The rash was lightening before I put her down for a nap. I think it's heat rash actually so not to bad, tho I'm wondering if that's why she's being so difficult today...However, she is STILL sleeping and it's been 1.5 hours so maybe she was very tired (too?).
I took a nap also and have woken up preggy jittery. Did any of you get this? I had it with Meg too. You wake up rather suddenly and you feel like your insides are trembling a bit. Forgot to bring the stupid heart rate monitor with us, but my pulse is low. Might be the suddenly getting up and walking around after being prone for so long?

I have discovered that the reason dh has been sleeping so much better than me so far -his side of the bed is softer! I think he may have to take one for the team and switch sides with me. Afterall me and SpriteNR outweigh his vote in every possible way Wink

Oh gosh yes I remember that jittery feeling. I didn't like it at all.

My chest is feeling worse. My friend suggested whisky. What do you think?

Hi B52's. How are you and yours?

bebemooneedsabreak · 04/02/2011 16:48

Oh yes whiskey is lovely. I would love some myself.... Wink never hurts to try Grin

PuzzleRocks · 04/02/2011 16:50

Oh sorry, that was insensitive of me. Grin. DH wasn't even allowed to say the word gin when I was pregnant.

bebemooneedsabreak · 04/02/2011 16:55

I'm a whiskey girl. MMMMmmmm love the stuff. Jack and Coke in the summer evenings is fab. And a hearty sifter of the good stuff in the winter... mmmm.
I'll just throw down a glass of water to hold myself off. Wink

Schulte · 04/02/2011 19:03

Peeps you're too fast for me! What's happened, is it because we're turning into another antenatal thread??? Grin

Congrats BB and Bebe, so pleased for you Smile

AuldAlliance · 04/02/2011 19:46

Wine Wine Wine
How cool is that?

And how apt...? DH opened champagne to celebrate ex-boss's downfall last night (before you ask, no he doesn't have a healthy distant take on this business at all...!). He is now working late and then going to his mate's for supper.

I have done all school runs, evening meals, night wakings, baths and bedtimes, shopping, housework and laundry this week as per usual and am knackered and p'd off with this arrangement. Would it be unreasonable to pour myself a glass of bubbly and sip it while watching my solitary dvd? Or is that a slippery slope, the end of which involves bottles of sherry under the sink?

drink it auld, nothing wrong with sherry under the sink! Grin

Wine

i like this

i just went to a playdate and failed to leave, due to DP being horribly late picking me up. Host children in their pajamas and ready for bed, we're still infesting their house.

I felt a tad rude.

ZuluWarrior · 04/02/2011 19:59

Puzzle the pain itself isn't proof of an infection but I'd be more suspicious if you were breathless, were couging up green or pus-like stuff (yum) or had a temp or flu like symptoms. Could you have pulled a muscle coughing?

BabyBolat · 04/02/2011 20:41

ooh wine. Wine I miss wine. Wine hurrumph.

Puzz, you ok lovely? Why don't you go get checked over by a doctor, can't hurt and you are never normally ill.

Flight here was horrendous, crappy plane, changing airports in the middle of the night, not enough room, irritating people in front that insist on leaning the chair back even though you have an infant on your lap Angry. Vomiting pretty much in every sick back on both planes (they were only small) and then moving on to plastic bags (was lovely!). But we are here (phew). Although I refuse point blank to travel again whilst pregnant.

Oooh jitter, yes, I never had anything like it with K but this time round, feel like your about to pass out. It happens a lot if I have been stationary - after the flight, in the morning and after a lay down. Worries me sometimes when I am with K alone as during those moments I have no strength at all.

Auld, you could always start with the sherry and avoid the slippery slope all together Wink

RTD. If it wasn't for my placement year (3rd), I would have struggled (and I didn't have a baby to contend with!). Think it's pretty normal but compounded, as you say by everything getting to you at the moment, which is making it worse.

BoffinMum · 04/02/2011 22:39

Found a new commune for all of us.

See you in the pool!

bronze · 05/02/2011 09:25

Its a bit small for us all

bronze · 05/02/2011 09:26

Have to admit I'm also surprised its so cheap. The pictures wont come up

bronze · 05/02/2011 09:30

Just seen its near Wisbech.

PuzzleRocks · 05/02/2011 09:32

Bloody hell BB that sounds awful. You poor thing.

Zulu - Possibly. I haven't coughed anything up or in fact coughed all that much. But it hurts when I turn and when I breathe too deeply???

BabyBolat · 05/02/2011 10:05

It is blinking cheap, if I lived anywhere near cambridgeshire I would want that house! Wisbech is that a bad area?

It's ok, we have all slept now and today I am feeling less sick which is a real bonus.

Puzz, does sound more like a pulled muscle x lots of rest, let DH look after you and the girls for the weekend x

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NUTTS x

BoffinMum · 05/02/2011 15:26

Put it this way BB.
If you were married to your brother Wisbech would be the place to live.
I will say no more. Wink

No seriously, it's in the back of beyond and for secondary you would probably have to find the fees for Wisbech Grammar.

Happy birthday Nutts!

ZuluWarrior · 05/02/2011 19:43

Sounds like muscular pain to me Puzzle, although obvioulsy get checked out by a non-virtual doctor if you feel unwell. otherwise, ibuprofen (if you can take it), paracetamol and time should fix it. Rest helps too but it's not like you can stop breathing for a day or so!

bebemooneedsabreak · 06/02/2011 08:21

Put Monsters Inc onto the TV this morning and while Moo was glued to the television Mommy and Daddy finally got some 'talking' done. And suddenly things feel so much better Wink

PuzzleRocks · 06/02/2011 12:05

Thanks Zulu

Good stuff Bebe

BabyBolat · 06/02/2011 17:32

Can anyone help. Have had morning sickness for about 3 weeks so far but yesterday and today felt fine. Getting a few period-like pains in my tummy - is this normal?

Told you I was more nervous this time (or just bored here so more time to panic!) xx

PuzzleRocks · 06/02/2011 17:38

BB - If you mean you suddenly don't feel pregnant anymore (??) then that happened to me with both girls. I think felt so rotten that when it stopped it was a bit alarming.
Could the pain just be stretching? I definitely felt more twinges second time around.

BoffinMum · 06/02/2011 18:29

It's completely normal, BB.

BabyBolat · 06/02/2011 19:20

Ah thanks you two - was (am) getting myself in a proper state.

Yes puzz exactly - like i made the last few weeks up! Pain is more like dull ache with some twinges in and around my back and lower right tummy. Although İ am a bit blocked up as well so that may be a reason.

Thats exactly what it was literally every time İ moved and now gone - am just worried because it was so early to stop. Then i googled which as we know is a bad thing to do!

Thanks - this is why i cant ever go to some stupid antenatal thread xxx

crappy spelling and random characters are because of this bloody turkish computer!!!!
