Off to night shift soon so just had a little cat nap zzzz

harverina · 23/03/2013 16:49

I am having a lazy day too. Just up and had a bath.

I actually feel worse for it - feel really tired and sick with a headache but hopefully my body will take some benefit from all the rest?

Anyway dd is napping just now and we are all going to get ready and head to the local child friendly pub for dinner. I am craving meat, particularly steak, BIG TIME!! I might have to have a well done steak Grin

sorry you're experiencing spotting vix hopefully that's all it'll turn out to be. i've probably said before on this thread that i has quite a bit of that with dd2, who's now 3 & quite the cheekiest monkey so try n rest & relax a bit if possible x

i've spent the day trying to make a rather elaborate cake for dd1. knackered now & having a lie down before bedtime. i'm another spotty one - it's all over my cheeks like teenage acne. not feeling sick today, but my ms never kicked in till 8 weeks or so properly speaking on my two previous pgs, so hopefully nothing to worry about.

forgot to say thanks poppyseed for re-adding me.

managed to tell yet another complete stranger about my pg today! wtf is the matter with me? went in to a local holistic health place to try & book some pg yoga classes & not only did i then have to tell the receptionist , but there was a queue of women ( hopefully no-one i even vaguely know, although everyone knows everyone round here!) & they all heard too Blush. i have to stop this madness before end up blurting it out to random people at bust stops. i'm still only 5 +4. i think.

CheeseandGherkins · 23/03/2013 17:39

I'm sooo tired and my head hurts, plus I now feel sick after dinner so I'm hoping it stays down. Watching a film with the kids now. Snow but isn't settling and more tomorrow according to the weather.

I fancy chocolate, cake and ice cream even though I feel sick Confused

BangOn · 23/03/2013 17:39
  • bus stops, not bust stops lol!

Hello all

Vix Thinking of you and wishing you the best.

In the last couple of days I've gone from hungry eating everything to queasy not feeling like eating anything at all. Mainly been surviving on jelly. Really fancying prawn crackers but we have none in the house.

Time seems to be going so slowly at the moment. Can't wait until my first scan really so I can tell people. I've told my brother and he has been sworn to secrecy. I'd like to tell the rest of the family too, but will wait until we know everything is OK.

honey86 · 23/03/2013 18:43

fx for you vix x x

Dizzy81 · 23/03/2013 18:46

Vix, out your feet up and rest.

Arty one, I know how you feel about time going slowly.

I was eating crisps at 9 this morning and then an hr later! I cannot stop eating. But if I din eat I feel sick. Go figure?! The moo d swings ha e started. Also getting funny feelings in my tummy, then turns out I need to let out a fart. Grrr

OneLittleToddleTerror · 23/03/2013 18:58

vix fx for you. My mc started with pink blood too, so brown is hopefully ok.

I haven't told anyone yet. I accidentally slipped it to my mum at 6 weeks last month, and then had an mc the next day. I felt bad having to crush their hopes as they got excited about the thought of another grandchild. I will wait till the 12 weeks scan this time.

I felt really tired today too. Felt asleep watching dd play on my bed! DH was very sweet and took dd down to watch some peppa pig. (She won't leave us alone unless either Dora or peppa is on tv). Got a half hour beauty sleep. I don't get to lie in nowadays as dd wakes at 6am everyday. She has no concept of weekends yet. Looking forward to going to bed early tonight.

CheeseandGherkins · 23/03/2013 19:02

Dizzy my mood swings have been terrible for a little while. So bad!

Onelittle my 6 year old wakes around 6am...luckily I wake early now anyway! Even my 13 month old sleeps in but we all get up early so we're ready for bed at a decent time!

harverina · 23/03/2013 19:53

Just back from dinner had an amazing ribs n' steak combo with peppercorn sauce. It was just what I needed! Home now to watch a DVD. Dd is still up, it's past her bedtime but she napped till 5 which was convenient for us - we avoided taking a tired toddler out for dinner. So we are watching a Disney DVD with popcorn in our jammies - I pyjama party!

Vix been thinking of you and hope you are ok and getting rest. It's easy for me to say try not to worry bit I hope your ok Thanks

honey86 · 23/03/2013 20:13

@ harv... jel! wheres my steak Grin

ive been sat at home at day like a hermit... bathing my daughter in calamine Hmm poor bubba aint appreciating it x

Fairydogmother · 23/03/2013 20:25

Fingers xd for you vix

I have lost the ability to eat. One bit of pizza and I feel stuffed?! Have a bad feeling I've another chest infection starting as I'm coughing all the time Sad

vix206 · 23/03/2013 20:28

No news is good news, right? Nothing to report so hoping this is just a little niggle but will come back in the morning...

Fairydogmother · 23/03/2013 20:33

It is a common symptom but I know that's absolutely no reassurance for you.

Hopefully it'll go away x

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 23/03/2013 20:59

Thinking of you vix. It happened to me when pregnant with dd (all was well).
This is a really personal question so feel free to ignore but did the bleeding happen after sex / fooling around.

It started with me are dh and I had a little fun together (no sex). I'm convinced the orgasam giggled things up a bit. Sorry everyone probably tmi

Fairydogmother · 23/03/2013 21:13

It happened to me after sex too

Ariel21 · 23/03/2013 23:41

Hello all! Hello newbies!

FX for you Vix - I hope everything is ok.

Is everyone experiencing sickness? I haven't had any yet - should I have done? Am about 5 weeks. I have been feeling famished and dizzy and lightheaded but no actual sickness or nausea. Maybe it will happen soon.

We decided to tell both sets of parents, mainly because we want their support whatever happened - and my husband has told one of his best friends (or should I say, he guessed.) I'm nervous about it as I wouldn't want to disappoint them if things don't work out, but we live close by and see them often so would be hard to hide it.

Did another Clearblue the other night and it switched to "2-3 weeks", whoop!

harverina · 24/03/2013 05:28

Grrrr have been awake for an hour already while dd and dh are snoring Hmm

vix206 · 24/03/2013 07:49

I've been awake since 4, fretting. No change, still trying to be hopeful!
