I've put my EDD on. Feeling vaguely sick but STARVING, remember this from last time.

smallblackflowers · 03/06/2010 08:29

Morning all, I seem to have disappeared from the stats list, so adding myself back on!

TheBreastmilksonme I am also still bf my DD, but haven't had any discomfort at all (yet), I have had to cut down to 1 or 2 feeds per day in order to get my fertility back.

I have also added the age of my DD and my age to the stats list - I hope no one minds (feel free to do the same if you fancy)

SemperEadem · 03/06/2010 10:30

Debka - I am starving too. In fact, that was my first symptom. The sort of hunger that just doesn't go away no matter what you eat!

I fully embraced it last time (thats why I am still 10lb heavier, 3 years after having DS [GRIN]

May try and not use it as an excuse to stuff my face this time!

debka · 03/06/2010 10:59

It's weird isn't it SemperEadem, feel really sick, then hungry, then eat, still feel hungry, eat some more, stop eating, wait a bit, feel sick again, etc etc. Last time I lost my appetite half way through, hope that kicks in again!

I gave up bfing DD (14mo) on the day I conceived this one. Poor titties, no rest...

KnitterNotTwitter · 03/06/2010 11:24

RE: BF - I was planning to still be BF my DS but three days in hospital for the ectopic put paid to that :-( My fertility had come back ok once we were down to 2ish feeds a night (DS day-weaned of his own accord at 11 mo) It took me 6 months to get pregnant with the ectopic - and I do wonder if the fact I was still BFing was why it took that long... Mind you DS was 19 months when I had the ectopic so he'd had a good run at 'em...!

I've added DS and my ages

I've had headaches the last two days - must drink more water. Not overly hungry but do seem to be off chocolate still!

smallblackflowers · 04/06/2010 09:41

Morning all

I am HUNGRY today, and the bf is starting to get a bit sore too.

Ooh. have also noticed that there is another feb thread on the go.

Hope you are all well today and enjoying the sunshine.

KnitterNotTwitter · 04/06/2010 09:55

Morning ladies

smallblackflowers which is the other Feb thread? I can see a 'late Jan' thread but not another feb one - can you post a link?

Doing well today - decided to try and make some progress on my sister's cardigan that I'm knitting as she's looked after my DS for the week this week as the childminder is away.

My appetite is a bit weird - feel hungry but when I actually have it on my plate in front of me I'm not actually that mad keen on eating....

smallblackflowers · 04/06/2010 12:49

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/pregnancy/974431-February-2011-babies

Here is the other thread - it's on the pregnancy board, not the ante-natal board.

Just call me sbf as the whole shebang takes a bit of typing!

cler · 04/06/2010 13:53

I was feeling sick last week and had loads of cramping but i dont anymore, is it normal for it to disapear? Hows everyone feeling today?

TheBreastmilksOnMe · 04/06/2010 21:55

HI all I've just come back off my olidays so had a bit of catching up to do. I have mentioned to the ladies on the other thread as we started this one before the other one and these threads are usually in antenatal so I have asked them to come over because it wouldn't make sense to have 2 different groups would it? The more the merrier!

GinaFB I'm great thanks, how are you? Feeling great after a relaxing holiday and thankfully MS hasn't kicked in!

SMF you are so lucky not to have any discomfort, feeding is so sore for me, I really hope it eases off! I've heard milk changes in the later stages so I will see how that affects my little milk monster's appetite!

nickynorris Hi! I've added you onto the list as you seem to have dropped off it, congratulations and wishing you all the best.

Ooooh can I join?

I've just discovered that I'm pregnant with our 3rd. Our DCs are 3 and nearly 2.

I have a MMC in November at 10 weeks and a chemical pregancy MC at 5 weeks in the New Year.

I am cautiously excited but rather unexcited all at the same time!

My EDD is 15th Feb

Hello, congratulations and welcome brownpaper and clareanna. Am very to hear about your MCs. Fingers crossed for sticky beans for one and all

I'm still not feeling too many symptoms, although I've carried on with my BBT temping and my temps are lovely and high so not concerned at the moment!
I've booked an appointment with my GP for monday morning and DH and I are thinking about whether to go for a private viability scan at about 8 weeks. I had a MMC before conceiving DD which wasn't discovered until 11 weeks, so had an 8 week scan with her for reassurance. Money is a little tight though....

