morning all
some slight drama going on today for moving day but ive managed to just sit myself on the step with the laptop and the mode still plugged in, doing very little to help, in true pregnant woman style. Still feel horrifically sick, and am really REALLY fed up with it now!Wealth is not measured by currency0 -

glad something has come back up re the fire service
I wish there was something I could give you to help you with the sickness. I was really bad too with my first - I lived on haribo teddies - they don't really smell and were about the only thing I could keep down. Sometimes I could manage mint chocs too at night!Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Have you tried Preggie Pops (I think that is what they are called)? I've heard they are good, not sure myself as never had much sickness.Sealed Pot Challenge #0160

i think *fingers crossed* it might be starting to ease.
I just need to remember to eat regularly, and lay down, oh and not eat too much in one go...
Scan in 2 days and starting to get a bit nervous now, I know I saw him 2 weeks ago and he was ok but theres still this element of fear that it will have all changed. My Dad is coming with me this time as DH has now left to go up North and my mum is working.
Am slowly working through getting all my cr&p in order like house deposits and gym membership and wages etc. Everyone just seems to take so long with everything! Or it gets passed around, really annoying!Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
Glad to hear the sickness is easing a bit, I'm glad you are at your parents and being looked after.
I bet your dad will love seeing the baby on the screen, shame your husband can't be there too.Sealed Pot Challenge #0160 -
i know im really disappointd about hubby not being there as in a way I could really do with the support. I know my parents are really supportive but its different when its your life partner type person....
Im actually now really bricking it, and am so worried that its not going to be a happy ending and i cant shift the ill feeling, i know statistically, the numbers are on my side but im just desperate to know its all ok......
fingers crossed for me eh ladies xxWealth is not measured by currency0
