Pregnancy's Best Kept Secrets

ooobedoo

I think it might be a bit close to the bone for some people...mainly men!!!!! My husband has read it and can't believe how honest people are. I explained most women are like that!

Not a secret, but an short funny.

After the first, and still full of Gas and Air, I had taken off my glasses so as not to break them.

Out of the window, I stared and told my husband about the poor Bunny rabbit I could see on the lawn - it didn't have any ears (I started to cry) and that it had this big thing growing out of its back. The poor bunny must be in soooo much pain.


When the Midwife and OH stopped laughing, they pointed out the Bird was in fact, fine.

And this tale gets trooped out every single year on DD1's birthday! (12 years later!)

What a fabulous thread. I am loving it, never laughed so hard, never been so scared. Thank you to all those who have posted, it is such invaluable information that is not available anywhere, even people close to you don't mention personal stuff, as if it was unusual and they are embarassed about it. Also I suppose you tend to forget some of the horrors...

I am currently trying to conceive and I am now wildly swinging from crossing my legs tight whilst reading this thread to hoping for a plus on the clearblue stick, when I have been away from the computer for long enough...

Thanks all.

A Clearblue stick? :eek: Come on girl, this is MSE, they have packs of 2 pregnancy testing kits for £1 in Poundland :T

If you think this is scary wait 'til we start a thread on living with teenagers. Pregnancy and childbirth is a walk in the park in comparison to that.

I was puffing on my gas and air and telling hubby to sort the TV out because it was buzzing like mad. Between those contractions I was saying "just tune the damn thing in or turn it off!!!!"

Turns out is was tuned in.... it was me that was buzzing

Hoorah for entonox :j

Who thinks this will make Martin's mailout this week as the featured thread!

Do you think Martin is brave enough to read this?

I was in the delivery room with my first baby...legs akimbo when some woman waltzed straight in asking if it was the waiting room :eek:

It took her a couple of minutes to realise that wasn't how people usually sit when in a communal space.

Phew - so glad I'll never have to go through this, although some of the symptoms are exactly like recovery from a hysterectomy.
