Added to front page, LD, and welcome

I worry too... DS will be 2.5 when stickybub arrives and I'm so worried about like, taking that time away from him, and, wondering how I can ever find room to love another one...

Everyone I know with more than one days it's amazing how your heart just grows to accommodate another.

I'm sure it'll be just fine

 

[LD1978]

Thanks Lacey I hope your right. I was so excited first time round and know I'm lucky but I feel so worried this time how it will affect my baby

Everyone does say your love multiplys not halves but it's so hard to imagine.

Eeek you lot are crazy wishing sickness!! I've a MASSIVE phobia of it so praying it stays away

 

[Crawkay]

I know I would regret wishing for it if it ever hit full force but I've honestly been excited whenever I've felt a bit sickly over the last couple of days.

 

[twinkletoes220]

Morning! Welcome LD!! My cousin was worried she couldn't love two the same until the second came....she loves them both dearly!!

I am dreaming a lot! Mostly happy dreams! Getting up to wee which I never need to, no sickness but happy to have whatever is thrown my way, just delighted to be pregnant!!

Millie I'm only having an early scan because of my history, otherwise if be waiting!

I looked at prams last night....bit ahead of myself I know but I can't wait to start shopping! When's it ok to buy stuff do you think? X

 

[millielaura]

I have such a migrane today is awful!
I think we're gonna buy stuff after the 12 week scan but we'l probably buy the main things after the 20 week scan?xx

 

[BonzE]

Oh no Mille that sucks, I have these often and dreading not being able to take anything for it. Do yours make you sick and need to be in total darkness??

 

[Crawkay]

I'm up for a wee every night now, usually around 3/4am

 

[Laura29]

Awww hope you feel better soon Millie x
Bonze nice that your having good dreams
I have been getting up twice a night for the loo need to cut down my liquid before bed lol
Although to be fair don't think it makes too much difference x

 

[Crawkay]

Anyone having skin troubles?
My chin is not my friend at the moment!

 

[millielaura]

Bonze Sorry you get them too theyre awful arn't they I have varying degrees but usually make me sick and sensitive to light yeah! Also get aura quite badly with them so dizzyness and sorta dots in front of eyes etc. Its not too severe today thank goodness but is painful. feel drowsy with it too! I cant take anything stronger than paracetemol as it makes me ill so least thats okay and not a change to normal.
Crawkay my skins actually better than it would be with AF xx

 

[MrsG81]

Anyone having skin troubles?
My chin is not my friend at the moment!

I suffer a little with acne usually and my first clue we might have gotten pregnant was that I didn't be my usual pre-AF spotty face!

Although now I do have some on my chin and jawline. I make a homemade face scrub that helps. Just sugar and olive oil. Scrub on your face in the shower and rinse well (I use a flanel to help get it all off). You skin feels a bit greasy while wet but it all soaks in. I don't even have to use moisturiser after as they oil makes my skin really soft. I never thought it would help with spots as putting oil on spots I thought would have the opposite effect but I find it really helps sort out my skin.

 

[millielaura]

Yeah same here I normally break out so bad before AF
Will try the scrub thing only thing is i never usually use moisturisor as my face is so oily as it is, so will see how it goes lol!! xx

 

[BonzE]

My skin is clear! No spots whoop!! (Normal hormonal af breakout)

I felt really faint this morning when sorting breakfast, also palpitation and shortness of breath anyone?

I'm loving it all!

I've had dizzy spells. Most commonly caused by low blood pressure so if you're experiencing these, eat some bananas and when you stand up, do so slowly.

I'm peeing CONSTANTLY.
I never drink anything. Ever. Like, I'm never ever thirsty. The only time I have a drink is a small glass (I mean about a half of a half-pint glass) while I smoke.
Now I'm not smoking, so I'm having to force myself to drink something every so often.
And still, I can't stop peeing.

I had toothache last night... Definitely don't think that counts though...

I'm kinda in the same boat as you ladies saying you're welcoming symptoms...
Some of you ladies read about my experience with DS1, and the huge lack of symptoms I had with him.
Because of that, the lack of symptoms doesn't bother me (I joked a few times last time that my expanding belly was just a food-baby, as I had no symptoms of a real baby), but I'm also more aware of every single thing that happens.

OH, while we're talking about feeling pregnant and noticing things... I first felt DS1 move around 11 weeks. This is pretty early... It's usually felt more around the 15 week mark.
A couple different ways of describing it...
It feels like actual butterfly wings (not like nervous butterflies, actually feels like the wings fluttering against you).
And the one I completely agreed with... It feels like the first time you fall in love... When you see that person, and feel all fluttery and swooshy.
I know it's a couple months out still but, yeah.



I manage a Wetherspoon pub, so have some crazy work shifts.
Like yesterday and today, I work 3pm-1am, then Thursday an Friday I work 6am-4pm. And a random 12-8pm thrown in on a Tuesday.

My folks kept telling me for ages I needed to get into a regular eat-and-sleep pattern... Lol
Kitchen shift tomorrow should be fun. I still bloody hate the cold, but the heat's just as bad. Grilling steaks for 8 hours is lookin like a big bag of awesome.

So other that that... I just woke up. Feeling every tiny ache and crampy-feel. (Because I'm pregnant now and have an age-old right, nay, expectation, to moan about everything and blame hormones for it all )
Actually, I'm still fine and dandy and just seizing every possible chance of a symptom

I hope you ladies are having a fabulous Monday, and Ima just leave this here for y'all...
