  • I know Fuzz..I'm nearly 30 weeks myself! :eek:

    I am so grateful though after what happened at the beginning of the year, that I didn't have to wait too long to fall preg again, and despite my moaning recently, this pregnancy has been relatively easy.

    I've already told OH that if we want #2, we'll have to get a shift on as I'm hurtling towards 40! :rotfl::eek:

    I'm the same - it's all been very slow but suddenly I'm 27 weeks tomorrow...


    Pawpurrs - hugs to you. You still have the 1 in 2 chance that everything will be fine. Lots of love and positive thoughts to you.

    I don't want to start an argument about BF and periods, but my friend who has a 10 week old complained to me her period returned a couple of weeks ago. I think they just return when our bodies are ready.

    Emsy - sorry you had such a horrid time of it yesterday, looks like babs is content on hanging on in there for a bit longer.

    I think it depends on how long you've been having cold sores and if you've passed on your antibodies to sprog.

    I've not had one since getting pg, so not sure what can and can't be used. If they tell you you can't use anything, I used a tea tree and witch hazel foot gel (carefully applied with a cotton bud) once because I was out of patches. Seemed to work quite well for me.

    Oh c ra p. I had one a week ago and just used Zovirax as usual - didn't even occur to me it might not be safe :( :mad::mad:

    Looking on their website it says not recommended during pregnancy although some other sites say it is ok on docs recommendations. Hope I've not done any harm to bubs :( Think I'll pop into Boots at lunchtime see if the pharmacist can advise.
