    oh yeah :cool: actually it's been iced buns but near enough. All I can eat is really plain food and basic carbs so it's mainly toast, crumpets, rice, potato etc. If I can eat anything else then it's a bonus. :rotfl:

    A very dear friend could eat nothing but buns with her 3rd baby and he is now reading mathematics at Cambridge so don't worry about it!

    I ate mountains of crumpets in my first trimester.

    I'm 26 weeks pregnant and there still lots of things I can't eat. Mostly meat and rice.
    I live off cereal, toast, pasta, jacket potatoes, sandwiches.
    I wasn't like this with my first pregnancy. The midwife just said eat what I can stomach and don't worry as the baby seems very helthy and active and
    my weight is fine.
  • Today has been the worst day... im 6 weeks pregnant and just even opening the fridge makes me wanna run for the toilet. I cant count the amount of times Ive been sick today, Im sooo hungry and I want to eat but I cant keep anything down :(:(

    Fingers crossed Ill feel a bit better tommorow... yeah right! I NEED FOOD!!!

    Hi

    Can any of you remember feeling dizzy, slightly nauseous, hyper sensitive to smells before you missed your period or before you tested positive on a pregnancy test?

    IJo

    I've been trying for 6 months and I feel just like that for two weeks every cycle!! :rolleyes: Unless I have more important things going on, so can't dwell on it.
    But then I have no idea what to expect and NO IDEA what I'm doing!! :D

    I am only asking as there is quite a chance I may be pregnant this month and have just under a week to wait for my period (long cycle) so also too early to test, but am feeling a bit strange (cant remember if I felt this way with my other 2) and have that 'am I, aren't I' thing going on in my head. Also wondering if I may be feeling like this as I would like to be pregnant so my body is tricking me into feeling this way.

    Thanks

    Hope to be joining you soon

    Jo

    I felt nauseous pretty much from day 1! Smells made the nausea worse and I remember the smell of the bin and cold toast were the worst. Got a positive test result a few days before my period was due.

  • I was first actually sick at three weeks and continued to feel sick for another two before I managed to get a positive pregnancy test (on the third test!) Was quite a relief to get positive test as I was worried that either it was psychological or there was something else wrong with me.

    Thanks for your posts guys - make me 'feel' better. DH cooked roast beef yesterday and I couldn't eat it because of the smell. He looked a little hurt when I dug into two slices of toast with marmite a couple hours later :o managing some fruit but not so good with veg.
