[Eryinera]

Geez tri 3 already? That's a scary thought! After tri 3 it's labour lol! Feels only yesterday I started this thread! Time flies when your not throwing up 4 times a day lol

 

[lisey]

Lol Ery, this is true xx

 

[Leighwiltshire]

just dropping in.

Kabuk glad you got some answers.

finally getting some movements myself but only when i lay on my side, my placenta must be covering him, and im finally feeling like im getting a bump, people have started mentioning it now.

ive been prescribed metronidazole, 400mg twice a day - has anyone taken these? do they have side effects when you are pregnant.

i hate putting drugs into my body at the best of times but now im pregnant i dont even want to take paracetamol unless i need to.

 

[nikkix86]

What are they for Leigh?

 

[Leighwiltshire]

a bacteria infection in my noonoo - found it when my swabs came back - doctor said it can cause preterm births but a lot of pregnant woman have it without symptoms, i dont have symptoms it was just what they found when i had my bleed.

 

[Eryinera]

Oo. I'm sure it will be fine but I've not had it before. Hope your noonoo is better soon lol.
I've got a chair arriving today so I can stop getting beached on the sofa. I need to find my gym ball I've head that's really comfy too. Anyone else feeling a lot of bump ache after waking up in the morning?

 

[Leighwiltshire]

i should be fine - just struggle to take tablets makes me hurl lol

im dying with indigestion! nothing is budging it.

even tho im not huge im deffo feeling it, simple things like lyin gin the bath and pulling yourself back up is a big task lol

 

[lisey]

I am pretty sure that is quite a strong antibiotic, I think it is the one I was put on after they thought I had an infection from erpc procedure. I am sure they wouldn't put you on it if it wasn't safe, I know it is worrying though, I was given amoxicillen for my throat, only took two tabs as was so paranoid. The pain had gone though so didn't really need them. I am assuming it is probably very important to get an infection in that area sorted asap when preganant.

Ery, I get bump ache, not in the morning, just generally, always before a growth spurt which is fairly often now!! xx

 

[nikkix86]

I might get a gym ball soon used to help with my spd didn't have one till I was about 30 weeks with my son to try and get him head down lol my bumps very achey I get bad pains when I need a wee aswell lol just got given a ton of 0-3 month clothes from my friend just need some more newborn bits!

 

[Leighwiltshire]

from what ive googled its mixed reactions. i dont know what to do for the best

i get terrible pee pain, when i go for a pee and when i need a pee, just aches lol

 

[lisey]

Did you ask the pharmacist? They are very knowledgeable too or give midwife a call for reassurance? xx

 

[Leighwiltshire]

ive not been to get them yet i will ask them.

says its safe, they dont prescribe it in tri one as can cause cleft lip but safe after. without taking it might lead to premature birth.

i might get them and take half the dose - or wait till im at my 20 week scan next week and ask their advice

 

[lisey]

Oh, I thought you said the tabs can cause prem birth (sorry, me not reading properly). I would take them then, it sounds like its very important to get rid of the infection xx

 

[Leighwiltshire]

no the bacteria can cause prem birth - not sure if i still have it as the swabs were taken middle of december lol.

i think i will take them just to be safe just 400mg twice a day seems a lot to me but im usless at putting drugs into my body, im one who reads all the side effects and convinces herself shes gunna be the 1:500 million who will die lol

 

[lisey]

Leigh, I have done the same before lol. I don't read the side effects anymore cos I am pretty sure I start imagining things
Like I say, I am sure they wouldn't prescribe if it wasn't safe, they would probably look at risk over benefit too and obv very important to get it cleared up xx

 

[Leighwiltshire]

haha im useless, i read them and then think oh i suddenly feel like that must be the tablets! im not gunna read up on them. just gunna take them and ask the pharmacist if i need to eat with them xxx

 

[Emily0505]

I'm sure they wouldn't prescribe it if it wasn't safe and that the benefits outweigh the risks.

I've just been blitzing the house for the last three hours and having a bit of a clear out and organising session. My back is really aching now! Boo!

XX

 

[nikkix86]

I've been sorting my house out for the last week getting ready to move my back is in bits lol

 

[missyeovil]

I hardly did a thing to my house yesterday after getting home from a weekend away so trying to get sorted today but my SPD is playing up really bad. I think it's fine for a minute and then change direction or bend down and the pain hits me. Got physio tomorrow but don't think it will help much!

I would defo take the pills Leigh, sounds like the risks of not taking it is much more than from taking it.

I get a lot of bump ache Ery. Just in general from being on my feet all day but I do get it first thing in the morning too. From like my mid thigh to me chest is just achey and stiff in the mornings. My pelvis is just totally destroyed! Hoping it can hold out for this baby and hopefully one more but it doesn't feel that way haha!

I ordered my snuzpod finally last night so apart from a carrier that's me pretty well bought out for baby. Next job is to get up in the loft and double check my car seat, bouncer and whatever else is up there is all still okay and give it a wee wash and then I will sort out what clothes I have. I'm fairly confident that I have enough unisex in smaller sizes to get us through the first couple of weeks before we can get boy/girl stuff and I also kept the nicer wee bits from both my two so have got a few bits in each which could be used. Not sure whether to just get boy and girl stuff out and wash it now or to just get DH to sort it when he's on paternity! Don't want it to all get forgotten about when we get new stuff as I obvs kept it to avoid buying as much new stuff for future children! X

 

[snowbee]

Leigh I would take them and do the full course, only taking part dose will not be effective and it will enable the 'bad things' to gain resistance to antibiotics, making it harder to shift and more dangerous for everyone. No point risking pre term birth, I think that would be way more risky.

I've got thigh ache?! Random. I'm also thinking of getting a ball, I see you have to get the correct size for your height, if I'm right on the border do I go with the bigger or smaller size do you think?
