Hi ladies, I'm still on the less than 12 weeks thread as I'm around 10 weeks ish but I'm hoping you can answer a question for me please. I'm getting lots of EWCM - is this normal? x

DP - regarding classes, depends what you want to know. I found the first class really good as they went through the mechanics of what your body does to give birth. It made it actually seem possible! Today was pain relief, which was also helpful.

Can't remember who asked about birthing balls. I got a gym ball from Tesco for £3.33. Got it to try out as I thought if I didn't like it it's not too expensive. I love it

Well, the antenatal class was fun today. We went through pain relief. I knew it'd be interesting due to my needle phobia, but thought I'd listen to what was said about epidurals. As the discussion got going I started with the tears, which I knew would lead to hysterics. I had to leave the room till they'd finished Well, at least I know now that an epidural is definitely not for me!

Just fell out with DH He wants to spend some time doing housework over the weekend. Trouble is, he always wants to do the housework that I can do (because he wants to help me) rather than the things I can't, and he's supposed to be filling the holes in the wall in the bedroom so we can carry on decorating. I know he's trying to help, I just get frustrated when I find that there's nothing for me to do and he's not done the things that I can't do. I know he means well, so I'll go find him in a bit and make up (he's gone to bed).

I have a family history of diabetes and they never offered me a GTT (phew!)

Thanks hun. I think I'll try and go to all the NHS classes once I've found out about them. Then read as much as I can to prepare myself. Watching OBEM is quite useful as well, though every pregnancy is different so can only digest so much relevant info I guess.
I'll have a look into the gym balls as they are much cheaper, thanks.
Hope you make up with DH soon, I'm sure he was only trying to be helpful. Hate the pregnancy hormones :mad:

Night Sharkey.....sending sleep vibes to you and GFH hehe

DP I wasn't even offered a GTT so I take it that I am fine even though I was overweight when I got PG

Cool, I'll presume I don't need one then. Was silly and worrying as I ate so much chocolate over Xmas, but no other signs anything is wrong. I am worried about having a big baby as I was 8lb and OH 10lb, and we're both tall. Bubs is bound to be tall as well.

Morning! Well I got just over 6 hours sleep, which isnt bad considering. Now just need to hang around until Morrison's opens at 8am and I will go and get my shopping, then might have time for a wee nap later on this morning.lol. Mr Sharkey is now on the plane hopefully and from what I can see his flight is going to get to London a bit earlier than scheduled which is good as he always dilly dallys around and I had visions of him missing his flight to Glasgow.lol.

Checked my lotto ticket from last night and I won a £10 so will treat myself to breakfast at the cafe before I start my shopping.lol. Sorry RBG that you were still up in the wee small hours.

Coops - hope he rest of your shift goes ok.

xx

Well done you! Brekkie sounds fab. I hope you have a lovely time with OH once his flight gets in Spend some quality time together

I should have joined the insomniacs club last night/early morning. Went to bed at 10.30pm, REEEALLLY tired, though took about 2 hours to fall asleep. Then kept getting up for a wee. Really starting to annoy me, as I usually need 8-9 hours otherwise I'm like a bear with a sore head. I know it will be worse when bubs arrives, and will try and sleep when he does, but knowing me I'll be worrying so much it will take ages to drop off, I'll get half an hour then he'll wake again.

Think I was going to reply to someone else, but as usual have forgotten. Oh, just to say that I also love this thread. Was a bit scary the transition between less than 12 weeks and here, and the thread does move quickly, but everyone is fab and you learn so much from others who are further along than you :T

Hi and welcome
It's perfectly normal. It's a side effect of being pregnant I'm afraid. Only worry if it changes colour or your itchy.

Doglover

Hi nic thank you replying. It's only been around today and is defo colourless. I guess I'll stay on knicker watch!

Hiya Doglover and welcome over EWCM will be common right through the pregnancy possibly, I have had it and I know some of the other ladies have, it's really nothing to worry about unless it turns yellow or any other colour and smells (sorry if TMI for some of you lol)

Well I managed to get back to sleep at about 6.30 and am not long awake...the drunken skunk is still out for the count upstairs and I won't be waking him anytime soon so that he can sleep it off lol

GFH am so glad you got some sleep hunni...you have so much on your plate I am grateful you did because at least you will feel humna hugs on no change with MIL and :eek: at the nurses

Nic this place is a wee haven for me from the outside world sometimes and I really don't think I would have been as settled and comfy here now if I had gone to an inbetween thread so I totally agree with you

oooooo Hngrymummy fingers crossed for you (am not crossing my legs it hurts too much :P)

Sharkey happy OH his coming home day hehe
OK am off for a cuppa having just had a huge bowl of cereal...anyone want anything lol
