Hovering in the berrycopter: nervous elderberries, sickness reports and backwards scan photos!

[Boomgoestheweasel]

Open to all elderberry grads and anyone who fits the berry criteria: over 30, first trimester(ish) with #1 after trying for a long time, and nervous as hell. Come on in for handholding and nub theory!

Eeek! Who? WHO?? Damn my lousy connection!

knock knock...
Room for another onboard??

of course foody welcome aboard!

Yey welcome in Foody. So pleased for you

Ah sooooooo pleased you're here foody

Is anyone else raging? I think it's the hormones. I am so fecking angry today about anything petty: girl on bus shifting in seat ('fuck you, I'm not over the edge!!' I thought to self), got really angry in the shower this morning on behalf of a friend being told to shut up at work, woke up in the night and imagined arguments with everyone I know (especially PhD supervisor), ranted and raved about politics to my poor disinterested colleagues (while stuffing Twiglets into my face between breaths).

I feel like a madwoman

On a happier note, I discovered today that they have a little quiet room with a BED (a crappy Drs surgery type bed) for staff where you can take a nap! I did this at lunchtime and felt a bit better.

Brod I went through the mad stage too! Now I'm just in the worrying stage. And the spotty stage. And the thirsty stage
V jealous of your bed

I'm back in the puking headache stage.
No.
Energy.
For.
Rage.

Phhhhhhhbhhhsssaashhhhhh

I'm in the so-hungry-I'll-eat-anything-no-matter-if-it's-actually-edible stage. I woke up last night so hungry that I almost cried when I realised there was no easily preparable food at 4am. Simultaneously experiencing the greasy-faced stage. And the inexplicably weepy stage.

Other than that, business as usual...oh, and Mr Boom says I'm very 'fierce'. That possibly translates as angry!

I'd forgotten about the inexplicably weepy stage. I'm in that too.

Sooo pissed off with dh. He's done pretty much jack sh@& for the past 2 weeks (apart from grand theft auto) as he's on gardening leave. I've come home to not even basic chores being done expecting me to cook tea when I'm starting to feel a bit nauseas. We've had a big row as he thinks I'm being unreasonable!

I'd blame it on the hormones but I do think he's genuinely wrong!!!

Oops sorry I meant to say hello foody, welcome to the copter!

kitty yeps he's wrong, you'll never get him to admit it though if he's anything like mine! You have my sympathy at least..

kat dropped cream cake - surely the #1 reason for tears under any circumstances?!

O dear ladies! We're a right state

kat totally reasonable reaction there!

Kitty he is being a poo (trying to tone it down as I am feeling the rage still - just had a sweary tirade because a pop up window appeared on Trip Advisor - ironically of a calm blue ocean! DH thought it was hilarious...). I know the despair of waiting in vain for a dinner...

Well he's apologised and said he'll start doing more
He's also agreed to cook tea from now on, well until he starts his new job. Know I'm VERY lucky with symptoms but I just feel a bit nauseas until I eat. Once I eat I feel ok, iyswim

Yep I know the waiting for dinner thing well. OH was coming home early (by 7) and picking up dinner as our fridge is pretty barren this week. Just got a call to say he is just leaving work so won't be home until after 8.30. By which point I will feel sick or have been sick from hunger. So am dragging myself out of the bath to go to the shop to buy something so I can at least eat before 9. I am raging, despite the fact it's not his fault he had to work late

Dh: so you won't clean the cat tray now you're pg but you'll let her sit on your knee....

Nuff said!!!!!

Btw kitty you're pretty safe with a litter tray. Just don't tell him that! I had to intervene as DHs litter tray cleaning was so bad

wear gloves if you touch the litter tray, please... its not worth the risk.

I hate leaving it! She hates it dirty! She's gone outside all summer and now it's slightly cold she won't budge!

Tick tock tick tock. There was me thinking I'd got past the early morning wake up....

kitty I was awake for a wee at 4.20! got back to sleep tho.

Happy Friday everyone!

Argh having said I'm notgetting the pregnancy rage, I'm ANGRY this morning for no real reason! Terrible night's sleep, back hurting, headache and no painkillers except ibuprofen which I can't have. No eggs for breakfast because Mr Boom ate them all yesterday in some sort of egg-binge. Washing I did two days ago still wet and now stinky because been raining for the entire week of our holiday and there's Only one radiator in the cottage. ANGRY BOOM!!

...

Sorry. Morning all

Was about to write about my own sleep issues, which happen every night, but I have decided to turn it around and be positive today.

We're pregnant! How amazing is that?!! I can't get my head around the fact that there may be a baby in my life soon, but when I stop and think about it, and about how far I've got this time I just feel so lucky.

Back to rage and illness in...well about 5 minutes due to these mood swings.

Boom your rage made me chuckle! Yes thunder I agree we are all v grateful however without somewhere to vent I suspect we would all go mad!!
