Good to have you back Kay. NJ I am so sorry about the way you are being treated. I have no advise except to go to hospital but I know that is not what you want to do.....

lardybump · 14/10/2008 19:48

Sorky I have emailed you back thank you so much.....

SesHasapinkline · 14/10/2008 20:44

I've been trying to post all day but my phone's been playing up. We're going shopping for a new computer on Saturday so hopefully I'll finally find posting a bit easier then - when I'm at home at least!

NJ - I can only agree with what others have said. If you want to offload elsewhere that's fine but please don't feel you can't. Although this is a ttc thread. We've all off loaded about all sorts of things and want to be able to support you as you have us. (Sorry, hope that doesn't sound too bossy!)

Kay - yay for the house! Glad you got some good news on that front.

Glaskham - glad you're doing ok. Whilst I'm in bossy mode, do look after yourself.

LB - glad you started to get answers. Hope the maternity pay is confirmed.

Hi to everyone else

Kay, hoorah for house, that's great news

Ses, computer shopping, very exciting!

And another thanks to everyone, as requested, I am still swollen and getting worse, but I have managed to have two small wee's (hooray!! ) too small to catch but something is better than nothing, I think?

I am going to go and buy one of those BP monitor things, not sure they are spot on, but should at least be a good indicator.

kayzisexpecting · 15/10/2008 07:42

Morning.

I had a crap night last night. I woke up at 3 to go to the loo and then didn't get back to sleep until half 4 and DH's alarm goes off at quarter past 5. I feel awful.

The move was wonderful yesterday but now I'm a bit terrified!!! DH doesn't really want me to do much packing(even of dvds!!) so I feel useless. Plus I need to find a colour for the living room carpet.

Hope you are all ok.

Diege · 15/10/2008 08:04

Monring Hooray for the trickles Nat Really hope you can get some decent maternity care soon.
Sorry for your bad night Kay - you must feel drained Exciting about move - re: carpet our carpet downstairs is a sort of dark beige/pale nutmeg colour - not esp exciting but doesn't show the dirt (much) and seems to go with everything else.
IN the office now ready for early teaching. Felt a bit nauseous this morning, but better after food - not sure I'll cope with severe sickness and having to leave house at 6.30 Fingers crossed I have a weeek or so before sickness starts! From memory it started at about 5/6 weeks with dds.
Going for a cuppa, speak later x

Diege · 15/10/2008 08:05

Oh and Nat we got out blood pressure monitor thins for £2.50 from Aldi of all places

kayzisexpecting · 15/10/2008 08:09

I wanted a cream carpet but DH and my Mum think I am nuts. So I might have a mocha/coffee sort of colour.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 15/10/2008 08:11

Thanks Diege I only have a choice of Lloyds or Boots in town, am pretty certain I have seen them around a £10 in Llyods before now.

I really must go and get ready....

Diege · 15/10/2008 09:01

That's it Kay, our is coffee/mocha too You describe colours much better than me!

tinkisgoingtohaveagirl · 15/10/2008 09:03

morning

nay ye for wees
kay - gr8 news with house
ses- ye for new computer

dd was up again in the night and has just been sick after her milk yuk!! keeping her @ home today thought it best to miss nursery.
we are off to do tesco shop in a mo
getting new shower tonite thank god!!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 15/10/2008 09:17

Change of plan, I've rang the AN clinic at the hospital (got through first time ) she want's me to go in this afternoon.

Don't know if something being done has brought me more relief or more worry

Tink, poor DD, hope she feels better soon, there are so many bugs going round.

kayzisexpecting · 15/10/2008 10:24

Thats great Nat. At least they are doing something about it.

Poor DD, Tink. Hopefully its only a 24 hour thing.

I am so sick of having heartburn. Its driving me nuts, I feel like I'm addicted to Rennie I have them that much. I'm hoping the MW when I see her tomorrow will be able to give me something for it.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 15/10/2008 10:27

Kay, I find the only thing that helps my heartburn is chocolate milk, rennies and other things don't touch it. It soothes that hot knife feeling in the back of your throat as well.

Oooh, not the thick 'shake' type milks though - they hurt.

kayzisexpecting · 15/10/2008 10:30

Milk does help me but I hate milk so I might have to get some chocolate milkshake.

Someone told me fizzy drinks helps them but it does nothing for me.

I just bought a big plastic box to put some books or something in for the move. But DS is now lying in it.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 15/10/2008 10:36

I am the same with milk, though craved it big style at the start of this pregnancy. Don't try to pre-empt the heartburn with milk (choc or otherwise) wait until it is actually starting to hurt because too much milk can neutralise the acid too far the other way and you will end up with a very alkaline tummy, which isn't nice either.

Is the new house far from where you are now?

tinkisgoingtohaveagirl · 15/10/2008 11:21

gr8 news nat about an appointment good luck

poor u kay with heartburn hope it gets better

dd seems to be ok we did food shopping she has been eating chocolate etc is starving

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 15/10/2008 12:16

Glad she seems better Tink, you did right to keep her off though, if it is some sort of bug it'd have just been passed round, besides if she has been up all night she'll be tired and likely to pick up another bug.

I have just lost some of my show, am getting slightly worried now.

GYo · 15/10/2008 13:24

Hi Everyone,
Not caught up properly as works manic but sorry to hear about things Nat, glad you are going to the hospital today. Losing some shows sounds worrying- any more since 12pm?

Hi everyone else- sorry not caught up yet.

Diege · 15/10/2008 13:32

Afternoon . Hope the hospital apointment goes OK Nat - glad you got one as at least now you'll (hopefully) get someone decent to listen to you. Hope the show is just the start of things starting to soften up a little and nothing too imminent.
Must dash, meeting just started. Hi to everyone else x

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 15/10/2008 13:45

I was kind of waiting for the shows to start anyway because of the contractions, just seeing it on top of everything else got my heart pumping a bit!

We are just heading off now, wish us luck! xxx

Diege · 15/10/2008 13:48

Good luck!!!!

kayzisexpecting · 15/10/2008 13:51

Good Luck Nat!!!!!

The new house is about 5ish minutes away from this house.

I feel like poo!!!! I'm so tired and I have to go to work this evening. I think I'll be in bed by half 9 if not earlier tonight!!

GYo · 15/10/2008 13:56

Good luck Nat. Thinking of your this afternoon.

Kay- sorry you are feeling poo. Pain having to work. If its any consolation Im in bed by 9pm every night and Im only 18wks... what is this pregnancy thing all about!

tinkisgoingtohaveagirl · 15/10/2008 15:59
