[nikkix86]

welcome to may mummies I feel so sick today fed up of feeling sick now finally past 10 weeks only 2 more to go and 12 days till scan day

 

[Eryinera]

Congratulations doodles! I know what you mean nikki x It will all be worth it though x not long til tri 2 x

I'm crampy today, and I have had dark yellow discharge. Hope everything is alright in there. Xxxx

 

[Piglet's Mama]

Fed up of the sickness and nausea too. It's relentless.

My scan is in 12 days too - getting super excited now I think I've found the heartbeat now but I'm not certain. How are you ladies certain it's def the baby and not your own HB? I got a friend who works on the Mat ward to listen to what I thought was baby, really low down in my hip and she said it was too slow to be baby and was prob an echo of my own heart x

 

[Eryinera]

Babies hb should be about 140+ bpm depending on age which is much faster than ours it sounds like a train or galloping horses x yellow discharge is normal my consultant told me just means your progesterone is high (which is good obviously lol) cramps can be normal too could be a sign to take it easy or to gently move.

Welcome doodles x
There are so many sounds in there but once you find baby there is no denying it. Like a little train. Does yours have heartrate monitor on it. When I find baby it goes up very quickly to 160+ everything else is lower xx

Ah, Ery, I see you've got a ticker now.

 

[Eryinera]

Aye I treated myself after the 10 week scan. I'm officially further than my mc''s and a bit more relaxed. Just counting down the days til tri 2!!!

My OH has popped out for a few games of pool with his friend so I am in and waiting for my takeaway, ordered a curry. Yum! I can't eat Chinese anymore but can have curry if not too spicy. Can't wait, I feel so queasy and need to just eat asap before it gets worse.
I am going to attempt to leave the house on my own tomorrow. First time popping to shops, need to get my sister a bday card. I hope I don't faint or sick all over marks and Spencer!! Xx

 

[Loubalouba]

Oh curry I could really eat a curry right now!! X

 

[Eryinera]

Good luck hun x x feels so good when you achieve it. Just make sure you have a drink/snacks with you if needed

 

[lisey]

I will go with supplies
Curry was delicious but I could actually burst!! Xx

 

[Eryinera]

Lol. Bless ya. I'm enjoying the relief of my strong anti sickness I feel human. But me and hubby have agreed to not use them too much as it does increase risks of some problems with bubs like cleft palate and minor heart defects and well each time I ask if I can justify to my child why I needed the pill before I take it. Today I couldn't touch fluids and after having about 100ml between midnight and 5pm I decided it was time. Feeling slightly guilty now but I'm going to rehydrate and make the most of it.

 

[lisey]

That sounds like a good plan. You need to keep your fluids up.
I am sure the risk is so tiny, I doubt they would prescribe them otherwise xx

 

[Eryinera]

Oh I'm sure. But you know what's it's like we don't stop the worry!

 

[lisey]

Everything is a worry through pregnancy and every day once they're here!! Xx

 

[Eryinera]

Tell me about it! My son's just been through a bout of bullying at school and we kept shouting at him for not eating all his lunch despite him telling us what he wanted. Turns out he couldn't open his crisp packet and was too shy to ask anyone to help oh how guilty I felt! (He can open them now lol)

 

[lisey]

Awww, bless him. I hate bullying. Just horrible xx

 

[Eryinera]

Luckily the school seem like they are dealing with it well. I know the "bully" have done for years he's a lovely kid I think he is just struggling with how to correctly interact with others. He used to keep himself to himself and not play with others and now I think he's just not sure how to get in there if you know what I mean!
