Due in Fab Feb 2009

[Davidsmom]

Hi

Couldn't see a Feb thread so thought I would start one as am so excited to get a faint but definately positive HPT.

Fertility friend estimates a due date of 4th Feb.

Unfortunately (or fortunately)am off this afternoon for a hen weekend in Barcelona the first holiday in at least a year and a half and can't drink. Ohh well will have to be the responsible adult..... Hence checking to see if up the duff before I went drowning myself in Sangria.

Hope to see some others on here when I get back!!! If anyone cares to join me?

Davidsmom - I have also been quite hot and bothered. I seem to have much less patience - especially at work. Even got a bit stroppy with my boss today which have never done before...hormones I guess although have always been a bit in the past of pregnant women who seem to treat their pregnancy as an excuse to behave however they like. I should probably remind myself of that the next time I am about to go into a meltdown over something trivial! Am also quite weepy, I was talking with a friend today about how I felt the day I returned to work after having DD and I was nearly in tears. Ridiculous as that was 9 months ago.

Hi someone else up Yaaaaay

How old is your DD guitargirl?

My DS has been a real pain the last few nights and not slept until 9-930. Usually goes off at around 7.30. Unfortunately he gets up several times during the night though.

I know this is def TMI but has anyone else had a funny tummy (the runs!!!)

DD is 17 months, she started sleeping all night about a month ago but still not every night. She usually goes to sleep between 8 and 8:30 and will sleep till about 6 when I take her into bed with us. But really up until a month ago she was still waking several times a night - knackering so I sympathise!

Glad you said that GG- been feeling quite Err "sensitive" and a bit weepy the last few days.

Getting quite annoyed with DH over trivial things and generally feeling a bit down.

Perhaps the excitement has worn off, hormones kicked in and realise there is around another 8 months to go!! assuming I even get there...see pessimistic.

Went back to work on Monday and today did a countdown until when I could start back on maternity leave. How sad is that

Oh my goodness GG- you beat me on the sleepless nights DS is only 12 months.

RMM- yes I have a bit of a sensitive tummy anyway but one of the things I have had in both PG is a "funny tummy"

i thought that was the nice way to put it! I'm glad its not just me. I'm now dreading going to sleep because I know I'll be shattered when I wake up, skewed logic I know!

Oh am definitely ready for another maternity leave! It's difficult to concentrate at work as everything seems a bit irrelevant at the moment.

ruthmollymummy - haven't noticed anything this time but definitely when I was expecting DD, seem to remember it was like that for about first 6-8 weeks. Am not sure if that's a typical symptom but definitely remember it from last time. It's weird as I keep remembering stuff from my pregnancy last time that I'd forgotten - like I had bleeding gums from second trimester onwards and in the last trimester I used to dribble during the night (nice!), would wake up with a wet pillow!

Yes I get to a point when if I'm up late I feel another hour or so wont make much difference!

Really want something to eat but cant work out what.....Not hungry though.

Have just had some garlic bread which was very nice!

Hey I think I dribbled too! Nice...

Not sure about garlic bread- feeling quite acidy- Gaviscon didnt work.

Suppose I could have some milk but it just isnt what I want.......

davidsmom - i thought you were drooling because of GG's garlic bread then I read up a bit!! but mmm garlic bread

GG you are responsible for the fridge raid thats about to happen!

I got pregnant about 6 weeks into a new job last time (just in time to get mat pay)Then worked til 37 weeks, took 12 months mat leave and am now 6 weeks Pg and the first week back at work....They will love me when I tell them about DC2!

My work don't know - I'm off sick still because of PND and my lovely GP will gladly keep me going till mat leave starts - haha - it's only a Sky call centre. they dont care about us minions.

Trying to think about something else but food.

Was fridge raiding but really nothing in there. Havent felt up to a shop recently so living from freezer and only have self to blame

Drinking milk but not satisfying

I feel your pain Davidsmom - I too have an empty fridge because of own laziness/pregnancy related tiredness!!!

not even any crisps.

or biscuits

i have a bar of galaxy i dont want if you'd like me to chuck it really hard out the window in your direction?

Sorry to hear about your PND RMM.

Glad you have a sympathetic GP.

OOhh maybe could have some virtual Chocolate.

Virtually unwraps bar seductively like in the adverts(while of course not looking fat and wearing old BF nightie ) nibbles on first chunk delicately....then gobbles the lot.

Smacks lips...Yummmy.

I'm feeling really good again, kinda back to normal with the help of lovely DH, great GP and a little bit of prozac! Really excited about a second chance at pregnancy and especially birth. [crosses fingers for easy, short, non-complicated labour and delivery.......]

Hmmm - galaxy, could do with some minstrels...

Just seen the time- suppose I better go and try to get some sleep before DS kicks off. He always waits til I have just got comfy and warm then starts....how do they know?

Glad your good now- was it a traumatic birth that set things off? Sorry cant remember if youve posted on prev birth yet.

Minstrels.......
