It is weird, before swaying I would have been horrified about moving when pg but now I am thankful that I don't have to worry about the effect it will have on T levels or stress about sticking to LE diet without a kitchen.

Ladies - how are you managing not to tell others that you are pg? We are staying with friends at the weekend and I don't want to lie about not drinking but also don't want to tell so early. We haven't seen them for a few months so I guess I could claim that I am on a health drive but am very skinny after LE diet that people will worry/ try to make me have just one drink. Suggestions? Thanks

That's a hard one. You could say your boy feeling well or just came down with something? Hard to keep quiet when you are around people who are drinking-doesn't take long for the question of if you are pregnant or not to come up. ;) good luck.

Morning sickness has started to kick in a little now... Nothing like as bad as with the boys but still pretty unpleasant. I had my follow up scan today. 8 weeks and all looks good. So going to book in with midwife now. :-) Its all so surreal!!

Oh, and I asked her which side the baby was on and she said she couldn't tell. She thought it was quite central!? I tried to analyse her internal probing... Haha... And it felt more like she was poking around on the left but who knows!

A question for boy mums... Did u all experienced morning sickness/feeling sick?

I had terrible morning sickness with both boys! The second being the worst - it was horrendous!!

My mornings sickness with DS started around week 10 and lasted until week 12. That was it.

Nicely done baby Pumpkin!!

And I thought that my "evening" sickness with DS1 that lasted from week 6 - week 12 was awesome. As for my DS2, he made me literally sick for the entire pregnancy starting at 5 weeks....I was convinced that my IG sway worked with him....and I had swayed pink then too!!!

I am a horrible liar - I go red and start giggling. I just had this exact thing when my parents were over and my Dad guessed within about 3 days. I might go with pumpkins suggestion of saying I am on antibiotics if anyone asks and try to avoid getting asked by faking it with 'gin' and tonics. My friends are BIG social drinkers and we haven't seen each other in a while so I might need to pull an Oscar winning performance out!

I was horrible sick with both my boys - DS2 was even worse and lasted until about 30 weeks. Luckily for me in Canada we have a morning sickness drug that has been approved and it works wonders. I literally would have been in the hospital on IV my entire pregnancies without it! This one I also have it bad so for me it definitely doesn't mean anything! I hear the second pregnancy is always the worst for MS.. so don't freak out if you aren't as sick this time.

Oh and side note - my two pregnancies were polar opposites of each other - DS1 gained 10lbs total, was sick, carried low etc. DS2 gained 25lbs, horribly sick, carried high, looked ugly.. every girl "symptom" you could think of and he's all boy! I don't believe in any of that symptom stuff anymore..
