pandora You're needed here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/pregnancy/947242-Has-anyone-flown-long-haul-in-first-trimester due to an explosion of asshats. Planes killz baybeez.

rots alas you're right, I'm not a dainty sneezer.

Back from the docs - apparently it's a "virus" although he did offer to aspirate the cyst on my tonsil. I declined as I was already gagging on the spatula holding my tongue down - I didn't think I'd fair well when he got his aspirator in my mouth.

Went out for lunch and breathed, coughed, sneezed & blew my nose over literally fahsands of people. Also tried to go handbag shopping and failed. How fucking hard can it be? Picked up 3 maternity tops and then just bunged them on a hanger and walked home. What has become of me? I can't shop.

Had a small row with jailbait last night and have demanded that he plug back in my DVD player which I quite happily used for 6 years before he rolled up. We now watch DVDs using an XBox and I just cannot get to grips with it. I want a remote control with plays/pauses/stops. I do not wish to have to read a fucking manual to use a two-handed play thingummy wotsit but I want to watch (or might want to) a DVD at 4am when I'm pacing the hallways.

ski you'd hate it here then, we have a total of 8 remote controls for our AV set up, and to turn any one thing on requires a combined usage of at least 3 of them with various complex button press synchronisation!

I just had some good news, got my early scan booked in for next Thursday and am well excited if not a bit "well, that's gonna bring it home to reality one way or the other". I'm really chuffed I went for it and got it arranged, I feel ever so excited now, even if I do want to wretch all over the laptop as I type this! On the vomit note, I just got some of those nausea wrist band things in the vague hope it will take the edge of the nausea. You know, I wouldn't mind if I actually threw up, that'd be productive and helpful for weight issues, but instead I just sit here constantly feeling like I'm about to throw up, but never coming up with the goods.

maybe the giant chocolate muffin I just bought will bring things to a head...

rollerbaby · 15/04/2010 15:30

Okie emailed you - hope address was right so let me know if you don't get.

Pony I'm sure is all totally normal and just feels like he's trying to break out. Can't even imagine what that feels like. I am mainly concerned with keeping boobage under control at the moment.

Amused my remote control chat. It turns out that PS3 players can also be used for other things apart from Abba SingStar... even the internet. How modern.

Ponymum · 15/04/2010 16:45

ski Your demands re electronic shizz are completely reasonable.

Sorry you can't shop. Apparently I can't either. I had carefully selected loads of things on the JojoMaman website, and done the same thing on Uniqlo. Then I had a long skype call with my sister and when I clicked back both of my shopping baskets were empty! Now I'll never remember what important stuff I had carefully selected and why. Too tired to start again... I give up.

carrotsarenottheonlyvegetable · 15/04/2010 16:54

pony I forgot you were a bit on from us. All will be fine (platitude I know but I've not time for more - rubbish aren't I). I personally think that lounging will make pelvic pressure worse, only going on personal experience where when I was getting pelvic pain (and it's tiny compared to you and that was awful) sitting on the ball or leaning on it helped, also crawling (see slow July thread for detailed explaination) whereas lying on sofa made me really stiff and sore. I can't think that having baby in a better position with weight towards the front would be anything but good for your pelvis.

ski agree re remotes.

reg brilliant re scan! I also had no throwing up but lots of nausea. Dunno which is worse but then upchucking in the middle of somewhere is never good.

foetal positioning FYI all, mentions birthing ball. So cunty I sits on my ball to watch telly (I happen to find it comfy but obv not all do, but it may be it's not the right size if it's not comfy), and lean over it - alternating between the two. I didn't use one in labour much as I was whisked in without it but I gently bouncing on it was, as I think ok mentioned, really niiiice to relieve pelvic pressure in early labour. Would have liked it later too. So it's great for OFP and also labour.

skihorse · 15/04/2010 17:05

jailbait is just about off down the shops but can't remember the list, AIBU for having chanted "milk, milk, lemonade, strawberry, chocolate brazil nuts" whilst pointing at various parts of my anatomy? (It is in fact the list.)

reggie Good news about the scan, but don't be surprised if you don't sleep well next wednesday night - totally normal. Also make sure your bladder is good and full. The nausea I have found far, far more debilitating than the actual puking. The having to lie down, having to sit down, having to remain motionless and waiting for death can be "draining" to say the very least.

rots I was of course referring to you - you mad stalker woman!

pony Isn't cunty due just a week or two after you? So there are two of you there. I too hope cheggers is fine, perhaps she just has her hands full right now. Btw, I think your husband is bloody mental for wanting to drag you all away for 3 months - now I know having children should not really impede your life/style (within limits!) - but it's going to take some time for you to fully recover from the SPD, he needs a slap.

I R 29+3 if that helps. But I shan't be doing any birthing till the beginning of July

Ponymum · 15/04/2010 17:28

cunty I is 31+3, so yes, 2 weeks! Please tell me you are just as fat and uncomfortable as I am. (Tell lies if you need to.)

skihorse · 15/04/2010 17:31

cunty isn't fat - she's a glamorous wisp, like a willow blowing elegantly by the river...

