Foxy, if you tell me your chocolatey snacks from M&S were belgian chocolate covered raspberries and strawberries I might cry with envy!

DaisysGotSausageFeet · 29/05/2007 20:33

What happens if you take more than the recommended dose of raspberry leaf? Can you take the tablets and the tea at the same time?

...and what, Foxy, is caulphyllum 200 and can I use clary sage as of now?

not that I want this LO out or anything!

foxybrown · 29/05/2007 20:33

Nothing so exotic, I'm afraid bumper! Two variety packs of chocolate biscuits, wafers, teacakes, that kind of thing. Yum!

ROFL Daisy - you should change your name to DesparateDaisy xx

Caulphyllium is a homeopathic remedy. My first MW (way back when!) recommended Caulphyllium 30, and start to take it at week 38. DS1 did come on time BTW!

Can't remember if I took it last time, but I still have the same bottle in the cupboard!

According to the blurb I got with my new birthing kit, its to keep contractions going if they slow down.

Oh, now I need M&S choccy! I've been really good today, had chicken salad for lunch then grilled chicken kebabs with veg for dinner, with lots of fruit in between (and no coco pops) now I just want chocolate! I am so worried about being fat after the baby is born, and worried that I won't be able to snap out of these bad eating habits. What hope is there if I can't even go 1 day without chocolate or icecream (mmm, yesterday it was a caramel mcflurry, day before a whole tub of Haagen Daz).

and you can be DesperateDerlor...

I have to say Bumper that I put on all my weight after having each one. Being knackered, sat on my arse breastfeeding, reaching for cake and sugar to keep me going, meant I piled on a couple of stone after the baby was born. Am very conscious of it this time as its the last baby so no more excuses, so I've kept my gym membership going and will be at Weightwatchers as soon as the autumn term starts in September!

Am such a saddo! Could just buy control knickers instead!

DesperateDerlor · 29/05/2007 20:43

laaalaaa

foxybrown · 29/05/2007 20:44

Anyone else watching How to Look Good Naked?!

DesperateDerlor · 29/05/2007 20:44

could just wire your jaw shut Foxy - much easier than the gym!!!

DaisysGotSausageFeet · 29/05/2007 20:45

I'll need the control knickers regardless.....I'm a bit worried about what my existing c-section "hang over" will look like after another c-section. DH kind of gets it that it will bother me (after me bawling my eyes out over it for two hours at the weekend).......and has said I can have a tummy tuck for my 40th birthday!!

DaisysGotSausageFeet · 29/05/2007 20:45

....suits you sir!!

DesperateDerlor · 29/05/2007 20:47

cool, a tummy tuck - you can eat all the cake you want then!!!

hollyandalice · 29/05/2007 20:48

Figleaves sale. Still a bit pricey for me, but thought someone might be interested!

I'm with you foxy on the weight watchers front! I shall be a fully paid up member asap! I'm fed up being fat! You get extra points if you are bfing! Bonus!

foxybrown · 29/05/2007 20:48

how would I scream at my children if I wired my jaw shut?!

hollyandalice · 29/05/2007 20:49

I'd love a tummy tuck, they can cut off all my stretchmarks at the same time! I'd gladly be fat for the rest of my life if I had no stretchmarks! I hate them!

bumperlicious · 29/05/2007 20:50

DH is very against boob jobs so I compromised and said he had to let me spend a fortune on expensive bras instead should the need arise (it undoubtably will)!

foxybrown · 29/05/2007 20:50

I'd have a boob lift - if they didn't slice your nipples off and re-allocate them!

hollyandalice · 29/05/2007 20:51

at the nipples being sliced off!!

foxybrown · 29/05/2007 20:52

30 points at WW for bf! Yea!

hollyandalice · 29/05/2007 20:53

Sweet, surely that's a few glasses of wine, or are you supposed to use the extra points for nourishment??

DaisysGotSausageFeet · 29/05/2007 20:54

My SIL has one DC and is 25 wks pg with twins (and looks s big as me at 38 wks) and has NO Stretchmarks. There's just no bloody justice in the world.

My mum had four of us and didn't get any either so, ya bollocks to all that genetic tendency crap

foxybrown · 29/05/2007 20:54

It doesn't matter - that's the beauty of weighwatchers! cake or wine, as long as you don't go over 30 points.

hollyandalice · 29/05/2007 20:55

My mum has none either daisy, the witch!
