edidxb So sorry to hear you're poorly, that's horrid. I suspect any kind of challenge like illness or stress is harder in pregnancy. I had a hard day at work last week, nothing out of the ordinary and we do occasionally get those kind of 'go, go, go' moments where I am, but it was so much harder to deal with somehow. Be gentle with yourself. 💐
edidxb and Squ1ggle Definiteky interesting how far we rely on alcohol as a treat or a bond in social/family situations. Lunch today is again going to be difficult to navigate!
At least of my MIL did twig it she will hopefully do it with that very endearing and slightly panto-esque secrecy she puts on around Christmas.
TwinkleDay Hopefully that was just a well-intentioned comment executed badly. That said, that would also play on my mind. Last time I was pregnant I told my best friend early and asked not to tell his (slightly spiky) partner yet, until 12 wks etc. They're a slightly odd pair in that they don't share that much stuff somehow. He clearly had though, because when they both came for Christmas drinks one of my gifts was very lovely tea and the partner said 'well not like you can drink it now anyway'. When I asked what that meant he tried to tow back and said about me being on a health kick. It was all a bit silly. I always think that, if people guess, they should be polite enough to not discuss until the person concerned is comfortable with it. But again early pregnancy makes me a bit grumpy!
Frazzle How interesting about that calculator! Keep us posted!
Right. Off for a morning stroll with DH before the nausea and/or rain catch up with us! 😂
