oh gosh savage yes as i was told by the beauticians at the salon to stop using my elemis products as they have some essential oils. check morocha esp lavendar. i am sure it should be ok, but just to be safe.

sprays in general annoy me. even my own one so i found nivea spray smell is nice. hubby's shoe odour spray is nasty too. i am even off my aussie shampoo and i loved it.

Hi, yes i check them individually and also checked the one made for pregnant women, but i cant use it anymore at the moment, i think i will be back to boring almond oil. Does anyone else gag when brushing their teeth ? i started this when pregnant with DD and it lasted this long...

yeeeesss i gag every day! it hurts my belly to gag too, so when i gag at other things, the belly hurts. ohh almond oil actually sounds nice. i am liking just baby oil so might stick to that. my skin is mega dry though.

I've not had this problem, but I have heard it's quite common. It got me thinking, I only use a 'natural flavour' mint one (no 'fake' mint) and also one with no flouride, if I now use a 'normal' minty toothpaste it really tastes gross. Perhaps the minty taste is just too strong (or perhaps it's the flouride?). In any case, I use Kingfisher Mint (no flouride)

Be curious to know if any of you ladies try it if it helps

weird you mentioned the flavour. for me its the brushing, esp when i start brushing my tongue. yuck!

How early did you ladies have symptoms? I'm 5+2 and nothing yet, although today feel quite tired and bit of a metallic taste in the mouth - maybe psycosomatic though as only found out yesterday.

With DD I found out at 8 weeks, did a test after having sore boobs for more than a week and suddenly realising I hadn't had AF for a while, so maybe I'll get the whole sore boobs thing in a couple of weeks. I never got sick in my last pregnancy so fingers crossed it will be the same this time!

thank you savege, i was thinking of switching to a natural toothpaste. I gag when i brush my tongue too...
jojob, i found one a day before i missed my period and was feeling alright, only a bit of pain in my chest, and lowe abdomen, it turned out i have a cyst there, so not a big deal. I am 7 +4 today and defo these days i am feeling quite sick and tired, my back hurts and can not sleep at night much.
I, also have a DD (5yo) and with her, did not know i was pregnant till 9 wks, i had no symptoms at all with her.

Hi JoJo,

I was about 4w+5 when I found out and wasn't expecting AF for another 2 weeks (but obviously mc shortened my cycles!). The only reason I tested was to stop the niggling tiny voice in my head which was saying I might be pg as I had felt sick 3 days in a row and had been sick once as well. Turned out I was pg! My other early symptoms was really sore nipples! Both these symptoms are still with me (although now I have been eating on a more regular basis my ms has lessened), my nipples have now gone really dark, my breasts are "fuller" (no change in cup size but feel more rounded at the top if that makes sense?) and I fall asleep at about 10pm. Also in the last week, I have had a couple of crabby days.

...Enjoy it while it lasts! Those very first few weeks of pregnancy were great (aside from huge swollen boobs!) - I had no symptoms. It's downhill from there until the 2nd trimester... about 2 months of feeling constantly nauseous, falling asleep at your desk mid-afternoon and going off all your usual foodstuffs... and waking up at the crack of dawn.
