I have eaten too much, I think I might be sick...

fancyacupoftea · 10/06/2014 20:13

Did you make pulled pork from scratch? Sounds soooo nice!

htbftm · 10/06/2014 20:21

Poly that's awesome about your Dad! You must be so proud!
Lol, thanks for the pic Linda! I'm firmly with Calling on the middle pic lol!
Thinking of youBroody! If its any consolation, I bled the whole way through my last pregnancy! Not gr8 lol, and my likkle munchkin was 6 weeks early, but perfect and healthy! Hes now a strapping 18 year old 6ft something! x

EnglishGirlsReturned · 10/06/2014 20:29

Pulled pork is my absolute fave!! Very jealous Mlle

Poly - go Daddy! How amazing!!

CallingAllEngels · 10/06/2014 21:16

Congrats to your dad poly

english is it your scan tomorrow? If so good luck.

EnglishGirlsReturned · 10/06/2014 21:22

yep calling, thank you - 10.30!! Shitting myself!

MademoiselleG · 10/06/2014 21:25

Not quite from scratch, no. I bought a semi ready-made pork shoulder fir pulled pork from Sainsbury's! It wasn't too bad but a lot of waste, fat and unsightly bits. But it was 'only' an hour in the oven.

I'm totally that middle teacher right now Linda. I'm also soooo fat and showing, I was hoping the kids wouldn't notice until September but I saw a few of my Y10 students (girls) staring today...

barmybunting · 10/06/2014 21:31

Linda, I am feeling very like that middle teacher just now... I am on a serious countdown to the end of term! 6 weeks and 2 days to go... I am missing teaching in Scotland at the moment because they finish in 3 and 1/2 weeks!

How are you all coping with this heat? I usually love the warmth but it driving me mad at the moment, just too hot to cope so I dread to think what I will be like when actually heavily pregnant in Aug/Sept as opposed to the 17 weeks I am now.

Treaclepie19 · 10/06/2014 21:32

Hi all. Just popping in as I lost you and wanted to keep my seat warm.
Hope you're all ok x

fancyacupoftea · 10/06/2014 21:40

Good to see you Treacle! How are you? Have you had your proper period yet?

English good luck for tomorrow! Got everything crossed.

My scan is a week on Thursday. Is it too much just to tell everyone STRAIGHT AWAY so I don't have to hide it at work anymore? Except from the kids. They can just keep thinking I'm fat.

PolytheneGirl · 10/06/2014 21:43

Barmy I had DS in August and the last few weeks were a nightmare. I had to sleep with a cold wet towel on my feet and spent most of the day sat with my feet in a paddling pool. I'm glad this one will be a winter baby.

Fancy I'm all for spreading the word! It's like a huge weight has been lifted and it just makes you feel sooooo good when everyone is so happy for you.

English good luck for the morning. How many weeks are you now?

OP posts:
EnglishGirlsReturned · 10/06/2014 21:52

Thanks ladies.
Poly - think I'm 7-8 weeks. Because at the last scan they gave 4-5 weeks based on what they saw. Hopefully we'll see everything and they'll give me a more exact date.

PolytheneGirl · 10/06/2014 21:54

Oooo you should see much more this time then. I hope all is well with your little bean fx

MademoiselleG · 10/06/2014 21:57

Biiiiig fx English !

I just don't want my horrible toxic colleague to know. I don't want her fake joy and hollow good wishes. Mind you, she's bitter, single and needs a good shag so it'll hurt her more than me!
I'm sure the girls at school will start asking soon. They're that type of girls Shock ... I'll just take offence at how they choose to discuss my excessive love of pain au chocolat!

Treaclepie19 · 10/06/2014 21:58

Thanks fancy :)
I'm ok, getting by. Not had it yet :( apparently it could be up to another 4 weeks :/

freneticfox · 10/06/2014 22:07

Went to see a good friend this evening, who knows that I'm pregnant. She'd put together a little 'care' package for me, with vitamins, bubble bath and a couple of baby goodies. Was so touched I cried for most of the drive home! Emotions ramping up big time!

MademoiselleG · 10/06/2014 22:18

Big warm hug to you Treacle , I miss you!

frenetic that is so, so nice of your friend. Make sure you surround yourself with lots of lovely people like her! I'm totally going to do this for pg friends in the future.

EnglishGirlsReturned · 10/06/2014 22:22

What a lovely friend Frenetic!

Treacle, hope you're WTF cycle ends soon and you can get back to normal. Look after yourself and we'll keep a seat warm for you here!

Treaclepie19 · 10/06/2014 22:22

Aww thanks mademoiselle. I really miss you! All of you.

Once my period comes ill be happier. At least then we can start trying again. Then I'll be back :)

Treaclepie19 · 10/06/2014 22:22

Thanks English :) cross post haha.

RetroHippy · 10/06/2014 22:42

Good to see you treacle, for once I hope AF turns up soon for you!

Good luck at the scan tomorrow English, will be popping on at lunchtime for an update.

I ate too much fruit this evening Sad I now have a tummy ache. Feel proper inflated, and keep getting the urge to go, but not much happening. Can't help feeling it'll be impressive when it happens! For now, just feel yuk.

Had PPA today and achieved nothing. Need to pull my finger out now whilst I have the energy really. 5 1/2 weeks to go...

broodysnoopstie · 10/06/2014 22:45

Thanks for your little glimmer of hope HTB. Spotting heavier still dark brown but with a very occasional red... plus Black clotty type bits. plus cramps. I feel like at this rate I won't make it to scan on thursday. Feels like it's a bad omen to now be seeing a bit of red Sad
