Hi ladies, im back funeral on Wednesday went well and i just hope now that its all over with my stress levels will decrease Yesterday i ended up in early pregnancy clinic as i was doubled over in morning with stabbing pains in lower abdo/back. Turns out it was a water infection that i had allowed to get worse, i got it last week in Scotland but as i was busy sorting stuff out for Grandad and his funeral and his pain in the ass wife i ignored it...naughty me!

Nurse put me at about 7 weeks with my lmp but i know i was 6weeks+1 yesterday, they did internal scan and baby was measuring between 5 and 6 weeks?? But he showed me heartbeat which was nice Wish i could have gotten a pic.

I am constantley feeling sick so i have too eat and then after i eat i feel sick, i cant win at the moment! Im so so tired and moody at the moment

I got lots to catch up on when the boys are in bed.

PP- Girls can do all that things too! Also you are lucky to live in a place where you can do all this outdoor stuff. Here is so hot and humid most of the time no one want to go out!And Anyway I don't think it's ok to do those things by the table , boy or girl. My DH is a boy and never do things like that lol.My girls know I don't tolerate things like that so they don't do it anymore.

rainbow-boys scares me too lol I just have no idea what to do with them? But maybe I don't have to worry because I will never have one.

happy- good that you are back and maybe you don't have to deal with the grandma anymore. Hope you ok now!
What do you do for MS?
What anyone else do?
Im getting some more MS and so hating it! Not super bad but a little more then before and I feel so grumpy and have no desire to cook but I have to feed the kids something!
Nothing really helped me before with the other pregnancys so I need some good tips!
Im taking B6 so that's out it don't help.
Also Im starting to think this is another girl because Im getting more sick...I know it's silly I didn't have any ms with DD1 , but it makes me think girl anyway. Im crazy.

aww I want a MIL like that!! only met my MIL 4 times in the 5 years we've been together! she even cancelled coming to William's Christening and has only met him once because we went there.

It so sad that she doesn't want to see him more. I love going to my IL's at least once a mth and they love spoiling the boys. DS1 has slept with Grandma since he was 2yo and soon DS2 will be joining them. She loves to wake up to them in her arms.

Not so lucky with the outdoor stuff, as much as I would like... cold, wet and snowy from Oct-April. May and Sept are sometimes cold and wet but it depends on what kind of winter we had or are going to have. We also get about 4-8wks of good rain fall in the year sometimes for 2-3wks at a time. So even if one day is going to be warm enough for a nice hike the trailers are muddy and not passable. We are hoping to enjoy our yard more now that we cut some trees down that attract bees from mid-July to Sept. But we are also laying grass and redoing the front yard this year so I know we will be out a lot this year. Our boat engine will be finished before summer so we have weekend trips planned and several camping trips.

I know girls can do those things to but I am most afraid of the ballet and dancing stuff. I am one of those people that believe girls dress their age. Super tight or revealing clothing are not to be worn, except swimming suits but they have to be 1 peice but a cover when not in the water. Sounds silly but where I grew up a lot of young girls dressed 10y's older and older men went after them. There are 8 girls under 10yo that play on my street and sometimes they only wear swimsuits (playing, riding bike, etc) and some of the adult men eye them in a way I don't like. I also don't let my boys go out half naked. They have to wear clothes that fit, chest and underwear have to be covered... I am a little nuts I guess!

One time when DS1 was about 3yo grandpa asked him if the pasta was good and DS1 went to say yes but he burped. Everyone laughed and now he does it all the time. He doesn't force them but he doesn't hide them. But we are working on teaching him to cover his mouth and hide them.

I had bad m/s with the boys so I keep thinking another boy. But I know that m/s can be from many things including how much nutrients the baby is taking. Don't take to much b6 because high doses can cause issues. 30-50mg is the highest you should go but I found some sites that say you would need 150-200mg to help with m/s. It didn't work for me with DS2 or #3 so I dropped it.

When I have to make the meals I eat about 4-8 wheat crackers with a little cream cheese and it has helped. Also I am only able to drink ice water and I drink it with meals, while cooking, and whenever I feel sick. The ice water works best but I do pee a lot. Coffee, soda, and dairy make me really sick. When I feel realy hungry and like I have low blood sugar I eat some sour gummy worms and then I feel much better.

Salty chips and jolly ranchers worked a little but you can't stop. I ate 1 bag of chips in an afternoon and felt fat for days. I almost choked on a candy because I was about to throw up and the candy went down my throat.

Are any of you gals just stubbornly "non-immune" to Rubella?? I got checked with my first pregnancy and they had to vaccinate me after I gave birth. Just got my blood tests back for this second pregnancy and I'm showing up non-immune again! What the heck?! I almost want to tell them not to bother poking me again once I have this next one because it doesn't seem to make a difference.

I also have to say that while I am so happy I can keep food/drink inside of me because of Zofran... I have never been so constipated in my life. It's been 6 days and I have tried EVERYTHING.

Yes, I am and had to have the jab 4 times over the last 20 years. I wish I just would have caught the dang disease when I was a kid!
