LOL@ Bewler after all that the shelves didn't stay up and fell off the wall.... I think that says it all! DH got me lovely earrings but will never get in my good books until he comes out in sickness sympathy for me!

Make sure you have excellent 30th - was mine last year and needs to be something to remember!

Harvester tonight - seem to be craving steak and strawberry ice cream - although not at the same time! Surely 7 weeks is too early to have cravings?

Many congrats star am teensy bit jealous!

Belly belts are quite good but I am going to try a bump band

Have a look at bumps bands in sale

Hi all August ladies! This is my first post on MN now I am beginning to get the lingo! I have my booking appt tomorrow and my first scan on 21st Jan - can't wait to have official confirmation and see if something is really in there as it still feels unreal to be expecting my first after trying for a year - yay! Loving MN as there are so many answers to my already huge list of questions...

I still haven't figured out what the number followed by a + and a second number means - help? Something to do with official weeks preggers and actual weeks since conception?!

neenz · 07/01/2010 20:57

Hi Flexab, welcome to MN

8+2 means 8 weeks and 2 days.

starshaker, are you working? I found the twin thing great for sympathy at work - I went down to a 4-day week but stayed on same wages, and they set up a rest room for me with a sofa in where I could go and have a sleep whenever I wanted! It is still there and I plan to use it this pg as well

So sorry about your previous losses - do you mind me asking why you are on your own?

Hope you get to centreparcs ok girlsyearapart!

aendr · 07/01/2010 21:17

I tried the Mothercare support belt, but found the velcro bit to be very uncomfortable and scratchy and I couldn't get it to overlap correctly not to scratch. I tried bump bands and loved them, and have just got them out of the vacuum bag I stored them in - hey presto, back ache much better
When I got them it was black or white, stripey blue looks really appealing!

Star - good luck to you with the twins.
I was trying to remain quiet on the twin front, but I keep having dreams about twins! With a nearly toddler already, I think twins would be a bit much so I'm hoping for a singleton (crosses fingers ).

starshaker · 07/01/2010 21:18

Im on my own cos the guy ran a mile (i have shit taste in men). Not working so dont need to worry about that. Have asked my sis if she will come stay with me for a while so that should make things easier

Doodleydoo · 07/01/2010 21:24

Am so jealous of the ladies going to St George's had dd there and it was fab, really wanted to have this one there but we have moved to Kent so impossible to do! We have just moved her and have no idea about Hospitals but have heard some dreadful things about our local one. Help!

Also had a real craving for Cornbeef hash, made it and now want to throw it all up. And the bumpband is the size to big so am pulling up my trousers and my bump band.

And I am snowed in and was going to see friends near our old house tomorrow.

Oh Poo.

Congrats on the twins though star, am very pleased for you!

tiany · 07/01/2010 21:32
  • STAR - no way, what a total plonker!! he'll be missing out!

  • Bewler & Allthe8s.. i am also in St Georges and my booking appt is this Sunday too

Trying to catch up on all the posts, i was feeling a bit worried as as had tiny trace of brownish blood in some discharge today. I am trying not to worry and will say it to Midwife on sunday..
lots of the posts on here cheered me up though!! some very funny

Hello all -I've been watching this thread since the beginning but felt it would be a jinx to add myself!
However, having now scared myself by forgetting I was pregnant yesterday, and going sledging ON MY BELLY on nothing more than dustsheet plastic (DOH) I feel that I
need to worry more about my own stupidity than jinxes?.

Does anyone know if I need to worry about that at about 9 weeks?

Anyway - here goes

Nah, UnderneaththeStream, I'm sure you'll be absolutely fine. Although you should obviously look after yourself as much as you can, I think it's later on that physical things like that are more of a risk. The baby's so tiny at the moment that it's pretty well cushioned.

Doodleydoo, whereabouts are you in Kent? I'm just wondering whether your local hospital is my local hospital...

Is anyone else getting heartburn already? I remember getting it in the last trimester with DS, but I seem to be getting it already, particularly if I eat a big meal.

