12 to 24 week pregnancy thread

Girlzmum

Oh your SIL sounds like a right charmer, PigPen. I think you might have to hold off on the fb post at least over the weekend!

My SIL has been told she won't conceive without IVF and she doesn't want to take that route at the mo so I'm treading a fine line with her. My sister was also told on January that she wouldn't conceive naturally and I was asked not to contact her for a while as it hurt her too much to hear about my pregnancy, it really bloody hurt and there were a lot of tears shed over it (I'm well known for not crying so hubby was very distressed, he didn't know what to do) - then she found out she is actually pregnant so she wants to know all about it. She's only 7+5 weeks at the mo, 12 weeks behind me, so its still very early days and if I'm honest I'm more nervous about her pregnancy than I am about my own (I have been over the moon about her morning sickness, she's not so thrilled!) But it will be so nice to have wee cousins so close together.

It's our nieces birthdays today, they're 12 (already!!!) I can't believe how time has flown by and they're growing into such beautiful young women but I'm so not ready for them to be teenagers!

What is this thing called sleep??? I got to bed about 1am OH woke me at 3:30 and I've been up since 4:30.. this is normal in here!!! I am so tired I feel sick and have girls to kick to tidy their pit of a room

Baby just stuffing herself with pear after 2 weetabix and a rusk.. she is such a bin!

And my maternity nighties are too tight around my tum I'm not even 17 weeks yet!

Good to know I'm not the only one surviving on a few hours sleep, keep hoping one of these days he will sleep through! Probably will start just as baby is born!
My eldest is like that pp, I've just shut her door, I know if I see it ill end up in there tidying it up and I really dont have the energy at the moment. Be a nice thing for her to do when she gets home!

Hi luciferswench, hope your morning sickness disappears soon! Can't be much fun.

I'm 15+5 now, getting a small bump and going to invest in a few maternity clothes over the next few weeks. Headaches are calming down too, but had it almost continuously for 5 days! Normally sleep on my front but can't anymore, think ill get a support pillow to help with comfort, does anyone else use one?

Sam1984

Hey lucifierswench, my morning (all day) sickness lasted till about 16 weeks, hope you start feeling better soon!
Noangel I'm a front sleeper normally, I have a wedge and a support pillow, I couldn't sleep without them, I do miss sleeping on my front!

Oh glee... I'm having a day of waterworks!!!

I've blubbered on OH at least 3 times, once on here and twice for absolutely no reason at all...

I need a bit of a slap I think.

Hugs pigpen hope it passes. Your sil sounds awful, poor you

Welcome luciferswench hope the morning sicknessss passes soon

I haven't been online much, work has been crazy busy and very stressful, so stressful i am thinking of asking for a stress management course. As it is not good for the baby. Which compounds the stress

Just over 18weeks and counti v down the days to maternity leave, I have to date had an easy pregnancy but the work situation, one boss left the other out sick for the last month, means I am not enjoying the pregnancy at all. Hubby is very supportive but worried both for me and the baby. If anyone has any advice it would be most welcome.

Just feeling nauseous today rather than being sick, very very tired so heading off to curl upon the bed whilst the OH entertains the kids.
We bought a Zoo just made me cry buckets.
