Uk SMOG Wannabes ~ February

[maybebabythree]

Got home this afternoon and not feeling great now. Think the drop in my blood pressure is effecting my ability to function. Have to go back tomorrow, Monday, see the consultant and have a growth scan weds.

My father in law lives .5 miles away and as per usual is the only person to not ask how I am or if he can help. Dh is exhausted now. He could at least offer to sit the boys while dh rests or dh visits me. But he has the cheek to ash dh to go and buy him a paper or pick him and step mum pissed from the pub! I just can't get over what a selfish tosser he is. If they think my kids or me will be interested when they are old and in firm they ate in for a shock ad I will purposely move as far from them as possible. Makes me so mad. Feel so sorry for dh as his parents are a disgrace

are chick peas OK on girl LE diet???

They're probably not the best idea because they're high in protein and very healthy - but, if you can fit them in to your daily cal/protein/sodium allowance they're ok to have now and then and much better than a big steak!!

Thanks Inglewood. I do have a nasty cough and have had it for around 4 weeks now but it's the pregnancy stuff making me feel crap really. This week I've started to feel really breathless and have had some episodes where my heart has gone funny - mainly while driving which is scary! Doctor says it's all normal pregnancy related stuff but after 3 easy pregnancies it's come as a bit of a shock. I'm wishing away the next 15 weeks I'm afraid! I'm glad everything was ok at your scan, 8 weeks will come around in no time - so exciting!

Tlm unless I do ivf then I'm not having another baby. Dh isn't keen to talk about it until after dave is here. To be 100% honest I would have another for a girl so it would have to be gauranteed.

[Inglewood]

Z, sorry to hear that. Your immune system being pg will be low, so hope ur better soon. How scary it is over ur heart, know what u mean tho! My breathlessness comes and goes depending on how high/low thw babies are lying. My oesphageal spasms make my heart go funny, feels like I'm having a heart attack as sometimes it's so so painful. Hoping the iron liquid helps and doesn't aggravate my pain. Part of me rushing my 8wks away, the other part of me thinking "ahhh, only 8wks" lol Take care xx

Ah so glad to hear nini got her bfp!

Inglewood glad the twins are doing well! Shame about the pictures!

Chocolate ds2 has had a sickness bug too it's been hard work to be honest, and now his sleep has been effected he's waking atleast twice a night, silver lining is its getting me ready for a baby lol!

Told work today that I was leaving after half term, I think they want to try and keep me there even if it's reduced hours but I can't with the puppies being due on Tuesday, exams coming up at college and starting to feel sick again more often

Mmm not sure about the scan, I'm excited to possibly hear girl! I've told oh we are going shopping to buy a couple of cute bits if we do!
But very nervous as well! We all know the feeling tho, I said I'll probably end up in bed for the rest of the day if it's boy.
I guess time will tell!

Congratulations to Nini!!

Zanacal, i had that awful breathlessness with ds2. It was absolutely my worst pg symptom ever so i really feel for you. I wasnt even able to sit in a chair unless properly perched upright without feeling like i was going to stop breathing. Just awful. Mine lasted ages and ages, i really hope your doesnt

[deaks66]

oh maybe, you really need to have this baby soon. You are really suffering! I hope the growth scan next week is all good and that you can relax this weekend.

[deaks66]

chocolate, yay for scan next week

Inglewood, sorry youre not feeling great but glad your scan went well

Sunset, nope no nausea yet. Didnt have masses with my boys like some women. What i did have though seemed to start quite early and only lasted 6 weeks at the most. Not 100% sure though which shows that it wasnt that bad! Am wandering if the progesterone will help but then it didnt stop the awful nausea i had during implantation so who knows!!! How are you hun?