Right, I'm off. WAAAYYY past my bedtime. Getting really fed up with this snow now - DS is starting to get properly bored with not being able to go anywhere, and I suspect we won't make it to toddler group tomorrow [sigh].

Aussieng · 07/01/2010 23:44

Elusive have awful heartburn. Bought first of what I expect will be many bottles of gaviscon today.

BigMutha - where did you get watermelon slices> I wants.

liahgenisuptheduff · 08/01/2010 09:16

doddly and moose what are your local hospitals?

I am a Doula in Kent, (I live here too) and it's not always as bad a peeps make out.

Well I had my first enjoyable meal for weeks last night, dh brought me home an M&S tuna salad, and it was so yummy and crunchy and fresh. Also a walnut whip. Mmm.

So tonight he's bringing a different variety. bless him, it's a while since he's been able to get it right with these stupid hormones, but that was loverly.

So who's got loads snow. I'm supposed to be going to Bromley later to do an antenatal session with a couple due soon but not sure what the roads are like. Will see if it snows again.

no school today either but def need to get out so popping round a friend's, trying to find milk here too. Anyone would think a nucleur holocaust was on it's way not a bit more snow. !!

well 7 weeks today ladies, yippee!

Made it to the gym last night, so chuffed, did a whole body pump class! was a lot better than I thought it would be. Although I was super worried when i got back as I had a tiny bit of spotting when i wiped when i got back so not sure exactly what that means (if anything) I'll just have to keep and eye out, nothing since so fingers crossed!

Sicky sicky today but sporting my bands that are helping.

star your pic is beautiful and congrats again on your twins, sorry to hear about your guy running a mile, that's rubbish! but sounds like your better off without him.

elusive yes to heartburn, not so bad this week but terrible last week, but I'm prone to it anyway. If it gets any worse you can get omeprazole from the doctors, which I'm prescribed as I get heartburn frequently, but not sure if you can take during pregancy (i'm not at the moment).

mrsZaC · 08/01/2010 09:51

Morning ladies. Boy am I glad its Friday.

tiany what a coincidence! Now I will be eyeing ladies up surrepticiously wondering if its you . If you hear a whoop of delight followed by a "see, I TOLD you it wasn't a hairball" it will probably be my DH! We are due around the same time too so I wonder if our paths will cross. How exciting

hi ladies

Glad we got a brand new thread, and hello newbies

i'm back at work today after 2 days going stir crazy stuck in house with DD....who'd ever have thought that work would be such a joy!

A bit of a personal one, but is anyone else suffering with their 'bladder'? I've had intermittent cyctis like symptons for a few weeks now...mainly a real urge to 'go' but then just can't!!

Just read through the last few pages having not been online for a few days and can completely relate to the fat thing..i am ballooning daily - and it's not baby - just can't seem to help myself from overeating rubbish..where's my willpower gone?! dreading the postbaby diet already

bouncingblueberries · 08/01/2010 11:35

Hello girls

Gosh, it's getting busy on here isn't it? So lovely to find so many others going through the same thing.

Felt rubbish yesterday afternoon - really sick and grumpy, bit no heartburn as yet thankfully.

Feeling all virtuous as have just finished making lemon curd Trying to ignore the tiny flecks of black that I suspect are the coating from the saucepan Need new pans me thinks!

Ah well, off to ikea it is then. Meatballs anyone?

I'm still eating ridiculous amounts of food, trying to stay with healthy things (lots of fruit and veg) but finding myself eating a lot of bread and pastries because they keep me full for longer. Some days I am having to eat something once an hour just to keep myself from feeling nauseous.

When I'm not eating I have a horrible taste in my mouth like sour milk, not pleasant!

Does anyone else on here suffer from IBS? I've had it since I was about 15 and I got totally au fait with what sets it off for me, but now I'm pregnant it is anyone's guess. It seems to come at me quite randomly and its really painful when I get an attack. Also not helping with the fat/bloated feelings. Still, I mustn't complain. I am keeping nausea at bay very nicely with my seabands and constant snacking and nausea was my main fear so I should be grateful!

Looking forward to 2 days off I must admit - these cold mornings are hard work!
