It could just be that you've overdone it today, I think I read somewhere (maybe here?) that pregnancy is like completing a marathon once a week, that is why it is sooo important to look after yourself!

Don't hold your wee either woman, jeez, if there is ever a way to sod your pelvic floor off for good it is holding your wee!!!

Could just be a bit of a bug (got to love the things the kids bring home with 'em?!)

And in all likelihood it could be the sudden on set of MS.

Will check phone, I love having two different conversations with the same person, at the same time!!

calsworld · 13/08/2008 15:40

Don't check the phone - I'm just duplicating myself!

Have had wee, slight ache in tummy has gone but still feel sick and also bit light headed? Maybe low BP. I had a look in the mirror and I look absolutely pants - I looked great this morning, I even put make-up on and my posh perfume...

Maybe its my perfume making me feel queasy although you'd have thought it would have kicked in before 3pm!

Actually, it feels a bit like I've had too much sugar or caffeine or something - kind of a bit buzzy?

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 13/08/2008 15:42

Hiya Tink

I am already planning what to buy. I think I am going to go and make a day of it, get absolutely everything we need (and we need everything!), so then I can take my time decorating the nursery and setting it up in there. Last time I bought everything for DS2 in dribs and drabs normally off the internet, when I couldn't see it and touch it, I want to do that this time! Especially if it is a girl, which I still think is unlikely, but the differences in the pregnancies are making me wonder!!

I just knew with the boys that they were boys, this one, I have no idea!

Too late, checked and replied!! Have some water, will help to flush it out.

Hi Nat!! Great to hear from you . Lol at my goff...trust you eh . It was fine but did feel a bit, well, 'scratchy' . Guess that might be after the op? Anyway, awaiting af now, then full steam ahead, scratchy or not!
M&P spending spree sounds fab
CALS, need some advice re: porridge (you are obviously an expert). What quantities should I use? Is it two cups of milk for one porridge? I seem to play 'catch up' when I make it, adding bits of each until I have a bubbling cauldron full of the stuff!
Good luck for this month LBOX - sounding good!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 13/08/2008 15:46

Right hate to love and leave you all, haven't been on for an age and then I stay on all afternoon!! I have a date with the corner shop, and some chcolate!

Cal, I will check back in a bit later and obviously am a text away if you want me, hope you feel better soon xxx

calsworld · 13/08/2008 15:47

Are you going to try and find out the sex at the 20 weeks scan...Kay did.....

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 13/08/2008 15:50

Sorry can't go and leave a good GOF conversation (well not without adding my bit anyway!!!)

Scratchy? Probably is after the op, maybe take a leaf out of Cal's book and get some that lube (name completely escapes me at the moment) something seed?! LOL It might just help out?

OP posts:
NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 13/08/2008 15:51

Yes deffo going to find out, and I will make them look and look until the see it!! LOL

What is that lube called?

OP posts:
NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 13/08/2008 15:53

(Wonders what I can bribe you with to tell!! )

OP posts:
NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 13/08/2008 15:54

And on only my 4th post since I said I was going, I am going......!! DS2 needs a new bum, and DS1 is jumping up and down whining about the shop...!

See you all later xxx

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 13/08/2008 17:22

hello and goodbye for today NJ!! Glad your all ok and it was just that you were busy that was keeping you away

And yes its very exiting about my BFP!!!! I have 5 BFP's lined up in the bathroom now... anyone want 2 tests free of charge??? DH is getting bothered by me keeping checking!!!

anyone who wants the tests give me an email at [email protected] and i'll pop em in the post.

I also went and got some porridge for myself- all the talk of it made me fancy some!! and i'm also fancying LOTS of milk!!!

My KFC didn't go down as well as expected, tasted and looked good but afterwards i felt sick for a while... think i may already be going off it like i did with the other 2!!

tinkispregnantwithpickle · 13/08/2008 17:26

needs must nat especially if it involves chocolate
feel same as u regarding pregnancies this one feels different to my last 2.

hoping for a boy as we did deed 3 days before ovulation probably be a girl

lardybump · 13/08/2008 17:29

evening ladies.... hope you are feeling better cals. And NJ hope you enjoyed the chocolate (where is mine btw?)

Diege glad last night went well.... I can not wait until you get your BFP......

Hello everyone else. I did get lots of photos but I dont have a scanner so can not load them up....

Diege · 13/08/2008 17:46

Hi Lardy . BFP any month, any due date will do me now! Don't mind if it's due Christmas Day!
Feeling pretty rubbish - think I'm getting a migriane (back to PMT symptoms then so heading for a quiet sofa .
Back in the morning - have relaxing evening everyone .

lardybump · 13/08/2008 18:00

night diege hope you are feeling better soon.

GruffaloSoldier · 13/08/2008 18:59

Hi all

I am also a porridge lover! I like mine with semi skimmed milk and honey - sometimes I have it with blueberries. Yum, can't wait til breakfast!

Great that 20 week scan is so close NJ.

I still have a streaming cold which is making me very grumpy - but at least I have done my working week now - can recover over the next 4 days hopefully!
Have my first appointment with midwife booked for 30th Aug. It was so weird writing that one in my diary - I am still finding it all very surreal!

calsworld · 13/08/2008 19:06

Am feeling much better now, not sure what that was all about. Maybe I have been overdoing it a little...you know, working and all, LOL.

Yep, Pre-seedis what we used, it works out quite expensive per GOF but really loved it, as I don't make as much CM as I did ten years ago so I also find it all a bit 'scratchy'. We really liked it and we got pg first month of using it!!

I would def. recommend it on that basis alone! If you read all the marketing stuff there's loads of people that get pg in first couple of months of trying. I wouldn't rely on it but it certainly didn't do us an harm! And, I think, far nicer than using real egg whites which I have read about!!!

On the gof side we haven't had sex at all been very active since we got the BFP, and we've got a couple of sachets left that might get put to use in the next couple of days.

My tummy is funny - in the morning its all nice and normal sized (if a little generous but that's just me!) and by evening (i.e now) I'm bursting out of my trousers completely and need to put my pyjamas on!

Have managed to pick up DS, get home and sort his tea and mine and DH's all before the end of CBeebies which is quite an achievement in the calsworld house. So now, DH will take DS up for his bath and to bed and I can just slob out all over the sofa relax. Hooray!

An early night for us tonight though, I think we 'forgot' we weren't still on holiday last night and sat watching crap on telly till really night before registering the time and legging it to bed!

I'm sat on the sofa with the patio doors open while DS runs round the garden with DH. I can't believe my little boy can run! He's very cute and I can't wait to see him with a new brother or sister . Hope he's not too jealous when he/she arrives.

Anyhoo, I'm rambling aren't I....

calsworld · 13/08/2008 19:07

OOooh, I waffled so much I missed you there GS, good to hear from you!

2beautifulgirls · 13/08/2008 20:26

Sorry about awful spellings, head is all over the place!

SesQal · 13/08/2008 20:39

2BG -
Really sorry your trip was ruined by the weather. Does not sound my idea of fun. Hope you'll be able to try and have a holiday at home?! (I know it's not the same) I'm v impressed you stayed as long as you did from the sounds of things!
Fingers crossed for TEW to stay away and a BFP!
