  • Thanks GISI, yes i feel like i have had my fair share now!!

    Mermaid - yes i do, sometimes feel like i need to get out and do some excercise or my lungs'll pack up cos they feel heavy - is that what you mean? I think it might be something to do with the growing uterous pushing everything else upwards.

    I'm 10 something if that helps. Physically being sick does seem to ease it for me though if that helps at all. Sorry if it doesn't! Sitting up with back straight helps ease it a bit too as i am a terrible sloucher so get it alot.

    Do you mean 10 weeks? Or 10 stone? Yes that is kind of it, just like you can't quite inhale as much as you should!

    Have you had the aptamil polar bear yet? He's gorgous, feel quite jealous of the baby as I want to keep him myself lol

    Thank you :) I don't even have to be doing anything though lol will prob mention to mw Thurs

    Definitely mention is because although it can be a perfectly normal pregnancy symptom, it could also be a sign of anaemia.

    I've come over all tired now, and my bump is so sore. I think it's just the stretched ligaments but it is horrible. I also now have stretch marks above my belly button.......

    Ewww bringing back memories, lol. Yep sounds about right! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you ;)

    EA - lol, trust me i could never give up my black eyeliner! NEVER, lol but have toned it down alot - and i went platinum blonde and short hair. Desperate to go back to black now though spesh being preggers. I Learnt that other colour clothes could be nice too :D I'm still a sucker for studs and black/grey/purple clothes which OH always tries to get me away from. Some of my good mates were goths, yeah some looked really scary :rotfl: I'd love to see some photo's haha!

    OH does my nut because he used to dress like he came out of a grungy band or think of a skater with loadsof black and studded belt and really dark graphic t-shirts - lol, trust me it's weirdly cool to see a black guy dressing like that. I just had to have him :D But he dresses soooo boring now :(

    Yeah, i used to only wear black and corsets, with long flowly skirts or tutu type skirts. I had long black hair, (until i discovered a love for bright coloured hair dye) and many piercings lol.
    Most of my clothes are still black/purple/dark coloured. I have the odd pretty dress, but i cant follow fashion :rotfl:

    Ok i found this, this is me when i was 15 (5 years ago)

    I always wanted to dress like that but didn't dare to lol I'm a sheep :(
    Not the most fashionable in the world but stick to boring basics... I had the piercings! But any make up and clothes were saved to dress up at Halloween :p

    great site SJ , LCK not been back on since this morning , lets hope shes with little one , huge labour vibes to you helen and all who needs it,

    I did ask last night but no reponse , is there a group for use mse pg ladies on facebook ?
    Dont forget that little Thanks button , only takes a sec
  • EA - oooh yay i used to look like that too, he he but i have never been one to get my legs out, mine are far too skinny, lol! I love it, you looked cool! I used to be in baggy black combats or jeans but the rest near enough the same, with loads of avril lavigne style eyeliner and studded stuff. AND peircings, yay! I loved it though - did you?

    Ah i don't really do pretty either, can't get the hang of it and end up thinking i look silly but quirky is more my thing, random things mixed in - love kate moss style now even though everyone else does too but OH is happy with that :D

    Sarah i wish you lived nearer me, your creations are fab, spesh the marshmellow cake - those cupcake with the strawberries look yummy too. I am looking for a nice cake for my sis in law.

    Lol, Mermaid - 10 weeks 4 to be precise. I am sure i am 10 days ahead though. Someone mentioned anemia, so i might go and check it out too as i had that last time around :( i hope it's not. Let us know what MW sais though, good idea to tell her, i never thought too.

    Gill - a polar bear - woo thank you for the heads up, i am off to sign up now :D
    DD has just got in from nursery and has claimed the cuddly cow.
