I have to actually be in the office. This is not good for my back.

On the plus side I'm halfway through the stuff I need to do before I can leave. Hurrah!

Krystal must have her little one by now... how exciting! Now we're all waiting on Candice - come on baby candice, you're holding up the line!

morning! well it's back at work after a long weekend...not been chatting much even though I pretty much constantly read this thread. At 10+3, there's just not a lot to talk about! I did have a go with my doppler on Saturday, and as expected didn't hear a thing. Not too fussed, will try again in a week.

Booking appt is in a week, at which I will *HOPEFULLY* find out my 1st scan date. Wish it was sooner, but there ya' go! Symptoms have almost completely disappeared except with random waves of mild quesiness. Even tummy looks less bloated that 2 wks ago!

Morning ladies and bumps, hope your all feeling well and sunkissed after the lovely weekend..

I've not had anymore fainting episodes and decided to run the 10k after my blood pressure was checked, run was brilliant v relaxed but 15mins slower than year as expected. Is anyone else running still?

Nancmat- I was hoping to carry on running but my back has been so bad (due to an old injury) I haven't been able to. Well done you on a 10k though, that is fab :j!

I've woken up feeling absolutely wiped out today- properly drained. No idea why as I've just had two days off work which I spent pottering around, but definitely not overdoing things. I'm a little worried it might be my iron levels. They were low at booking in and I have Ferrous Sulphate to take, but need to get a repeat prescription. Do I have to see GP/ MW for that or can I just request a repeat?

Should be going to work in a bit but am really struggling to even get ready. Might take a sick day- not sure yet . I'm not usually one to call in sick but also don't want to push myself too far.

i was wondering about the ferrous sulphate too, i was given enough for 3 weeks which i have just finished, but i dont know if im meant to continue with it or not. i may just request a repeat prescription and see if they give it me or not. do you think i could get away with requesting some gaviscon at the same time?

Got it- Wait a couple of months and you might be more up to a light jog, have you joined aqua natal I find it really helps my posture, and back its my lower back I get pain in.

I wake up feeling hungover still, got banging headache today but hate taking paracatamol...

Get rest take it easy, dont go in chill out put your feet up x

Bleeding has stopped but got a funny stinging sensation in my lower abdomen so they think its an infection:o and i still feel rough but who cares if the beanie is ok. Thanks for all your good wishes and sticky baby dust - it definatley helped:T:D

Oh JHA, I am so pleased for you! That is lovely news and how exciting to see the little heartbeat. Make sure you take it really easy for the next few days to get over that infection.

Nancmat- I keep meaning to try aqua natal- must make the effort and get to a class as I'm sure it will help.
