@TwittleBee my birthday is NYD too!

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 18:07

babyl0ve Thank you! I'll be onto those grranny squares this weekend. How apt given I'm only months away from becoming a geriatric mother! 😂

Still exciting you've got your scan, TweetleBee!

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 18:10

Thank you ForTheLoveOfDoughnuts that's really helpful. I would only do it at an NHS hospital, but in the private wing, iyswim. Will ring and ask but hoping that, once the baby is out (privately) if they need extra help they become an NHS patient. Otherwise the cost will surely be mega open-ended in some cases.

SnailorSwift · 07/11/2018 18:23

@StargazyDrifter some private antenatal clinics offer a private paediatric assessment as part of their service but if baby needed emergency medical attention they would get it via NHS!

Frazzlerock · 07/11/2018 18:23

Oh bollocks. I swear my little symptoms have gone.
I keep prodding my boobs and they almost feel normal. No subtle nausea today at all. Still mega thirsty but that's not enough to convince me all is well. FFS. This is horrible.
Please baby, we can do this... 🙏🏼

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 18:35

Ow Frazzle. Symptoms do come and go. But you know that. Thinking of you and sending huuuuuge hugs (enough to make your boobies hurt again).

Very helpful on the NHS, that's put my mind at rest a bit! Thank you!

Holly5633 · 07/11/2018 18:35

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 18:36

PS Frazzle have you tried poking your boobies round the side as well as in the cleavage area? Sounds insane but I spent two days thinking I'd lost the boobies symptom but it just moved to the sides.

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 18:40

Holly that's awfully sad. Very sorry indeed and how horribly unfair. Go gently, it takes time, do all the things you need to do. 💐💐💐

Frazzlerock · 07/11/2018 18:43

@Holly5633 I am so so sorry for you lovely. Please look after yourself xx

Laburna · 07/11/2018 18:43

@frazzlerock I'm having a similar day to be honest :(

@holly5633 I'm so sorry for your loss, it's so hard and nobody deserves it. Please look after yourself. Fingers crossed for future success. (I know it doesn't help right now, but please believe that this isn't your doing, in the first trimester it's almost certainly a problem with the baby not developing, and when the right one comes along it will stick in there!)

SnailorSwift · 07/11/2018 18:45

@Holly5633 so sorry to hear this. Be gentle with yourself lovely and make sure you are well looked after 💕

Frazzlerock · 07/11/2018 18:46

@StargazyDrifter I know... god this time is such a worry isnt it.
I only have small boobs so there's not much to prod. The only discomfort I had was right in the centre, like bruises.

Why is this so god damned hard! This should be such s joyous time. MC robs you of joy 😓

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 18:50

We'll take centre bruise pain as a symptom! I know, MC is a horrid, horrid thing that's kind of like a lingering parasite. ☹️

Frazzlerock · 07/11/2018 18:53

@StargazyDrifter it's the centre bruise pain that is fading. In fact I'm sure it's gone.

I know I'm being irrational.
What are our chants?

This is a different pregnancy
I am pregnant today

Do we have anymore?

StargazyDrifter · 07/11/2018 19:01

Laburna's one - we don't worry about things twice.

Frazzlerock · 07/11/2018 19:04

Oh yes 🙌🏻

SnailorSwift · 07/11/2018 19:07

@Frazzlerock I work part time as a reiki practitioner and meditation coach - positive affirmations are my jam 👌🏻💕

One of my favourites:

I am the most important person in my baby's world. How I feel matters and I CHOOSE to feel SAFE 💕

Laburna · 07/11/2018 19:11

I've jinxed myself by buying a pair of stretchy waist jeans off eBay. I figure they'll get me through until the sales start. I didn't think I was that bloated but my jeans are getting so uncomfortable!

HchyScott · 07/11/2018 19:43

@Holly5633 so sorry to hear your news, sending huge hugs and love your way, take care of yourself Flowers

ratherbeshowjumping · 07/11/2018 20:09

Just had a complete & utter meltdown at DH. He's still off work sick (fine) but has been sat on the sofa playing his PlayStation & making calls about a new car (he got a brand new Range Rover about 6 months ago but someone at work has been "teasing" him that it's a girly colour - absolutely pathetic - so wants to swap it). He's literally sat & watched me sort out all the animals in the rain, work nonstop from 8-6.30, then back to sorting animals. Work is manic & I genuinely didn't get time to even make myself a drink. When I did get a spare 10 mins, I made him breakfast, lunch, got him tablets, sorted out the clean washing, put a wash on, emptied dish washer, reloaded, emptied bin.
I back in at 7.15, he asked if I wanted a Chinese. I said no, I'd got salmon out the freezer to have with fresh veg... no offer to help prepare whilst I had a shower, SAT DOWN, nothing.
I made dinner then he made a comment about how I was "off" - I completely lost it.
Really don't know if it's hormones or if I'm being a complete psycho at the moment but I don't think I've ever felt so isolated, so tired & so down. This is meant to be the happiest time & instead I'm running myself into the ground. DH said that everything I'm doing is a choice & I can choose not to do it - it's not a choice to look after pets or make sure the house is clean & tidy enough to live in. I know I'm only feeling the brunt of this because I'm nauseous & exhausted but really just don't know what to do at the moment ☹️

ratherbeshowjumping · 07/11/2018 20:10

Sorry for the huge rant, needed to get it off my chest somehow 🙈

Frazzlerock · 07/11/2018 20:19

@ratherbeshowjumping I think you were totally right to have it out with him.
You need to be resting in these early stages as much as possible.

Your DH HAS to pull his finger out immediately. He should be running around after you and making sure you're okay.

Arrgghh how infuriating for you 😓

Onestep2 · 07/11/2018 20:21

Haha your rant is justified!!! And I totally get you, it's not difficult for them to even offer to help!!!

I had similar with my DH came in at 7pm from a 11 hour day and he was sitting on couch playing fifa, no dishes done, no washings, not a finger had been lifted since he got home at 3pm. Then he asked what was for dinner, I said I wasn't hungry. N he said but I am hungry so you need to make something, then said that his work jeans needed washed for tomorrow and hed put them in basket for me.

Lost it. Started shouting about state of house how he'd been home for hours, done nothing but played his stupid computer and how I was his wife and not his fucking mum and to do his own washing and feed himself, slammed the door and stormed off upstairs.

Men just don't get it. Lol

To be fair i regret it now coz I'm hungry and out of pure principle am not going to make something. Stubborn much? Hahaha
