MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Am feeling bah humbug... 22 weeks, huge and feeling like death. Feel horribly sick, headachey and just Bleugh.

Dd is having her nap so am lying down while in laws carry on downstairs, smell of turkey isn't helping!

Anyone out there? Sad

I'm not pregnant, but I am all alone, so yes, feeling crap :(

Kveta · 25/12/2011 12:29

yup, 16 weeks and have horrific insomnia, so another night awake for no reason, combined with a nose bleed at 5am, so I swallowed a load of blood from that (delightful!) and then had morning sickness (which was on the wane until this morning, of fucking course), so brought the lot up. All before breakfast. Everything tastes of blood now :(

and have cocked up christmas lunch, so have had to give DS a sandwich before his name, and DH and I will have to wait until nap is over to eat our big lunch, grr! luckily it's just a case of needing more cooking time (czech speciality meal) rather than needing emergency freezer pizzas!

hope you feel better soon ninky and yellow

Yep got ms back and severe PGp so can hardly walk- 35 weeks. Don't remember feeling like this with dd

sprinkles77 · 25/12/2011 14:38

Mid miscarriage. Spending time with emotionally illiterate in laws. DH doesn't get that it's normal for me to be ok one minute and awful the next. Pain. Nausea. Just want to curl up and cry but can't really because of DS. Shite shite bollocksy shite.

Oh no, I'm so sorry. My sickness now seems very petty!

Many hugs. X

Oh sprinkles- I am sorry (you posted the other day didnt you?). I hope things get easier for you

LIG1979 · 26/12/2011 00:31

Yes - because I have had some spotting today and for the first time in weeks I haven't felt terribly nauseous. Hoping it was just not moving and eating all day but petrified it is a bad sign!
Sorry you have all had bad days - Sprinkles I can relate to you - it does get better with time but even then certain days or events just floor you.(Just praying it isn't another mc starting for me.)

Thanks ninky-it has all stopped now but because of when I had a missed mc I had spotting a couple of weeks before I found out I am panicking.

sprinkles77 · 27/12/2011 09:48

LIG can you get a scan ASAP? EPAU or maternity day unit will prob see you tomorrow if you ring first thing in the morning. I have on tomorrow, hoping its all gone.

feekerry · 27/12/2011 14:29

yep total crap. 28 weeks, hidious cold, hyperemesis still around and now spd. feel really ill. cant breath properly, cant sleep coz i'm all bunged up, however, very Sad for those ladies who feel like crap for other reasons.x

LIG1979 · 27/12/2011 14:48

I've booked a private scan for tomorrow morning - couldn't face the epu on the 1st day open after the holidays. A trip to the shops has made me feel quite queasy so keeping my fingers and toes crossed that is a good sign.

LilPud · 27/12/2011 14:52

Me too - day 10 of the worst cold ever. Cant breathe, cant hear, cant sleep and worried about how much paracetomal I've taken so far and the nasal spray that says 'use with caution in preganacy' wtf does that mean???
Off to the doc in an hour so hoping to have bump checked and get some sleep/relief/breath. 28 weeks here too.

In perspective to your mc and worry of mc I feel like a whinging cow, I've been there and know how painful and distressing that is.

Hugs and get well wishes to everyone.

TooImmatureTurtleDoves · 27/12/2011 15:17

So sorry Sprinkles and FX for you too LIG.

26+4 with stinking cold - snotty, headachey, coughing, spluttering. Delightful! At least I don't have to go to work until Thursday, but it is ruining my lounging time! I blame certain colleagues who come into work despite having nearly lost their voice from colds. Just bugger off home and stop infecting the rest of us!

Oh good luck Ligs. I had a few private scans with dd as I had no symptoms at all and was mega paranoid, am trying to rein in my addiction this time around.

Am feeling better now, but god that was a hideous Christmas Day. I saw my turkey at least twice. Grin Tmi! God knows what that was all about.

Now home and praying that dd sleeps a little as am vvvv tired.

Hope everyone is doing ok.

Thanks everyone - all was good and I am 7 weeks 4 days with a good heartbeat. Promised the DH I would stop stressing for at least the next day! Also, feel quite sick again which is good.

sprinkles77 · 28/12/2011 14:10

That's lovely news. Fingers crossed now for you still.
