Due in June 2008: bring on the bumps! (and that's before Christmas meals!)

[aberdeenhiker]

The last message I posted seems to have filled up the old thread so I thought I'd start a new one.

Since bump size was our last topic, I thought this might do for a thread title.

hi everyone just popping in will catch up properly later.

spent half of last night in A&E as my stupid DH fell off a ladder, his arm is out like a balloon but lucky not broken.

We spent the afternoon at the castle where we temp stayed before moving into our new house, as they put a live nativity play on in the court yard with a camel DD was very cute and cuddled santa, though his elf (who new my DS) has caused grief as he now wants a nintendo ds

I am huge had to go into maternity look 5 months gone at least more so at night, and im eating like a horse infact i would eat a scabby one if it had a sauce.

Was sick again today though which devistated me.

Anyway im starving and have to have
daily butter on toast

sorry havent read all posts so hope all is well xx

Morning All,

Glad everyone seems to have had nice weekend, we spent it shopping (yawn) and fighting over which furniture to buy for the living room.

I'm glad there are others having the same skiing debate as we are. We are meant to be skiing in Switzerland in January, however my DP is v. paranoid about me doing anything, but his parents (who are paying for us to ski) seem to think it will be fine. I think I will give it a go, and stop if I find it too much for me. I have only been skiing twice, but am fairly confident at not falling too much, however, as you said, you can't account for others crashing into you!

I still have no appetite at all, so am not eating much - if anything I am forcing myself to eat. The nausea has gone, but I still don't feel like eating anything... which is disappointing, as there is so much lovely food around at the moment!

Ive lost my baby, ive had a missed miscarriage at the weekend. I wish everyone on the June thread all the best of luck with the rest of their pregnancies xx

3rd on theway - I am so sorry to hear your news, I can't imagine how you must feel at this stage, and I don't know what to say to make it any better so I'll send you some [hugs] and thanks for coming back to tell us.

Take care

3rdontheway, I am so sorry to hear your news, I am sorry but I son't know what else to say.

3rdontheway - I'm so sorry. How awful for you, and what dreadful timing, just before Christmas. I lost a baby at 19 weeks - it is particularly cruel to lose a baby when you think the most risky period is over. Sending you all my love and sympathy.

I'm so sorry 3rdontheway

I was 13 weeks pregnant but hadnt had my scan yet ( supposed to be this Wednesday). but after bleeding and scan at the Hospital it showed my babys heart had stopped beating between 8 and 9 weeks. Which is 4 or 5 weeks ago i just wish i had an earlier scan and i would have known this sooner Ive wrote about it on the pregnancy thread. So sorry to hear of your loss at 19 weeks Rolf Its just completely traumatising and i dont know how i would have coped if it had been another ten weeks on.

You poor love. It's not fair is it - to have gone 3 months with the hope of a baby. And I imagine the physical experience, let alone the emotional one, must be horrible.

3rdontheway, I'm so sorry. I wish there were words to make it better, but know from my mc that there simply aren't. Take care of yourself and good luck for the future.

3rdontheway-I am so sorryxxx

3rdontheway so sorry, I had read you pregnancy thread last week and was hoping everything would work out ok for you, take care lots of hugs and luv xx

3rdontheway - i'm so sorry

this is all of our worst ngithmare; please be assured that our thoughts/prayers are with you at this time.

I am so dim! On thursday DD1 had about four spots above her lip which I thought was a reaction to her face paint as she had had some for the school play for a few days before that or a collection of coldsores. On friday she had a huge one on her cheek which I thought was an insect bite. Just today I was looking at her in the bath and it was almost as if a lightbulb came on in my head - she's got a really mild case of chicken pox! It really didn't occur to me as she has had it before, when she had it the first time I realised what it was when I saw the first spot on her forehead. She has been really grumpy for a few days but I put it down to end of term tiredness and christmas excitment. Nothing I can do about it now though!

3rdontheway I can only echo what everyone else has said. I'm so, so sorry to hear your news. Hope you are being surrounded by lots of love and support and that little number 3 will come for you soon. Big Hug

Really sorry 3rdontheway so hard for it to happen at this stage and such a difficult time of year too, I hope you have understanding people around to look after you.

Thanks for the messages im feeling a bit better today. Im just going to enjoy xmas with Dh and the kids and maybe think about trying again next year. On Sunday before i got the D and C i didnt think i would think of babies again for a long time but im going to see what happens. Im also going to get my rubella status checked i dont think it was anything to do with that but im better knowing anyway. Im glad everyone is doing well and the next thing will be the 20 week scans. Good luck everyone, ill leave this thread and maybe with some luck ill be on another one next year.

On another note...
There is a guy who sits opposite me at work who's been inhaling massive quantities of Olbas oil the last few days and it's making me flappy.
I had thought Olbas oil was okay, but I recently read the ingredients and it's got some essential oils you're supposed to avoid in pg - juniperberry and rosemary for a start.
Consequently I'm sitting here breathing the fumes in and really worrying. I haven't told work yet, and with less than a day until a massive deadline, now's not the time to be dropping bombshells.
Am I worrying unecessarily? Is Olbas oil okay after all? I've tried searching other threads on MN but the search engine is so crap it meands trawling through dozens of pages.
