Nene how awful sorry to hear that. Yay for iron tablets though! :j

I am at home today phoned in sick I had such a bad night. I have my upset stomach back again as well just to add to everything else.

My sister is not speaking to me the last time I saw her was our blessing on the 10th April I have tried to get in touch with her but she just blanks me. I know that she has been trying for a baby with her new hubby for 18 months and that as yet they are not sucessful but it feels like I am being banished for being PG

LABOUR VIBES TO ALL THOSE IN NEED & HUGE HUGS FOR EVERYONE :A

CAFC, sounds like things are heading in the right direction. I'm sure L won't mind you using his sudocrem if it's making life a bit more comfortable.

Last week of work for me!:j:j Can't quite believe it though. I must be looking huge now though, cos a few regular customers are starting to look alarmed that I'm still there - maybe they're worried I'm just going to go behind a bookshelf and emerge with a baby! Got my leaving do tonight, I've been reminding OH about it for days cos he's so forgetful I'm sure I'll get a phonecall this evening wondering where I am.

There was a very in depth analysis :rotfl:

At least I can say following pregnancy there is now nothing I'm not willing to share with my husband......the term too much information will never be uttered in this house

:rotfl::rotfl: I can imagine having this convo with my OH too. "I think my waters have broken" "let's have a look; no love - that's just a really big wee"

I wouldn't even break wind in front of him before, yesterday he was trying to get the baby to wriggle and was rubbing my belly and I farted on his leg (and we were in bed at the time!) :A He still loves me though

ive always managed to avoid farting in front of DH, but i now have no shame whatsoever.....

The analysis did include checking out the bowl contents as well as a half hour discussion of the "sensation".....

I can just about manage everything right now, except the stupid heartburn..... why wont it go away!? I was promised by all the books and magazines that it should be gone by now! LIARS!

Wow, not just me who had a bad night then! I didn't get to sleep til about 4am and only then dozed so I'm in a great mood today.

Just sent hubby out to buy me a TENs machine before he went to work but the stupid shop had run out :mad:. Spent 2 hours last night setting cover work for today, I tell you I know us teachers get good holidays but it really pees me off having to set cover when we're sick. It's like being a parent, you just never really get any proper time out when you become a teacher however ill you are :mad: I could easily not go back now and what, they want cover for the next 7 weeks on top of the 5 I've alreday done!? :mad: Like, how am I supposed to know where my classes are even up to?

Nene, so sorry about your Gran

CAFC - just have the baby will you! :rotfl:

God, I'm grumpy today. Just waiting for the phone line to clear at my union's local office so they can check this letter about returning to work

Cafc; I feel exactly like this with my OH, I feel like I can be open about ANYTHING with my OH nowadays, and he knows all the good and bad bad bits of pregnancy!!! The poor bloke, its a wonder he hasn't ran off screaming ripping his hair out!

Nene: So sorry to hear about your nan *hugs* my grandparents are in their late 80s and I so hope that they get to meet my baby.

Back to work today, pain-in-the-a$$ manager isn't in thankfully so a lovely morning catching up with my colleague who has been on holiday oh and it helps it isn't 30 odd degrees in here, its 21 for a change

tinks try not to worry about your sister too much, remember when you are trying to concieve it is hard to hear other peoples news and be all happy about it. She probably is happy for you but it makes her sadder for herself and just needs some time to get used to the idea. I'd just give her a bit of time and let her come to you.

CAFCGirl

Courgette - Im trying hun I promise!!!!! LOL

Tinks - Not sure what advice to offer re your sister..... so many can take it very hard when others close to them get pregnant.... although to be fair its not like you've had it easy............. maybe the dust just needs to settle, im sure she'll come round soon.....

post just arrived with an appointment for my glucose tolerance test for 22 July. But I already had an appointment for 24 June which was made at booking in appt....so I checked dates and neither are at 28 weeks which is when it is meant to be! SO phoned the number on new letter...some idiot has left a digit off the number, went to old letter...get a recorded message from phlebotomy dept telling me when I can make an appointment for a GTT...includes now...then it just cut me off!! Antenatal clinic line is also busy! Obviously it doesn't have to be sorted right now but I'd prefer to do it!

**confuzzled**

Congrats to MSD, gorgeous name:D:D

does anyone know when milk starts to come in? i woke up today with crust on my nipples? tmi i know!! i tried to get as much off as possible but they were SO sore. i was wondering if that was a sign of me making milk?

I had crusty nipples from around 15wks, I found gritting my teeth and a quick rub with an exfoliating mitt helped a lot, and now at 19wks I'm leaking:eek: Was a big shock for my drunken hubby at weekend when he woke up due to a damp feeling on his...turned out to be me:o:eek::rotfl: Being the gent he is, he gave me a swift kick and told me to stick a top or a bra on before nodding back off:p:D

It must be really hard for her:( have a look at the 12+ ttc thread, someone on there has asked about how to tell her friend going through IVF that she's pg....might help you re-connect with your sister:)

:rotfl:How on earth did you used to avoid farting??:eek: We've always taken the 'better out than in''approach to bodily functions:p Brilliant for when you've just got in bed and done an SBD, the look on his face when he wafts those covers...priceless:D:p:rotfl:
Don't think I'd ever be able to live in a house where bodily functions & various other traditionally 'taboo' subjects aren't discussed regularly:o:)

Hope alls well with everyone, will be lurking mostly today...knackered after a busy weekend:) xx