Hope you all have a nice day and enjoy the sunshine before it disappears.

PinkElephant73 · 05/06/2010 10:24

Hi all good to meet you. Im 36 and due with DC3 on 6th Feb 2011 if all goes to plan!
Hope you are all well and enjoying the "calm before the storm" before the sickness and exhaustion kicks in!

Ive only found this board thanks to TheBreastMilksOnMe posting on the "other" Feb2010 thread. I'm a Mumnset newbie - are the site admins able to merge these threads? I had previously only made it to the Pregnancy board, as it is first on the list of boards and "Antenatal clubs" is not visible unless you click on "more".

naitimum · 05/06/2010 16:43

hi,
Can I join? Have tested the last 2 days and got faint BFPs, think I am 4 weeks now. Had an mc beginning of april that also only came up with faint BFPs and then I mc'd at five and a half weeks, so I can't decide whether to test again now or wait a few days. If I get another faint one I think I'll have a panic so maybe I should wait (although don't think I can!!)
Good luck to you all!

naitimum · 05/06/2010 16:44

Ps I think (and hope) my EDD is 11th Feb 2011.

Hi all! Hope everyone's alright? Welcmoe to all the newbies!

Feeling pretty rough today as I have a cold and I'm trying to avoid taking anything even though I know paracetamol is safe during pregnancy I'd rather not take anything!

I'm feeling pretty full after my meals at the moment and not eating as much as usual. I've heard this is because th digestion slows down whilst you are prgnnat in order for the body to maximise the absorption of nutrients? I wish this was how it was all the time as I wouldn't have a problem with over-eating then!

I am determined not to gain too much this time around as I gained 5 stone last time and it was horribly uncomfortable! I am going to try ad keep my weight gain to the recommended 2 stone by just watching what I eat and loosely following slimming world, which was what helped me to lose the weight last time, and breastfeeding of course!

Anyone else want to join me in support of a healthy weight gain?

Hi The Breastmilksonme. Ive been going to slimming world for the last year and im determined not to gain loads of weight aswell so im carrying on attending and keeping fit to. Im used to going to the gym every other day doing a full on workout but since finding out im preg iv had to well take it easier. Hope everyones feeling good today?xx

TheBreastmilksOnMe · 06/06/2010 12:04

Great! We can do it together! Well done you being able to go to the gym I used to before I had DS, in fact I was training for the local marathon when I fell pregnant. I would dearly love to get back into things but with working from home and having a toddler to care for, by the end of the day all I want to do is collapse on the sofa! The gym and the road is but a distant memory that will become even further away after DC No2! One day, when the DC are old enough and less dependant I will take it back up!

PinkElephant- It explains why the pregnancy thread was started then, however these threads are usually on the ante-natal and seeing as this thread was started 1st, I think they should all pop on over here! Welcome to the thread and I'll add you onto the list

Hello all you newly pregnant people - congratulations!

We've been alerted to another thread in our Pregnancy topic here where you can find some more newly pregnant people.

We're going to point them in your direction too - maybe a good idea to keep to one topic- we'll let you choose.
Thanks

smallblackflowers · 06/06/2010 13:14

TBoM and Cler, I'm another slimming worlder - am expecting my 1 stone award on thursday, and am feeling pretty good about my size at the moment - back into my size 12 clothes for the first time in a few years, and determined not to let things slide

I didn't put on much during my last pregnancy as had gestational diabetes which I controlled with diet, but put a bit on after DD was born as I was suddenly allowed to eat carbs again! Really hope I don't get GD this time around, hopefully the healthy BMI will help, but I'm not holding my breath!

TheBreastmilksOnMe · 06/06/2010 19:52

Well done you SBM, I hope you're proud of yourself? SW is great isn't it? Are you doing the extra easy plan? That's the one I find easiest, especially now that I don't really have to monitor my healthy extra's!

Welcome naitimum I'll add you onto our stats list.
