    Hello, just wanted to reply to this before i go back to lurking!

    In both of my pregnancies i have had terrible implantation pains-i had them for a week or two at the begining then it eased off to cramping/aching feeling. By 12 weeks it had gone though. I felt really ill with it to be honest, in my first pregnancy I almost passed out in the bathroom and even took some painkillers as i thought my period was coming. This time around i didn't pass out but was doubled over in pain (like severe period pains along with feeling clammy, lightheaded and sick).

    I hope everything goes well for you, hopefully it is just implantation and we get to see a scan photo soon :)

    Thanks, your bathroom incident sounds familiar. Assuming all is well on Monday I'll pop in with a scan pic. keep your fingers crossed!!

    I need my haircut at the moment but I refuse to pay £35/£40 for a half hour job, that's baby money as far as I'm concerned. It really is looking hideous though , ends all horrid and raggidy.

    I had a dream last night that everyone brought me presents, of NAIL VARNISH! Must have been this thread that set me off, how random!

    I went quite recently and in an attempt to be MSE let a student do it.... She was doing very well until her supervisor stepped in and gave me a ludicrous fringe! OH says I looked like the famous eskimo from night at the museum :o it is now growing out from being a mullet with a bad fringe, but my hair has a strong wave and the fringe has developed a curl so I look slightly like keanu reeves in bill & ted! Not good lol

    Omg Delain :rotfl: I had a fringe cut in last time but wasn't sure if I 100% liked it or not, it's grown out not, but I feel like it made my face look fatter! :eek:

    I'll probably get it cut this weekend, going back to OH's parents for an over night and the hairdressers there seem a good bit cheaper.

    When I lived in London, I opted one day for the Vidal Sassoon students to cut it free- advertised in the Metro all the time.

    I got a Vietnamese girl, who was perfectly lovely, but didn't speak English. We got by though- she held up scissors and said 'Choppy choppy?' so I smiled and said yes, giving her a thumbs up. Same for colour.

    I absolutely loved it! It was pink on one side, and cut up to my ear, slashing longer to the back, which was purple, and shoulder length at the other side, and fire-engine red! Luckily my boss at the time was fairly open-minded, and didn't raise an eyebrow- probably didn't have to, since it had been blue before. :)

    I don't mind my hair getting chopped, and would happily take part in getting it shaved for charity- had a buzzcut when I was a kid.

    Morning everyone,

    Well my 'mild discomfort' started getting very painful last night - to the point where even I was starting to get concerned! Eventually managed to fall asleep around 3am and when I woke up around two hours later for the toilet, pain had gone completely. So really not sure whether it was BHs or baby getting comfy.
    Am seeing midwife today anyway so will mention it to her.

    Same here, my hair really needs cutting but everytime I spend money at the minute I just think how many nappies/babygrows/formula it could buy. Its such a lot of money for a haircut, I dont know how people can afford to have it done every month!

    Money is going to be very tight for us when baby is here so I am very conscious not to spend money on things are not necessary.

    :oOh that remindes me when DD was just over 1, my best friend who was doing her 1st years training to become a hairdresser begged me to be one of her 1st [STRIKE]victim[/STRIKE] clients and as she was only colouring i thought whats the worse that could happen.

    i got my dad to babysit, went in for highlights
    what colour do you want?
    anything but blonde it makes me look bright ginger
    okay fancy a deep red against your brown it`ll look good
    yep that sounds good

    anyways she bugg.ers off and mixes the colour to be interuped by her boss, no dont do deep red, do the blonde, trust me i`ve been a hairdresser for X amount of years and it WILL look blonde, you dont get trained by the best for nothing you know......

    Me and my bestfriend are both well aware of my odd hair and the shameful colours i have let it become but thought she must be right, anyways it ends up taking a stupidly long 5 hours :eek: and oh yes ended up Ginger, her boss just shrugged and said well thats never happened before....... it had only just grew out when i had all the ends chopped off by her about a year later, before that it looked like i had, had my ends dipped lol

    LirinNoooooo, my biggest fear is being bald :( think how cold your head would be, plus I have a HORRID face, and it would draw more attention to it.

    Flower Tell me about it, I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get it done though, because I look like a ragamuffin, and being young already I don't want people seeing me and my big belly and thinking what a tramp :o
