November 2015 mums to be! Here we are! Our bus is decorated with scan pics, our appetites are beginning to heal, and spring is in the air!

[Focusfocus]

Here is the new thread for November ladies! Let's smell the flowers, regain our sense of taste and keep chatting!

focus poor you. I think I saw your other thread. As everyone's said - you'll be feeling extra crap because anything good will be going to baby, I hope you're starting to feel a bit better soon

Ah ladystark have just seen your news - congratulations! Lovely news

Congrats ladystark! lovely news xxx

hope your feeling better today focus could somebody update my stats please now due 24/10

Congratulations lady!

Last night I accidentally drank half a bottle of cider :( had some bottles of alcohol free koppaberg with another pregnant friend and an alcoholic bottle snuck in the mix and I didn't realise. I'm 11+4. Please make me feel better and tell me someone else has done similar??

Thank you so much everyone! Well, 24 hours after the thing began, I've woken up feeling absolutely fine. As in - literally no signs of anything having happened, and I had to think this morning if I had dreamt it all up. Yesterday was spent on those nasty oral fluid thingies and lots of water. For dinner I had a bit of hot clear soup and a teensy bit of mash. Fell asleep for the night and voila, this morning all is cool! Sincerely hope these 24 hours wouldn't have done babe any harm.

Thanks so much for sharing your stories and support!

Congratulations Lady! That was us in feb 2014 and what an exciting year it has been since then- enjoy this moment!

coffee baby will be fine. Lots of women still drink a glass of wine I think every so often. I was a massively irresponsible teenager when I had DS1 and didn't find out til late on that I was pregnant and no harm came to him - our bodies are amazing

Congrats lady that's so exciting!

Glad you're feeling better focus

coffee the baby will be absolutely fine, if we worried about every small toxin we ingested because of our growing babies we'd be living on homemade bread & filtered water. I know it's an emotive subject but I had half a glass of wine last night over at a friend's house with dinner, I told myself I would have a teeny bit every once in a while after the first trimester. I completely understand when people say why would you bother, it's only nine months but everyone's perception of risk & what's acceptable is different.

Like rough said there are babies born every day to women who didn't know they were pregnant & were drinking/not taking folic acid/eating unpasteurised cheeses/bungee jumping and their babies are fine!

Coffee I'm guessing that's about 1 unit? I'm not sure what the current advice is but last pregnancy it was that a couple of units a week was ok. I tend not to myself but will have things like a champagne toast at a wedding as it's the odd special occasion and not every day. So I guess I have a couple of units per pregnancy!

Thanks everyone. I had a small glass of champagne to celebrate and I would not worry about half a bottle of cider. Remember that they used to recommend a pint of Guinness a day!

Haha I was anaemic last pregnancy and a Guinness for my iron was suggested by a family member! I got a prescription instead

Yummmmmmm Guinness!

Actually on a real computer for once so I've updated myself

Thanks everyone, I'm feeling fine about it now it just freaked me out a bit when I realised! I'll be glad to be out of the first trimester when I can hopefully relax a bit more :)

Coffee I'm feeling too sick to drink at the moment but once it passes I'll probably have a small glass of wine every now and then, there's no evidence it causes any harm in small amounts.

Could someone update me too please. My dd is now 15/11. Thanks

Woo, congratulations lady!

I wouldn't worry about a little drink. I am going to see a friend in Vienna at the end of May and I am going to allow myself a couple of glasses of wine over the weekend. And also at a wedding in July. I had the occasional drink during my last pregnancy and all was fine. I think in France they even recommend pregnant women to have a glass of wine every other day! :)

Argh, carpal tunnel syndrome has started for me already! Had it really bad when pg with ds but not until the third trimester! Really hope it won't last for the rest of my pregnancy.

karma what does it feel like? I've been getting a numb left hand which then feels 'buzzy' but it's not carpal tunnel, the physio did tell me what it was but ive forgotten something I get anyway not just in pregnancy IYSWIM

I won't be drinking while pregnant but that's because I only like rum and vodka and I think that would seem much worse than a glass of wine/a cider etc!

It's numbness and tingling in my hands and sometimes my whole arms, especially if I'm in bed. Last time I had to wear a hand brace on my left hand as it got quite weak. It hasn't got that bad yet but still uncomfortable.

Gah, I've been awake since before 0500 & today was supposed to be a lazy lie in type day.

Thinking of you today stalphonsos I hope the procedure goes ok & fingers crossed for the result x

I've got a midwife appointment tomorrow, will be nearly 14 weeks, should I ring up and move it to two weeks time as think it's supposed to be my 16 week check up (my dates moved by a week)

karma sorry to hear that - really hope it lessens a bit. Things like that are a bugger!

Thanks so much flyingsprocket we're doing OK and fingers crossed it will all work out.

Finger crossed and sending good wishes from me too StAlphonsos.
