Hope you feel better soon

Afternoon lovelies :A

Why do men have to have something else to do when they go to the loo? Why don't they just wait until they actually need! It's bad enough he has 6 books on the go at any one time strategically placed round the house but yesterday I caught DH trying to take the laptop with him...omg can't even bear to think how long he's been doing that for...gross :eek:. It's like I already have one kid sometimes :mad::rotfl:!
Our baby name book arrived today so I might leave that out for him...he may as well do something constructive in there!

Appropriate vibes and hugs to all in need x

claire my OH does that too, I'm so glad he has his own laptop yuck! It a real man thing but doesn't help that his mum keeps a shelf of books in her toilet - this is where he must have picked up the yucky habit. I begged him on sunday not to take it with him because if he was going he would have to be quick and not clog up the bathroom for half and hour cos I needed to get ready for work, surprise surprise it only took 5 mins when he didn't have his laptop with him.

A quick question.

I have a corker of a headache (overtired and dehydrated yesterday, and now working on a computer for an urgent project). Is there anything I can take?

Thanks

Try and get one of these from Boots or similar as well, they're great to have in your handbag if you don't want to take painkillers.

Thanks.

Taken half a tablet and hopefully that'll do the trick. Been offered an ibuprofen by a colleague who got miffed when I refused it. Ummm you know I'm pregnant. A little sense please!

At the moment it's heading towards a migraine. Hope I can head it off before it gets that far

Grumpy now, especially as my computer just lost an hour's work on my 'urgent, has to be out today' project.

Right. I;m going to take my grumps away from you lovely ladies.

hngrymummy - hope the headache goes away, i always think the best thing for headaches is to get into bed and have a good snooze.

smartie - best wishes for tomorrow really excited for you!

its my last day at work tomorrow yipeeeee i cant believe it, somehow finishing work is making this all so so real getting a bit jittery now. but the fear of giving birth seems to have surpassed i think im more excited than anything now :T

Technically you can take 8mg of co-codomol when pregnant. The delights of SPD mean you get pescribed it. Does wonders for a headache as well.

Pixels movements are like tummy rumbling but no noise.

Courgette hope your in labour as we speak

congratulations to all those who know the flavour already.

Codeine is safe to take at higher doses in pregnancy as well as long as it is under doctors orders and supervision, just needs to be reduced in the last few weeks as can depress babies breathing. I've been taking 150mg+ per day for the last 2 or so months and everything is fine with the baby, just a bit of constipation in me.

liliac early on in my pregnancy i didnt know i couldnt take anything stronger than paracetmol so was popping co-codamols as normal every time i got i headache/felt sick! worst thing is they are my grandas so theyre really strong! luckily bubs seems to be fine so far!