I am getting seriously mithered with mn - how the fuck do some people get so damned stupid - or entitled? I will never, ever, ever understand those who are "too good" to get off their fucking arses and get a job - no matter how shit.

OP posts:
CUNextTuesday · 15/04/2010 17:40

I am definitely uncomfortable - everything is accompanied by an 'ooof' or an 'hurrrr', my left hip is almost laughably painful and I walk like a penguin

In point of fact I am actually narrower than I was pre-preg. I'll never be skinny, and my arse is spreading to meet my ankles because of not being able to get out for regular walks, but I eat much less that I did before for reasons that are unknown so I haven't really put any non-baby weight on. This may change in the next few weeks though....

I'm quite excited that we might be confined within days of each other. Birth partners

Ponymum · 15/04/2010 17:42

ski You are supposed to tell lies to make me feel better about my increasing hippopotamus resemblance, not contrast my state with wispy, willowy waifs.

Are you wading into areas of MN where it's best not to go? Step away. Or if you're not strong enough, learn how to hide threads so they can't ever bother you again.

Ponymum · 15/04/2010 17:45

cunty You might need to plan on being about 3 weeks early, as if they do a c-s on me it will be at 39 weeks. Can you organise that OK?

skihorse · 15/04/2010 17:48

pony I haz strayed. I will hide people who are not P/BESH material - it's safest that way. Srsly - I can haz trainers which kilt my baybee? I bet you're not a hippo anyway you fibber.

CUNextTuesday · 15/04/2010 17:57

Yeah I bet she isn't neither

CurlyCasper · 15/04/2010 18:55

Today my belly is mostly square Pic on profile.

Maternity cover arrangements sorted
Found out good friend and wonderful person is 12 weeks diffed

A good day methinks.

Very excited about prospect of ponycunt combined confinement. (love that word, inappropriate as it is these days!)

Ponymum · 15/04/2010 19:18

curls At first I thought you meant that ponycunt was an inappropriate word. Being PESHes I knew that couldn't be right so I read your post again. Yes you're right, that's a much more shocking word.

I really is hippo-ish! I have overnight turned into the lumbering giant I have been known to mock. Karma, I suppose.

rollerbaby · 15/04/2010 20:12

Curly I love the pictures of your baybee! I've only got pictures of a blob so far. I wonder if they give everyone the same photos and it's all bit a ruse.

Cried a bit in mamas and papas today looking at ickle baby furry fleece suits for newborns. Then got quite annoyed with fecking useless underwear assistant who was no use to man or beast and only seemed interested in my preggy symptoms. I just need a comfy bra how hard can it be?!

pandora69 · 15/04/2010 20:18

Hello everyone, too tired to say more than that.

Stupid stupid mother handed me a DD yelping and whimpering with exhaustion as I set foot in the door home from work (which you might guess was a little hectic today,) with the words 'I haven't fed her yet.' I got home past her bedtime - no wonder she was whimpering! Stupid mother has also managed to get my sister reported to the police for stalking - which in essence seems to be exactly what they have been up to, but seem to be too thick to realise! I can believe we are even related.

Reggie You off to Beard Mill then for your scan?

BTW I like the word ponycunt. I am sure I can think of some ways to use it.

Right Ski, thanks for the lead. Off to vent some of my ire over on some thickies who think it is impossible to even look at an aeroplane and safely have a child. If that's the case, how the fuck am I onto number 2? Of course, the first one glows a bit, on account of me flying round for the first 4 weeks of my last pregnancy on that plane that had the radioactive spy on who died - do you remember that?

pandora69 · 15/04/2010 20:21

BTW Ski - "milk, milk, lemonade, strawberry, chocolate brazil nuts" Snort!

pandora69 · 15/04/2010 20:40

OK Ski, back from that thread. Check out my answer. Is is restrained enough? Bit late now, I can't take it back. It was fabulously therapeutic, btw

OkieCokie · 15/04/2010 20:40

Mouth ulcer and manky gums update, apparetnly it is all because I am diffed, at least it is nothing more sinister. Think I may watch the Big Election Debate as I am one of the many millions that still doesn't know what to do..

rollerbaby · 15/04/2010 20:49

Question for the panel. I'm having my 12 week scan tomorrow and they are taking my blood too. Do they give you a probability statistic after the scan? Or once they have blood result?

Feeling nervous peshies, need a steadying gin.

CurlyCasper · 15/04/2010 20:55

I didn't have nuchal at 12 weeks (or at all) so had to wait till blood test. sorry I can't help you moo panda I think that was very restrained. well done!

ponypotaumus I'm sure you feel bigger than you actually are. At least it'll be over soon and you'll have a lovely wee boy (and hopefully hips that work asap after he is evicted)

Election debate on in the background. Can anyone sit through one and a half hours of this? Surely bitesize chunks would make this more accessible to the general public? Boring people is hardly going to solve the apathy problem... (mine you SFF seems to be enjoying shouting at them all)

OkieCokie · 15/04/2010 20:56

Honey I can answer that. You will have to wait for the blood results so likely to have to wait a couple of days. You would have got results tomorrow if you had bloods done prior. Bet G Brown and D Cameron couldn't have answered that!
