It may well be you are coming down with a cold or other lurgy too.. there seem to be a fair few of those around at the moment.. though I think it is quite normal to have off days when pregnant anyway.

If the gaviscon isnt working go see the quack and request the ranitidine it is really good.

The problem being of course the hormones which relax your muscles and ligaments are not restricted they work on them ALL which include the sphincters at the top and bottom of the stomach so acid ecapes more freely.. which causes the symtoms.. try to not lay completely flat I found that helped to a degree.. and eating horrid dry stuff like toast/sarnies made mine much worse... wet food was so much better

If you are not feeling quite right then get yourself checked out at your local maternity unit.

I cannot wait until I can curl up on the sofa and cuddle into the OH again ( with a big glass of red wine)

This has been my most repeated phrase for about three months now haha:beer:

I get heartburn now if I eat sandwiches, and I love ham sandwiches :( (I sound about 6 don't I )

Congrats Claireloo!

I photographed a wedding yestarday- even though I had help with me, it was still hard, much harder than I'd thought with being pregnant. 14 hours on my feet, constantly jumping up and down- I was asleep in seconds on the way home! I think that's the last wedding scheduled before the birth anyway, I do only a few a year....

Resulted in my ankles being so swollen this morning- I couldn't feel my anklebones! And was so sore in between my legs- barely slept much last night as I couldn't get comfortable. I'm trying to ignore my back, DH has confined me to the sofa for the day, and has promised footrubs when he gets home....

I got a cheap yoga ball from Argos for 4.99, it's really good and seems so strong.....

Evening all

Congratulations claireloo and well done to the latest bolides lol

5 from the top now and its getting ever closer, went for our hospital tour today and it was enlightenting, took us ages to find reception lol so proved its worth there and then The wards were completely dead, no one in labour, no one coming in and there were only 3 ladies up on the wards with new arrivals, was like a ghost town, but there were lots of staff around ready and waiting for more babies to arrive.

Its all getting a bit real now, which sounds stupid i know, but i think im just getting used to the idea that i am going to have to go through labour at some point.

Have been a bit off colour since friday, nothing major just tired, achey and more grumpy than usual (i think, havent asked OH just in case lol) am definately sleeping worse as well, but OH has been amazing, making me laugh, being massivly supportive and reminding me to eat/drink/rest etc, am thinking that if he is half as good during labour we will be fine.

Hope those with aches and pains are not suffering too much, sounds like its baths all round tonight!

Hello All!

Finally made the move from the wedding board to the pregnancy club!

Im almost 24 weeks now with our first, due 20th December (feeling sorry for bump already - all those joint bday-xmas pressies)

Great pregnancy so far, a few weeks of feeling sick but never actually sick. Got most my energy back now too :-)

Looking forward to talking to you all and picking up lots of tips and advice!



Sammy

congrats sammy and welcome

evening all, hope everyone is doing well. x not many of us around today it looks like.

not much to update, have my maternity tour at the hospital on tues , midwifes again on wed and back to work for my last two days on thurs and fri. although i wasnt meant to be on maternity till the 9th but i cant face that last week at work. i run a kitchen so its 8 till 2.30 on my feet and i know i cant manage it now.

oh also my mum text me on fri and told me she was off to blackpool with my brother and family for the week, lovely for her but she obviously forgot she was meant to be having my boys for that thurs and fri whilst im at work so now need to re arrange minders lol

have had a headache for about the past 4 days now i think its just from feeling so tired all the time and lounging around, need to get some motivation and get out the house (and i dont mean for the tesco shop lol)

have booked the boys in for a fish pedicure on wednesday too, havent told them yet will surprise them with it they asked ages ago for one as i have been a few times and they feel left out lol

little_angel_2

how did i get to be fourth on the list after the boldies?! :T:eek: quite exciting really

welcome sammy
