Hi everyone, havne't had a chance to get on the past few days. So i gave up catching up.

From what i can gather, Congrats to ladylegs!

Im now 13+1 and in the 2nd Trimester according to Fertility Friend.

Im so tired, Lily is napping and the living room floor is covered in her toys so i should tidy up. But i really cba, she will only mess it up again when she wakes up

Apologise for not being on over the last couple of days OH had the laptop and my phone is pants at letting me post - it keeps playing up.

Fuzz - thanks for the links - did the hand one and it gave me twinges but nothing significant

CL - Not sure why i wasn't on the list - i lurk but tend not to post as read most of the forum on my phone and half the time it plays up lol

Sammy - thanks for adding me to the list - expecting a little girl

Legs - lovely name and congrats!!:j

Tink - i had the raised heart rate, protein in urine, hot flushes, dizzy spells blood pressure was low though about 6 weeks ago and i had to have overnight stays in hospital, luckily for me is was just a viral infection.

Twoflower - sending hugs your way xx

Emsy - all im craving just now is starchy stuff like pasta or potatoes in particular all i want to eat is macaroni cheese - been like this for a week now.

Well, nothing but tightenings here and chronic backache, knowing kmy luck my waters will break when we are en route to Glasgow airport tonight to pick up my mum. Think i should take the hospital bag with me just incase!!:rotfl:

Oh and i hae a question for all those out there who are not a first time mum - before you wnt into labour did baby become noticably more or less active?? Since last night she has been having a party and dancing round like mad in there!!!:eek:

molthedoll

congrats to legs - love the name!!

well done to twoflower for coping so well - hugs and best wishes

Happy Divali to Make it 3 and anyone else celebrating - theres so much prep to do isn't there made more difficult by carrying little ones

in other news - i have developed swollen feet and cannot seem to do anything to relieve the problem. I raise my feet up, then develop aching knees and back pains

i feel like i have a child already with my oh- he cannot do anything for himself - who knows what he will be like when we have two little ones here!!

hibbi

moll - how far gone are you? I have bad swelling in my hands and feet, the joints ache and it feels like i have arthritis(sp (dont know what it feels like but imagine its like this))

molthedoll

hi hibbi, i am 33 weeks today - touchwood no swelling in my hands yet.

my feet end up aching if I stay on them for too long

am going to try and get some pepppermint foot cream today and see if that helps - i have used it on my mum's feet in the past after long distance flights and it seemed to do the trick

hibbi

ooo where did you get that -i might try some

molthedoll

hi hibbi

i've seen some in bodyshop, boots also have some

i'm after organic stuff really so need to look around

fantafan

I like efasit foot stuff but don't think it's organic.

Hmm, yes especially as OH promised he would rope in friends to help and didn't and in a few weeks we'll be doing it all over again for Christmas.

Btw wanted to share my bargain of the day. Pampers wipes are half price in Sainsburys (£1.14) , used my £2 Bounty voucher so got them for free plus 86p off the remainder of my shopping bill.

Twoflower - thinking of you.
