    My midwife suggested a can of coke and some chocolate (prefereably dark)
    Dunno if it works though.

    astonmummy recommended this to me after I lived on paracetamol for a week and it worked.
    :T

    Hate fizzy drinks though so there was a constant open can on the side going flat, and a toothbrush at the ready. Headaches went at 16 weeks, something to do with placenta changing hormones is what the midwife said. New hormones made me feel like I needed to rip someones head off!

    Some times you just think that life is out to get you...
    Nan passed away just before christmas and now it looks like my grandad might follow very soon - he's just given up according to my dad.... I did expect it but I wasn't expecting it so soon after nan - it's barely been a month :(
    Bah... life sucks so I'm going to veg infront of the TV snuggled up to hubby with a chinese takeaway and a glass of wine...

    Thinking of you!

    I always think when people love each other so much they can't possibly stay when one has gone. It helped me to think that my Nan would have been so very happy when she was back with my Grandad. I love to think of them back together. Take care. X.

    Thanks guys - I did have a good cry outside Comet where we were when mum called - looking for a new fridge freezer - and lots of hugs of hubby... I'm seriously fancying just pigging out on phishfood now I've read of someone else eating it lol but only have dull vanilla in the freezer I think :)
    oh well - DH will have to dish out extra hugs for me instead...
    I'm just really sad that it looks like neither of my grandparents will get to meet their greatgrand daughter :( I know they would have loved to meet her...
    I'm glad that they'll be together again, but I'll miss them both :(

    I understand that. My OH's grand-dad died over a year ago and OH doesn't think it will be long before his gran goes...she seems to have given up, sad but romantic as well, if you get what I mean, longing to be with someone. But obviously you miss them. xx

    Hi all.. Four pages?! Is that all I've got to catch up with - it's usually seven or eight. Sami and Caz, I blame your lack of posts.. where are you two?!
    busy busy busy thats me! :D
    I took Mummy to the hospital first thing to have her hernia checked and she had the whole day off, Daddy is still off work with his DVT so we spent the day with them. My dad loves "postman pat sds" even more than chris does :rotfl:
    Also the parent club has been quite busy recently so I'm splitting my time there too :A

    Anyone got any pregnancy yoga/pilates stuff? Have seem some pants in Jojo but they are v expensive. Don't necessarily want to spend that amount of money, but don't want to feel like I'm a bag lady wearing over-sized joggers for the next 5 months. Any suggestions?
    I don't do it myself but I remembered seeing these http://www.mothercare.com/b/42791041?ie=UTF8&pf_rd_r=0RNGGB8W9R5GNZXDJNTF&pf_rd_p=222374791&title=trousers&pf_rd_i=42764041&pf_rd_s=global-top-7&pf_rd_m=A2LBKNDJ2KZUGQ&pf_rd_t=101

    Yoga pants £16 in mothercare, I can't remember who it is but I think its Reebok or adidas that make maternity sports stuff too
