnancy until it becomes uncomfortable. Just dont take up new hobbies!

Hi Flyer,

As Iheart says you can continue with what you have been doing before you got pregnant, but it is not advised to start something your body wasnt used to doing before, if that makes sense?!

I have been continung to run and do my exercise class, but I am taking it slower. I found I was getting out a breath a lot faster than I did before, which was quite annoying. Something to do with increased blood volume I think. Despite feeling absolutely knackered at the moment I am still forcing myself to run and I really do feel a million times better afterwards, so would def recommend it! I plan to continue to do so until it starts to feel uncomfortable.

Thanks Very much. Yes I heard about people getting out of breath quite easily, I will resume tomorrow but maybe take it a bit slower than normal. Cheers again x

When I was pregnant with DD I was suddenly unable to run even half as far before becoming knackered - at 5 weeks - and then morning sickness put a stop to any exercise by 7 weeks.

My ex SIL however was still running marathons (allbeit slower) at 7 months pregnant - I think it's a very personal thing...

I'm a keen exerciser and I'm still doing my usual body attack and body pump classes but just with some modified moves if I feel myself getting too hot or breathless. The main thing is not to take up anything new and don't get so out of breath you can no longer hold a conversation. I'm a trained fitness instructor and have a good book on exercise in pregnancy so can look up anything if anyone has any questions.

Hi Flyer, I am a runner, I ran to 27 weeks last pregnancy. This time I am 10 weeks and have been running 10-16 miles a week, nothing over 7 miles so far. My easy pace has dropped a fair amount since pre-pregnancy and I haven't done any speed work, just stick to general running. The general guideline is listen to your body, and run at conversational pace, if you can only gasp out single words then you are going too fast. And if you are feeling knackered then just skip the run, as I did this afternoon- I went for a nap instead!! I suggest you pop over to Fetcheveryone.com and look for the Fetch Pregnancy Club thread in the Forum, it's a lovely supportive thread where people range from having given up running completely to running up to and including the day they gave birth. Running in pregnancy is a very individual thing, you have to do what feels right for you, really.

Can I have a moan? DH and I disagree on social media so I asked him not to put pregnancy on Facebook yet as too early (12 weeks) but he wanted news on straight after scan. Anyway, tonight I am getting congrat messages from everyone, turns out he has deleted me from his page and shared the news. I am so hurt I can't even speak

Wow! Jelly, I don't really know what to say about that. I would be f*cking furious!!!

Oh jelly im so sorry dp did that to you im sure it was pure excitment and not from a bad place but its still not on

Btw new thread needed

Jelly that's not nice. if you had definitely asked him not to do that and he has then that's not on. I would be fuming. but like others have said,its just coming from a place of real excitement. my biggest thing with Facebook is I want to absolutely make sure I tell people in rl before they find out on that so I understand if ur upset that that has been taken away from you! x

I'm with u on that jelly I too would be absolutely fuming! I'm dying to share my news all over fb its killing me not too but I'm reigning it in until 12 weeks even tho its killing me only 2 weeks 2 days to wait!
I've told some of my closer friends too keep my excitement under control lol
Ps. Praying for a good nights sleep tonight!!! Hope everyone else sleeps well xxxx

You too Natalieand. Neighbours had loud party last night so I'm shattered

jelly my dh did similar by writing a status about me being in hospital and the correct try name for the diagnosis so obv ppl but two and two together when they read hyperemesis gravidarum. Although I quietly seethed I understood he didn't do it to upset or annoy me so hoping your dp did the that too. To delete you first though is pretty mean.

Any ideas for New thread name? Something witty!

"Oct 2013- This thread will get us to the end of Trimester 1... Just kidding!"

So sorry Mrs Excited

Thanks for support ladies have calmed down a little but still not amused. Have now had to tell more people at work as they are friends with DH on FB. Not sure whether more angry about being deleted or about him breaking our news without me, bloody hormones!

Today is a new day though so happy Monday everyone

I'd be fuming jelly but you're right it's probably not worth getting stressed over.

Happy Monday everyone. I've woken up after a much better nights sleep, no sickness and its lovely and sunny...and I'm having a baby yipppeeee! Have a great day everyone x

Frickin he'll jelly. Feel free to share your rants with us. I'd be effing and blinding all over the place if that happened to me, but then I'm a very private person too and also constantly have The Rage thanks to pregnancy hormones. Agree with other posters here that at least it comes from a good place (excitement about baby), even if it's misguided. And that after the initial rage, don't let it stress you out. I'm pretty sure all our DPs, however angelic, will commit major faux pas during this parenthood process!

I've been really annoyed lately by certain friends treating unavoidable signs that I might be pregnant as major gossip that they have shared with really close friends of mine. I wish they'd be mature enough to think that if I am truly pregnant as they suspect, then I'd want the joy of breaking the news to my best friends myself. Why would they ruin that surprise for me? Grrr. I would hope that we're at an age where we all have discretion and respect for privacy, as opposed to acting like the Daily Mail.

yikes jelly like everyone else id be fuming but think your looking at it the right way that hes excited.
Thats really rubbish about yor freinds too dunpling mine have been the complete opposite and hadnt mentioned anything... was starting to think.no one cared but told 2 close friends a couple of weeks ago and turned out theyd guessed but didnt want to say anything incase they were wrong and it would cause me stress as they knew we were TTC. Your best friends will be happy for you when you tell them and at least the gossip is real, although yes immature.
about 11 weeks today(maybe more from research scan) and have my 12 week scan today. Tummy has also popped out overnight not really hideable without baggy clothes. No weight gain yet but theres definitely a bump. thank goodness my scans early. Hope everyone had a good night!

Have u calmed down a little now jelly? How far along are you (sorry terrible memory)

I think I'm about a minute away from having a breakdown lol. Dd is currently screaming at the breakfast table in protest against breakfast. I have yet another sore throat and have been awake around 70% of the night and now I'm getting the hump with dh cos he isn't asking me if I'm ok or how I'm feeling. It sounds rediculous when I write it all down but doesn't feel rediculous at the time. 2 weeks 2 days till scan day!!

Who has 12 week scans this week? Xxxx
