Weird isnt it Anni, dont want to scare any of the first timers but it hurts, I even sat there the other night with tears in my eyes thinking oh crap I dont think I can do it again (altho clearly the pain is soon forgotten as you can see lol).

I craved a lot of steak and meat with DD, this time its curry!

1 girl - anything citric. I was eating lemons at one point.
1 boy - roast dinners, corn on the cob, and the smell of curry
I was drinking loads of milk a few weeks ago and now i cant even think about it _pale_

2 girls, 2 cravings for citrus/citric acid/sour

HM I should go, the exercise will only help if you are in labour. Just take it steady.

Im glad you said this. I never know what to believe and what old wives tale is true. I dont know waht im having but i really though it was a boy, but have changed my mind now to a girl.

With Dd i had mega citrus cravings, loads of OJ, satsumas and tropical fruit salad. With DS I craved only peanut butter and jam.

This time im super craving lemon juice (been drinking loads of lemon squash) satsumas and orangy things. Im still craving a lot of cakes though but have gone of chocolate.
I wonder if there is any truth in it all.

My bump is also similar to Dd. low and all at the front. with DS im sure I was higher and felt more rounded.

Ive gone milk mad on this pregnancy too I hat milk usually only have it in tea but im mad on cereal with loads of milk now.


My cravings still brusing my teeth lol had it with ds too so im presuming my body needs more calcium or something

dm I know what you mean im not worried about the contractions or anything because I know the worst bit is the birthing and that is the part that terrifys me again!!! I know once its over its forgotten but I cant help thinking at least last time I didnt understand the real pain so i went in a bit naivly (i dont know if thats even a word lol) this time I know the pain and I really dont want to go through it again lol

Sorry to all first timers - dont worrk youll be great

I really don't think its that bad, but I am the world's fastest consumer of G and A !!

can I just ask what exactly is wrong with maternity jeans?!? I have two pairs and one pair feels too tight but fall down the minute i start to walk the other pair just fall down constantly arghhhhh

It was definately sweet things with DD and went off chicken for the whole of my pregnancy. This time I am not really craving except scones and I did go through a stage of danish pastries at the beginning but I thinks that was more because they always tended to stay down better than anything else. I am loving cereal though and am so far resisting all the bad ones

:rotfl::rotfl:lovley stuff! I think the worst bit is the crowning but that doesn't last that long. I keep thinking to myself, yes I will be in pain for a few hours and it will at times feel unbearable but they baby has to come out and I can do it. We have had a few more positive stories on here recently and I think that helps.

I had gastroenteritis last year and had to get up to A & E I was in so much pain and at the time I said to DH this is 100 times worse than labour and it really was, and I didn't have the gas and air to help me cope so I know I will be fine! (She says trying to convince herself LOL)

Apricot

I don't think I craved much realy - although I have eaten a lot of pickled onion crisps and orange juice.

However, chinese used to be my all time favourite food but since being pregnant I absolutely can't face it!
