Yes it is my first goinggrey, I am usually a size 8 so guessing the baby had no where to go but out (quite early on).

Marking spot.

Hope everyone's having a good weekend, I'll catch up later - running around like a mad thing today!

E xx

daisychain07, ahh me too, my usual size is 16 but could get into 12s and 14s when i lost all weight, my friends at work said you can tell it's not food fatness, its baby shaped!! and it does look a completely different shaped to my normal fatness plus its very hard at times too, its going to be a busy and exciting first week back at school that's for sure!!

Marking my place on the thread!

Good afternoon. Place marking

Placemarking. Hope all are well.

Pelvic pain is really hurting now - I manage through the week, having the short night sleeps that come with hubs hours and normal requirements (would get 6 hours if I slept through but never do), walking the dog etc and then I get to the weekend and it's like my body goes "nope". Such a pain. Only 8 weeks left at work though.

So off to mooch about when I should be vacuuming upstairs!

Just got back from the emergency gps, I've gota chest infection and antibiotics, apparently us pregnant ladies are more susceptible to germs!!

Oh no goinggrey1978 at least you didn't just put it down to being a cough and saw a gp, now you can get it sorted ☺ hope you feel better soon

Bigfam, thanks it was only because i rang my pharmacist to check whether i could have any cough mixture and she said that i needed to see a doctor that i rang 111, lucky i did, at least i'm coughing up the yellow and green gunk though!!

Hope you feel better soon goinggrey - take care of yourself!

Happy weekend everyone!

I'm off to google GD symptoms now. I have no risk factors (i presume, nobody has mentioned anything) but I do consume a lot of sugar and I'm peeing an awful lot

I hope the antibiotics kick in soon, goinggrey

For the past few days I feel like I did in my 1st trimester! I've had nausea (and vomited twice) and have also just been feeling dizzy/exhausted. I'm almost 27 weeks now, not sure if this is normal as you get towards final trimester? I felt amazing from 12-24 weeks! I got back from travelling around south east Asia for 2.5 weeks so I'm hoping its just a bit of jet lag! Anyone else had return of nausea?

I did the energetic task of sorting some washing put this morning and had to sit down cos I got dizzy and hot. Had a lie down then promptly had to run to be sick. I really thought I'd seen the end of it, I had regular sickness until 23 weeks. Bleurgh, I've got nothing done for the rest of the day.

Get well soon goinggray and gutted for kitch and babydreaming with the return of vomiting. Hopefully its a one off for you. X

Oh no, the return of nausea sounds terrible! I hope it's just a passing thing.

I just ordered a bargain Chicco Next 2 Me, they're €219 everywhere here but Bol (bit like Dutch Amazon) have it reduced to €169 today. I wasn't going to order it until we're ready to put stuff in the nursery (currently an office), but didn't want to miss the good price!

Place marking

thanks everyone, the coughing is just annoying and giving me a headache, so off to bed soon with some paracetamol

Kitch82, i use a little stool to load my washing machine as it saves me having to bend down and having head rushes and having hot flushes

Place marking

Get well soon all those who are feeling crap! I've been sick today as well, I'm hoping it's a one off - most of my sickness ended by about 18/20 weeks but I've found that if I'm under the weather I'll just be sick, maybe lower immune system with being pregnant??

tipboov sorry about your gd! I was going to suggest the gestational diabetes U.K. FB group too, there's loads of support in there! I had gd last time and although it does mean more monitoring everything went okay - hope it doesn't affect the kind of birth you get too much!

goinggrey that's a fab idea, thanks. Deffo think the repeated bending over brought it on.

I have had awful sickness all the way through. At 16 weeks I was put in anti sickness tablets which have worked wonders. I have tried to stop taking them a couple of times and the sickness returns immediately. Think I'll stick to the tablets!

Place marking! to all who have sickness and nausea!

Insomnia strikes again... Woke up about 4am and my brain decided it would be a good time to try and work out the timings of my maternity leave and calculate it all which has totally woken me up. Grrr. Hope the rest of you are having a nice deep sleep!

nightcap been awake since 6 with the youngest (trying to watch tv but dp is snoring his head off!) Also have a banging headache
