    hey redredrose i kind ofk now what you mean,but i wouldrather not have the morning sickness, which i have still not got. touchwood.lol i just feel the tiredness like mad. i feel i want to sleep and sleep or just sit and do nothing. since ihave a cold my appetite is weird anyway. i feel hungry at the right times, or sometimes i am way too ravenous and want to eat and eat.. i think i am nearly 6 weeks now. i felt a bit gaggy yesterday i chewed a strong menthol chewgum and that seemed to help. :) and i tend to feel period type cramps which i heard are normal as the belly is stretching.

    I have felt a sharp-ish pain on my right side which lasts a few seconds. that used to worry me but i think thats normal too. am scared of the sickness though and hope it stays away.

    Thanks for your reply! I agree that I'm not wishing for morning sickness, but at the moment I don't really feel pregnant, so I feel a bit of a fraud! Actually debating whether to go and buy another pregnancy test to make sure, although I did two on Thursday and haven't had any bleeding etc .... Perhaps I'm just going mad!

    Just looking forward to my first appointment with the midwives in January so I can (hopefully) relax a bit!

  • I'm 6+1 now and starting to get sickness! The last couple of days it came on in the afternoon/evening and the only thing that seems to ease it is eating! Woke up feeling rough today and it's not really shifted apart from when I eat. So far today have had cereal, a banana, a carrot with hummus, ham salad sandwich and a bag of crisps. Have a yogurt, some tinned peaches and a mini twix to get through the afternoon. Am trying so hard to snack healthily! Apart from the twix of course!

    Good news is that my cramps have got less frequent. I saw the doctor almost a week ago now and she said the midwife would be in touch within 2 weeks... I really hope she calls before Xmas!

    I told my friend last night who is 6 months pregnant. I was a bit worried she'd think I was jumping on her bandwagon/stealing her thunder but she was really pleased. I have to stop myself from asking her loads of stupid questions though!

    Congrats Nikkikayj!

  • Rups - hair dye, also ready you should avoid this in first 3 months - what about tryung henna hair dye which doesn't contain harsh chemicals. Its messy to do but gives a good result - you can buy it from lush- maybe ask in store to ensure its safe

    Gemma - thinking booking in appts vary - I had one at hearly 7 weeks but some people are past that date but haven't got an appt yet


    I am 7 weeks plus 3 days today, less than 5 weeks till I can tell people,also have a date to start for new job on 17th jan. Really pleased that I have been able to cope with symptoms and not have to tell people:)

  • Free pregnancy packs are they worth it?

    Was given first bounty pack at booking in appt and I know you can get 4 more if you opt to, same with emmas diary, you can also get packs from them...wanted to know are they worth i it or will I get hassled in future by companies...which packs did you go for?

    morning everyone :-)

    had a bit of a stressful evening with hubby,, we were both irritated and got on each other's nerves. :( as a result went to bed with a headache and then at 4 woke up with it worse so had some paracetamol, and went back to bed. hubby was annoyed with me still as i woke up to go to the loo, and managed to bang the seat down. oops.. so this morning, he was still grumpy and i feel a bit weird too as the headache is still there. :0( am trying to have water etc so lets see.

    working from home today :-( and am 6 weeks today. still not sign of the letter from midwife :(

    Thanks for your advise laura.. me and henna dont go as it might turn my hair orange. lol.. might go into holland and berret and ask. i think as long as u use one without ammonia, it should be ok? but i can stay away from it for a while and just use mascara on the sides. lol
