I looove that stuff - its really yummy haha!

I have actually only just started suffering with some aches and pains at night as of this week, I get lower back twinges and then an ache mid back just on my ribs which is super painful. Just started to adopt the pillow between the legs technique in bed, which does seem to be helping.. although they do always seem to be on the floor by the morning!

natienka · 24/03/2017 16:41

So what's the deal with waterproof mattress pads if you have a breathable mattress? Isn't it making it not breathable anymore (and should I care)?

Notyetthere · 24/03/2017 17:30

Nat very good question. I have not thought about it but you do have a point.

OP posts:
DrewOB0 · 24/03/2017 17:44

I went for natural timber, I saw a lot of chips on the second hand painted Ines for sale

CatRash · 24/03/2017 18:56

Lol NAT hadn't thought about it tbh! Just checked though and the mattress protectors say they're waterproof and breathable so no issues there!

Notyetthere · 24/03/2017 19:10

I have also just checked the waterproof protector and it mentions the the waterproofing layer is weaved in with cotton so it is breathable. We bought our snuzpod 2nd hand and bought got a new mattress.

Flappergirl86 · 24/03/2017 19:26

I've had shooting pains across my bum cheeks all week. And not in a kinky way. In a Jesus Christ my arse is seizing up with cramps way.

Bawbles · 24/03/2017 21:59

I've just bought sheets for snuzpod, not bothered with mattress protector as using a sleepyhead on it too so seems pointless?!

Lallypopstick · 25/03/2017 06:48

Week 24 - viability week!!! Still not massively showing with a bump though, which makes me mildly anxious. I'm hoping it's because I'm fairy tall with broad hips. My sister had a growth scan with her first so I wonder if I'll be similar. I read all the apps that say "your baby is 13 inches" and think

Lallypopstick · 25/03/2017 06:48

Posted too soon - think "well where is it all fitting??"

Seahawk80 · 25/03/2017 10:01

Happy weekend everyone! Not so happy for me as I'm working and feel pretty rubbish today, just tired and a bit sticky, think I've got to the point where the baby is pushing into my stomach - might be time to buy some gaviscon!

glitterglitters · 25/03/2017 10:02

@Seahawk80 nooooo 😫 Don't forget the pillows for propping up. Hope you don't need it x

Seahawk80 · 25/03/2017 10:13

Thanks @glitterglitters - I remember at Xmas being n Norfolk with my sister who was pretty much exactly where I am now combing the few shops that were open for gaviscon for her and paracetamol for me! Now I understand how she felt but at the time I was so unsympathetic due to my blinding headache!

glitterglitters · 25/03/2017 10:20

Oh god. Not fun! I'm going to stock up today just in case.

CatRash · 25/03/2017 11:27

I've been living off Gaviscon for about 3 weeks so far and am only 22+2!!! I think by the end of this pregnancy it might actually have become a food group. I have the tablets in my handbag and the Tesco equivalent liquid at home as it's a lot cheaper.

Not sure if it's something to do with my height why I've got it so quickly - I'm 5'2". I also find its worse while sitting at my desk at work - in a way a good thing as it means I keep active at the weekend!

Seahawk80 · 25/03/2017 12:19

I'm 5'1 @CatRash and my sister is v short too so you might be right. I'm now desperate for chocolate and dried fruit isn't quite cutting it!

CatRash · 25/03/2017 12:26

Could well be then. I imagine the shorter you are the less room there is in your torso area so things get squashed quicker.

I find chocolate, tomatoes, grapes and decaf tea make it a lot worse. Weirdly sparkling water seems to help. I read somewhere apples help but i haven't found that to be the case! Let me know if you come across any food/drink which help!!

glitterglitters · 25/03/2017 13:13

Eek accidentally unfollowed the thread and the app won't let me rewatch 😱

mcnics · 25/03/2017 13:14

£60 and 3 bras later and I'm now officially a DD cup for the first time in my life haha!

I think I've been getting pelvic gurdle pain, like a burning in under my pelvis/hips.. ouch!

mcnics · 25/03/2017 13:38

*girdle

Seahawk80 · 25/03/2017 14:51

@CatRash my only solution is eat little and often and nothing too rich - is like having a gastric band 😂 xx

glitterglitters · 25/03/2017 21:10

Omg I've been hit badly with a stomach bug or food poisoning. Straight out of nowhere. Bad enough but with "other" pregnancy issues and a teething toddler to look after today is NOT my day 🙈😫

TinklingTheIvories · 25/03/2017 21:31

Glitters - that's not good. Hope it's over fairly quickly and not one of those long and thin bugs. DH woke up last sat about 3am and projectiled all over the bedroom. Nice.

Hopefully you have someone to look after you :)

glitterglitters · 25/03/2017 21:38

Oh nooooo! Not fun. Sadly dh is currently out on the tiles (it's a rare occurrence) someone has also egged our house too 😭😭😭

Crap day all round.

danigrace · 25/03/2017 22:38

Oh no, hope those of you who are feeling poorly feel better fast xx

For me coconut water helps hearburn immensely, as good as the antacids. People also tild me peppermint tea but that one didn't work for me personally. The best has been slowly identifying all the foods that make it happen (any bread/pastry type stuff main culprit) and avoiding those.

We went for the chicco next-to-me, we have a nice moses basket but gave it away, would rather something seamless with the bed. Should be delivered soon Grin
