Due April 2008 - new thread for October

[lemonaid]

Old thread here.

That must be it. Mine are huge now

mine are now massive, dread to think how saggy they will be afterwards

incredibly itchy legs here too - at the front on the shins ... sometimes I could scratch until all the skin has gone

Why is that?

boobs or belly not itchy though - so I shall quit moaning

i think it kind of pees him off actually as its normally followed by... 'now can u do my back.. no, not there (fidget fidget)' he loves it i tell you

i'm not a particularly sexy wife lately!!!!

what on earth is going on with MN? it's all woeird and I have to look for the platest posts... yuk!
Had the bubbly feleing eysterday.... not quite like washing up though...but felt bubbles and tohught....oooo, this is what those girls were talking about.
I also had this woerd senstaion today like someone was poking me with a blunt needle (like a knitting one) inside the tummy...

id this to me earlier, and has gone back again, I assume tech is playing.

Ooooh poking you say??? get dh/p to lay his head on your tummy and see if you feel it move out the way!!

Click on "customize talk board" up at the top...

Morning All, hope all those itchy Boobs are under control today . just think its friday and only 7 hours till the end of the working week....... not that I'm counting

oh i don't like change . i've got it all fixed aback to normal now. i got very very confused with what was going on!!!

yay hey its fri though!

does anyone else feel like they are really snapping at people for no reason?

not too snappy today, but last night my DP and kittens got a good dose of it. Must try harder

What happened to the thread! I got all confused and unhappy but have sorted it now

Oh and my boobs get really itchy too, I'm glad it's not just me.

Hours of fun

i like those new smilies!!! will we get xmas ones tooo i wonder??? wooohoooo

Yes, they have Christmas smilies with Santa hats...

Probably not...

Hi everyone - Friday!!!
Thanks lemonaid for tip on how to get the thread back to normal.
I've just had a Drs appointment and heard heart beat very clearly, which was more exciting than I thought it would be. Last night was starting to panic with DH horribly about how we are going to cope, but heartbeat has made it seems a bit better!

Ah that's nice sagitta - I had my consultant appt yesterday and was lovely hearing little hearbeat going.

thanks for the tip demonaid was v confused with that screen, not that it takes v much with pregnant brain, in fact normal brain as well

this really confused me-easily done at the moment me thinks!

i went to pg yoga on tuesday-felt the best i have done in absolutely ages.

How is everyone? i am having a quiet day at home, having done a mountain of ironing already!

Hmmmmm, don't like this new layout. Despite trying to customise my talk board and choosing to be a miserable, stuck-in-the past old bint, it doesn't seem to save my changes (despite clicking "save"), so next time I open the internet, I am stuck back at the beginning of the thread

Can I ask a question, to either the done-it-all-before ladies or the more-knowledgable-than-me newbies? What position am I allowed to sleep in? Can I still sleep on my back? If it's comfy (which incredibly, it occasionally is), can I lie on my front, or will that hurt the baby? I'm 15 weeks today, if that's relevant. And I read somewhere that lying on your left side is better for you than lying on your right (when pg) - does it really matter?

I'm finding it hard enough to sleep right now, all these restrictions just make it harder, and I don't want to be making life harder for myself than I need to!!

Many thanks

Scorpio, you sound very efficient!

Meant to say yesterday that for itchy legs, rashes, etc, Trilogy Everything Balm is good. I got it from hqhair.com.

Have a good weekend.

Toastaddict you can sleep how you want, it wont affect the baby.

sleep how you like at the mo, although later on try to lie on your left side as the baby wont squash the veins providing the nourishment, etc. but thats not until like 30 ish weeks. i cant lie on my back, feels too heavy!

smcg-ds1 teacher this week said to me 'you always appear so unflappable'. i do flap on the inside, i promise!

Toastaddict - def sleep however is comfy! There was a phase a few years ago of advising not to sleep on your back further on in the preg due to baby squashing your blood supply but decided its negligable and not relevant in maj cases so fill your boots.
The left side to right side thing is to do with assisting blood flow in and out of heart - if blood pressure drops they advise to lay on the left.

ooh and i thought of a girls name we like - Teagan. like? Think we are having Blake William for a boy.

If it's comfortable you can sleep how you like. As you go on sleeping on your back can be iffy (as a result of pressure on blood vessels) as can sleeping on your front (as a result of pressure on uterus) but it will get uncomfortable long, long before you reach the point where it could theoretically be dangerous.
