January 2014 - Start the new year off with a pop

[MissMedusa]

Any one else hoping for a 2014 baby?

I'm hesitantly dipping my baby toe in the pool after having a mc last October. I'm 4+2 today with my first and hoping and praying this one sticks.

Here's to 2014!

Hi all,

Extra if you are reading in background just a note to say hope you are feeling a bit better.

humpty well done.. I have not sorted my diet out properly yet.. Way too tired.

choco that's all I want to eat too. Fish, chips, pizza sandwiches........

Yoni and MrsAVB. I feel your pain. Away with DF, SIL,BIL and the boys booked the dinner table for 8pm. Well by 8.30pm, I will be falling asleep in my main course....... Roll on bed time...

I know I always ask questions but ladies, is anyone else feeling like they have a swollen bloated tummy? I feel so uncomfortable..

Sorry crossed posts and so sorry to hear that missmakesstuff is there a self referral unit you can get to for a scan tomorrow morning?

List and opening hours etc

MissMakes. I am so sorry you are going through this worrying time. Try not to worry. It may be an idea to think about going to A&E. I know from experience they can give you a scan.

Very bloated LittleMissPeaPod. Full of air!

Yoni yes me too. I had another day of farting all day yesterday but it hasn't eased the swollen feeling.

Thanks, don't worry, I dont want to bring anyone down, there is one self referral about 30 mins away, but I think I will see how bad it is tomorrow. Have just about convinced myself that my boobs don't hurt now, barely any nausea today. Meant to go to cinema later, might ho anyway as will stop me dwelling and give us chance to talk.

MissMake you are not bringing anone down. Not sure what other ladies think but I think the ,out important thing about this thread is the support we can give each other. Even if its just listening and sending a online message.. I hope you feel a bit better soon although I understand what a difficult time this is for you.

Totally agree.

This is about support - good times and bad.

missmakes, you poor thing :( I know how worrying that is and that it's all you can think about. Fingers firmly crossed for you that everything settles down.

Also, what pod said.

MissMake we are very much here to support you! So sorry you are having such a worrying time. I am thinking of you - hope u get some time to chat and support each other tonight. Xxx

Yoni & Pea am very much bloated! Currently living in stretchy combats or pjs when in the house - cant stand anything remotely tight round my tum at the moment....

MrsAVB I am with u on anything non beige being unappealing! Managed a few strawberries today, but mainly eaten crackers and dry cereal!

Toby how weird - I also bought two maltesers bars today but only managed one (very unlike me)!

I bought the big bars

Ok I need some help ladies. I am having to really force myself to drink today - have gone off every squash going and dont even mention water! Last time the only thing I could drink was capri sun, but I drank soooo much of it and its so sugary I would rather find something else. Having drinks with tons of ice is helping a little, but any tips or suggestions would be gratefully received!!!

Ah mine were little bars, but pre preggers I would have probably had the bigguns (who am I kidding, I would DEFINITELY have had the bigguns...)

Oh missmakes that sounds horrid, you poor thing. Is the bleeding very heavy? I read that you can bleed a reasonable amount, but it has to be pretty heavy to be too ominous. Massive fx for you that everything is okay.

Fizzy water, sultana? Fruit juice? Ginger beer?

Also, what pod said, you're not bringing anyone down. We are all here for each other.

Thanks Toby. Will try and find some sort of fruit juice, if I can face another supermarket. I found some apple and ginger a while ago, just need to remember where I got it from....

Oooh, that sounds delicious!

It really was - very refreshing! Will let u know if I find it again...

Yes please. I bet it's lovely mixed with fizzy water or lemonade too.

Oohhhh yes, it would be!

Hi everyone

Sorry extra and missmakes are going through a worrying time. Hope everything works out ok for you. Keep us posted wont you?

I've been fine all day today which is unusual and I'm trying not to worry. I am tired but not as much as last night. Boobs are still a teeny weeny bit sore so I'm taking that as a positive sign.

Wish you could have scanning equipment at home, although I'd probably never be off it and become obsessed. I've so far resisted a private scan.

Had my docs appointment yesterday and he didn't do much just told me a few foods I should avoid and confirmed 29th December as EDD. Need to working midwife for booking in appointment. Will ring on Monday and then that goes me something to look forward to.

Have to go out tomorrow night on a hen do. That will be a challenge, feeling fat, not drinking, not able to tell anyone and wanting to go home at 9pm! I'm turning really anti social!

This has turn into a bit of a ramble, sorry!
