    LCK73. i cant personally block under 10 feedback , but when i ams elling expensive stuff i have to be very careful , clothes etc is fine as long as they have paypal account , i recently have sold £700 worth of stuff , and 2 of the items people just didnt pay and took the price high , then after a week had to wait to claim all my fees back , then another 7 days for ebay to say they would credit me , then relist it , it took 1 month to sell to a trusted ebayer, i know its not fair on new users , but then again ebay have so many useless things for sellers to do , i.e we can not even leave negative feedback for any buyer , where as the buyer can leave whatever they like , ebay need to be more towards the seller rather than let the buyers get away with alot of things,
    I feel its not fair i could not tell other sellers about the buyers who didnt bother to pay for goods etc,

    If people do actually email me and ask me if they can bid i will look at there feedback when they joined etc and then make the decision myself

    Understand your situation, I'd be well peeved if people ripped me off. I didn't realise the extent of it.
  • Lol, you were all eager to get back on, hehe!

    Busy tidying today - for in-laws tomorrow. Just spent an hour in the bath too and can't be bothered to do anything else for the rest of the eve :D

    Hi All
    Can i join your club? I'm 6 and a half weeks pregnant due 20th of June 2010 first pregnancy. Can't tell anybody as want to make it to the twelve week scan before DH and I announce the big news but I need to talk to someone, having really bad all day nausea. Not actually sick but getting that desperate way as I'm starting to feel that if I was at least sick there might be some form of relief. DH keeps saying he doesn't think it works like that but it's really getting me down. Also I do a job were I assess peoples ability to eat after an aquired head injury/stroke etc and going into the wards/nursing homes with all the smells and watching people eat (which admittedly a lot of other folk used to ask me how I could stand doing the job before but it never ever bothered me) are now making me gag. I'm getting really angry with myself as it's just a bit of feeling sick so why am I feeling so totally over whelmed by it? Please, please any advice would be much appreciated.

    Hiya, I am due on the 22nd of june! :)

    Just to say my sickness has been bad too, much worse than my first pregnancy. I am physically sick every morning and feel terrible all day, it even wakes me up in the night grr! So I feel your pain.

    I have found the best things to help me are- homeopathy, I take these 4x a day, and find they help me so much though friends have had mixed results. I am still sick in the morning, and nauseous in the eve, but it is much better in the day, and bouts of nausea pass quicker iyswim. I take sepia 30c, but if you look online then you need to look for symptoms to suit yours as there are different remedies for different types of MS. Well worth it imo!

    I find lemonade or coke really good as a cure. It tends to give me about 1/2 hour of not feeling sick. :) Also eating a little snack like piece of fruit or a biscuit between meals before you get too hungry, and keep drinking plenty of water help me.

    The dry cracker and ginger advice made me worse! :)

    hope you feel better soon, it is no fun at all is it. But It doesn't take too long and you seem to get into the swing of it, you end up fitting it into your daily routine, at least I did with DD. I think I am starting to get the hang of what helps and what doesn't (much quicker this time, took me until about 10 weeks with DD)

    Mrs Ihenetu - careful you don't over do it with the water before your scan! I had a cup of (decaf) tea and a small glass of water before I left the house, then a 500ml bottle of water while waiting, and a couple of small glasses in the waiting room. They were really behind so we had to wait over 40 mins. The sonographer told me off coz my bladder was too full (how was I supposed to know???) and she kept having little digs about how squashed bubs was and how unusual it was to have to look above the belly button at 12 week scan (because I'd pushed it up so far lol) and how she couldn't get a good pic coz it didnt have enough room....she told me that next time I just need to have some water in my bladder and def not so much that I'm uncomfortable!

    MGEB - was it you who said your bump gets bigger at night? Mine is deffo the same! I'm 13 + 5 and was wearing a tight fitting top for work today (we had to wear pink for breastcancer fundraising) and I was a bit worried about where my bump had gone....by 5 pm sure enough...there it was! Very strange lol edit - there's some info on here about it http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071105034044AAEDlzu

    Karen- sounds good!..labour vibes to you! NO que jumping though!! *tut tut* :D

    I'm still leaking green snotty stuff..it's been weeks..just how much is up there??!!! I don't think my baby's gonna make halloween though. Oh ds wants to go to bed, brb xx
    love my little man he is amazing :j
  • I hope we have at least one Halloween baby on the board though Helen!
    :DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator :p
  • Oh Helen well i will send you extra strong vibes for tomorrow ;)

    Gill - thanks for that, i said something similar to OH the other day but he said it was nonsence, lol - he said there is no way there was enough space inside me to hide the belly that pops out by eve, he said it must be due to eating so much throughout the day. But it did make sense to me so i am glad you confirmed that one lol. It is weird isn't it - sometimes i wake up and look down to my flat tum and just go ''Oh'', all dissapointed :D

    LOL that's exactly what I'm like.....I parade around in front of DH at night saying "does my bump look really obvious tonight" and he'll say "um probably" or "I think so" :mad:

    I can't wait till I start showing properly - when did that happen for everyone else? I know everyone will be different.

    Oh in that case some stay put vibes until the day after ;) I'd be gutted not being able to go out trick or treating and doing all the usual halloweeny stuff let alone the kiddies be upset, lol! :D

    ETA: Gill - yes, me too! Or other times OH will randomly say ''Your belly is HUGE'' with a really mortified look on his face as if to say where on earth did that come from :D

    With DD (this baby is strangly due on DD's birthday :eek: so will be going at the same stages as with her) i was quite big by xmas (20wks) - properly pregnant looking. I think i actually started looking pregnant at about 16wks - at the mo i just look like i ate too many pies, or have a beer belly :D

    I also felt DD moving really early, at about 14wks but i am mega slim so midwife said she wasn't surprised. OH actually saw the first kick at 16 wks - i was feeling it and told him to watch my tum and it was just like a tiny flick from the inside. So cool - everything seemed so rapid after that though.
