Static Electric

[Tillytots]

Ok this is prob me just being a freak but since Ive been preggo Ive become like a giant conductor for electric. I get shocks from everything, especially in shops on escalators??!! When I take my clothes off it sounds like a bloomin fireworks display and my hair is starting to resemble this

WTF?! Anyone else getting this????

 

[bumpmakes3]

Nope - but it sounds like fun.

Make sure you stay away from those fireworks this weekend or you'll be sending them up in a shower of sparks

Yes esp on Tesco trolleys! Boy it hurts.

I have always had that problem, nothing to do with my pregnancy. At least I know when the TV needs a good clean because my hair sticks up when I go passed it at that stage

I have its a nightmare, last week i pressed a button in the lift which was full of people and they all 'oooohed' when i got a zap loud enough for all to hear. I am bad normally but now i have taken to pressing buttons with an object like a bottle or something that cant conduct.

OH and i zapped Isla the other day, she looked at me and cried.

Is there anything we CAN'T get whilst preggy???

What a good question! This should be a thread! Off the top of my head, we can't get pregnant whilst pregnant (until the baby arrives - ha ha).

Hahaha hate to burst your bubble but tecnically even that is possible Catherine......

Elsewhere in Europe, a Romanian woman made medical history this week by giving birth to twin boys two months apart. Maricica Tesco, gave birth to her first child, Catalin, back in December. She gave birth to Catalin's brother, Valentin, this week.

This historical birth came about because Maricica has two wombs and the two babies were conceived and developed entirely separately.

The births were particularly good news for Mrs Tescu, who thought she had been made sterile by a miscarriage almost 10 years previously.

'It was strange having a baby and still being pregnant,' she told reporters. Mrs Tescu's husband declared himself delighted with the outcome. 'My wife is not just rare in medical terms but as a person as well. I am so grateful to her for the gift of the two children we have.'

This is from the raising kids website, and i have heard the story before, how weird would that be??????
