@Bubbabee sorry to hear about more bleeding. Midwife sounds like they are doing everything they can which is reassuring. Rest up and glad to hear your baby girl is doing well. I’m 17+2 today too. And this weather is insane. So glad it’s just for one day 🤣

Bubbabee · 31/07/2020 23:48

@Pinkpaintlover aww thank you. They have been really taking care of me.
😂😂😂 I'm sorry happy it's just one day too x

@Bubbabee Sorry your still having a rough time. Fingers crossed the medication works for you.

Normally I enjoy the sun and have olive skin that doesn’t burn. 10 minutes out now and I’m frazzling!!!

Headaches are a nightmare although I don’t have migraines but if I’m out and there’s any sort of wind it kills my head!! Strange!

IshaPoet · 01/08/2020 12:24

@Bubbabee sorry your going through this I hope the bleeding settles and get to rest a bit

Sorry I've been silent just been dealing with a lot and physically I'm exhausted I've had about 10 hours sleep in the last week my body is starting to feel the effects of it. Have just over 2 weeks till my next appointment so fingers crossed all is well.

14+2 today and feeling 🥺

Bubbabee · 01/08/2020 19:09

Thanks ladies. Thinking of you @IshaPoet hope you manage some sleep.

IshaPoet · 02/08/2020 08:32

@Bubbabee I wish 🤣😂😫😩😖😭🥺

Hey everyone, Maybe a TMI subject but just wondering what experience you are all having with discharge? I feel like I have a bit and its quite mucousy sometimes and I need to wear a panty liner most days. today I haven’t worn one and just been about the house and I’ve had quite watery discharge that has leaked right though to my jammies. I made the mistake of googling it and now I’m terrified I’m leaking amniotic fluid and at 16 weeks pregnant this is not good at all. I hope I’m just more wet down there but it’s so worrying. I have my 16 week midwife appointment over the phone tomorrow but if I didn’t I would have been phoning anyway I think. The worry never stops does it?

dixiedo · 03/08/2020 10:48

Oh @Bubbabee bless you. Diary is a good idea. Hope you're okay xx

MeganC104 · 03/08/2020 15:59

Hello, guys. Hope you're all well. Have my whopping cough vaccine on Wednesday. I hate vaccines. I've had about a million blood tests and I'm completely fine with that but vaccines I can't stand. Not looking forward to my anti D at 28 weeks

BabyG123 · 03/08/2020 16:28

@MeganC104 the injection itself is ok. It's super sore after though. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤪

Hi ladies, hope you are all doing ok! I‘ve been lurking for weeks since last posting, really just battling with no energy and trying to get through each day...

Sorry to hear about your troubles @IshaPoet stay strong!

I‘m 14+6, and bought those sea-bands for the sickness yesterday (as a last resort!). I think they actually work! Worth trying if anyone else still feels constantly nauseous. I wore them all day today.

DP bought me a ‚harmony ball‘ over the weekend, it‘s a really sweet idea and has cheered me up quite a bit :) Does anyone else have one? I can recommend dropping a hint if you like jewellery and need cheering up...!

dixiedo · 03/08/2020 19:07

@Sunshinedahlia I've just googled harmony ball. What a lovely idea !! I might get one too. Is it low as in annoying low or comfortable to wear x

MissHoney85 · 03/08/2020 19:10

@Lollipop93 I've been having some weird discharge over the last few days. On Saturday after sex I had some cottage cheesey stuff. Only a small amount but then a little more later in the day. Then I started to get quite a lot of watery clear stuff, with tiny chunks of white in it. (Sorry for the TMI!) It seems to have calmed down today. I wonder if the watery stuff was my body's way of flushing out the nastiness. I would try not to worry too much, discharge is hard to understand at the best of times!

IshaPoet · 03/08/2020 19:14

@Sunshinedahlia I've been better honestly. Been feeling lonely and really disassociated from the outside world just been thinking about the kids and me and getting in a better head space. Ex hasn't made any attempt to come and see the twins or check in at all so I'm not chasing him anymore with updates or access to the WiFi baby monitor- bought 2 nest cams one for the living room and one for the front of the house for security only I have access to it so if he wants to see the kids it'll be when they go to bed and when they wake up but through out the day he'll have to actually make contact to know how they are. Don't know if it's being petty and a bitch but oh well what to do.

Sunshinedahlia · 03/08/2020 19:17

@dixiedo it‘s a long necklace and it rolls around on the bump. I always wear a necklace so I don‘t think it’s annoying.
You can also hold it in your hand and jingle it to yourself if you‘re feeling stressed out (so I found out today!), it sounds like a tiny, tiny windchime.

Sunshinedahlia · 03/08/2020 19:20

@IshaPoet I don‘t think that‘s petty. He is supposed to be there for you right now, not the other way around. These are hard times for sure, but you and your kids are priority no.1 now for you.

BabyG123 · 03/08/2020 20:01

@IshaPoet not petty. God I'd hate to think someone could Possibly be watching my every moves 👀

IshaPoet · 03/08/2020 20:04

@Sunshinedahlia @BabyG123 yeah it made me feel really uncomfortable that he would message me like why are the girl by themselves or who is that in the house with you 😨 like I just went pee or my family came by to see me like why are you peeping instead of actually being here for them.

BabyG123 · 03/08/2020 20:09

@IshaPoet what a creep!

OP posts:
IshaPoet · 03/08/2020 20:12

@BabyG123 yeah he did a big monologue of how I am toxic and a bad parent so I should be careful or he'll take the kids and newborn. Honestly been through so much crap in the last 3 weeks than I've been through this whole year. I just need peace honestly.

lydiangel83 · 03/08/2020 20:24

@Sunshinedahlia my friend sent me one and I love it! Never heard of it before. Bit unsure how it will feel to wear around my belly does it feel ok?

lydiangel83 · 03/08/2020 20:25

@IshaPoet hope you get a break soon x

IshaPoet · 03/08/2020 20:30

@lydiangel83 thanks babe I just trying to get the girls settled and calm before bed but their literally bursting with energy so might be a late night for them

Sunshinedahlia · 03/08/2020 20:38

@lydiangel83 oh cool! I had never heard of it before either. You don‘t really notice it, it‘s not that heavy. It‘s really just like a normal pendant but longer.

BabyG123 · 03/08/2020 21:09

@IshaPoet have you considered going to get police? May not be physical abuse but he is showing attributes you may need help with?
Mental abuse is just as bad!
