I was worried that it might come back, that is why I'm eating whatever I feel like now, because I lost 5-6 lbs during the morning sickness weeks so I wouldn't mind gaining a little back.

anyone buying maternity pants yet? I prefer to buy online (dont live near shops), anyone got any good sites for a lower budget?
I just have the same ones Ive had from all my other pregnancies, but I would love new stuff, so I would love to hear of places too!Quote:

thorz pleased your feeling a bit better mines begining to lift a bit if I eat too much sugar or get too tired it comes back but other than most days I'm not too bad now whaoooooooooooooooo
okay UK ladies (and maybe others don't know when your school terms start!)
I know this sounds silly but I really really want baby to be born before 31 Aug my ds1 and ds2 are one school year after the other and I really only want one years gap between ds2 and ds3/dd! it's finanical too with the vouchers for childcare etc. My due dates 09/09 so i really want bubba to be just 10 days early! ds1 was 10 days late and ds2 3 days ;-S
Anyone got any tips now I've started feeling less ick i'm going to start exercising at least 3 times and week, not eat more than 1700cals, and start the raspberry leaf capsuales at 32 weeks!
any tips?
Hello
we're planning to tell ds's about bubba after 12 week scan which is a wednesday and due to work we won't be togther to tell them until the sunday ;-S which is annoying as i wanna tell my friends!
Any tips on breaking news to lill ones ds1 now 3 and ds2 20 months, ds1 was only 15 months wehn i had ds2 i don't think he got it the day before tbh!
Fish, I understand about the wanting baby to come early. I'm due the 6th and DS1 was 8 days late and DS2 was 14 days late (by scan dates anyway, my dates made them less late). It means another year paying for preschool but luckily we get the 15 hours free - do you not get this? I tried to think on the positive side in that they'll be one of the biggest when they do start school!
As for telling your LOs, I still don't know how we'll do it, but may find heartbeat on the doppler and ask them what they think it is, then tell them.
Good luck today Girlsway. Hope you see a beautiful healthy baby girl.Quote:

I've taken folic acid before all 3 pregnancies, no twins yet! I hope and pray I only have 1 in here, I'm with you, I couldn't handle twins!Quote:

I know some teas aren't good for pregnancies does anyone know about blueberry? I'm assuming its fine.
Mmmm I found a new love today raspberry iced tea! Is the blueberry tea black tea based? What do the ingredient say?
I really hope there is not two.... I know this is my fourth baby but I am def showing and I am showing very different then the boys.... It can't be bloat cause it's still the same in the morning.... 8 more sleeps till my NT

i clearly wouldn't manage very well with twins thou!
I'm terrified of twins! DD3 is one in a few weeks so baby number 4 and she will be close in age but I wouldn't cope with three under two as well as the big girls. I think twins would just about finish me off. I'll see my ob in two weeks so I'll find out then.
Yep. Found HB at 9+5 and listen in most days but not too worried if I forget. It's reassuring though.Quote:

The only tea I drink when preg is vanilla roobois it's yummy too!
Ugh, I just read the same thing.....I guess I'll be waiting to drink it until after the 1st trimester. I'll probably talk to my dr about it on the 28th too! I'm bummed that I have to stop drinking it.
[I]I don't think I would drink it at all I found another article saying preterm labour :(
oh thats scary. I drink green tea and chamomile tea.
Scan day tomorrow!!!!!!!
Herbal Teas and Pregnancy: Is it safe to drink herbal teas during pregnancy? : Pregnancy
This says chamomile should be avoided I don't know why I will try a pond search it
Can't wait to see your baby pic! Hope theres a nub!
I found so ethng that says chamomile should be avoided for the same reason that aspirin should nab avoided in preg
I've been drinking 1-2 cups of peppermint tea a day. Couldn't find any certain information, so kept drinking it as an alternative.
Ya I stick to the roobois I love it and it's safe :)
But the thing is everything is unsafe these days lol they find a reason to say that about everything I'm sure many woman drank hibiscus and chamomile during pregnancy and were perfectly fine...
I keep finding articles that say its safe and others that ay not at all and some that say after 1st trimester. I'm just going to stop drinking it for now, and wait until I can talk to my doc. I'm for sure gonna hold off during my first trimester as everything I read said it could cause spontaneous abortion. I highly doubt I could drink enough for that but to be on the safe side I'm not gonna drink it for now and will wait until I can talk to my dr in 10 days!
Good idea :) better safe than sorry!
Are you seeing an ob already? I don't see mine till 27 weeks! I see my gp till then :s
Just curious... How has everyone's fatigue been? I havnt had any! With my other pregnancies I was always catching extra sleep....

there is just to many rules! some things are totally valid - but other things just seem totally over the top!
Elements good luck can't wait to 'meet' your lill one!
I'm exhausted! Not very sick but napping when the baby does. Though it doesn't help that she's been up at night as well. I'm going to miss my wee naps on my thurs/fri work days.Quote:

On a plus note, only 46 days until the gender scan!
I'm exhausted still and have no energy to do anything other than the bare minimum but my ms is a lot better, I still feel nauseated throughout the day, but it's tolerable. I do get to see my OB starting with my very first appt which is in 9 days. I haven't gained any weight technically because I lost a bunch of weight with my earlier ms. Now I think I've gained that back and am at my starting weight. I'm only 8 weeks though so I need to be careful not to balloon up!
Don't know if I'm the first, but here goes.
My 11+4 week flab, sorry, bump ;)

Your tiny northern I will post one of mine later.... Mine looks like twins lmao.... I have lost over 10 lbs because of morning sickness every other preg I would be up 10 pounds... For some reason I gain way too much weight when I'm preg...
46 days! That makes it sound so close! This pregnancy is zooming by now! Can't believe first trimester is almost done! .. My morning sickness has subsided (knock on wood) still feel sick but havnt thrown up in a few days :) although walki through the seafood section in the grocery store in torture lol
That picture does make me look thin - it doesn't show me front on!
