    Just remembered, going back to washing for a mo, I was in Sainsburys earlier and they had 3 for a tenner on the big bottles of Comfort and on one of the Persil small and mightys. I got two Persils and a Comfort, worked out something like 54 washes for a tenner. Seemed an ok price to me? Should I be worried about my washing liquid hoarding tho? :D

  • Thought I'd start the day with a lovely question for you all.
    I'm 22 weeks and I've woken up this morning with diarrhoea. I've been constipates throughout and this is quite strange for me. Has anybody else had diarrhoea?
    Thanks guys, hope everyone is ok

    Morning ladies.

    happydays, not something I've had......yet!!

    All this talk of V-shaped pillows.......how exactly do you use them? i think my parents have one so I'll keep it in mind for later on but I haven't a clue what to do with it!!

    Weird question.....has anyone else got more hair than normal on their tummy? I have got quite a bit! luckily its quite soft and downy and VERY pale but its a bit odd! DH keeps calling me a hairy bear lol!! Anyway, have googled and apparently its a 'normal' pregnancy symptom for some people but just wondered if anyone else has it?!

    Just a quick note to say that our daughter was born on Friday morning and weighed in at 7lbs 11 oz and we are both massively smitten. Labour was an experience to put it mildly and I am looking forward to forgetting the experience and getting on with being a new mummy. Must say my DH was absolutley amazing and please pack lots of snacks for them just in case its not quick and easy!

    Hope everyone is well and will do my best to read back and catch up. Good luck to all and mummy cuddles are amazing.

    My stomach has been odd since i found out i was pregnant, varying between having the runs and being constipated. At times i thought it was iron tablets or other medication but i don't know.

    Morning All

    Happydays - only when I ate something that was no good for me.

    Lisa - another hairy bear over here! hubby has commented too, I have pcos which means its doubly worse, I wish I was blond..............:o

    I need to speak to my friend today she texted me in the nite she has been back in hospital again since friday and is facing the prospect of another op they think she has endometriosis, another cyst and they will check her apendix today. She had an op to remove aburst cyst a few weeks ago and has been in pain since. Feel so sorry for her as her mum has had an op recently too. She has had a baby daughter who was poorly last week with the vomitting bug just want things to get better for her :(

    My stomach's been all over the place too. I usually go every day, at one point I was going every other day, but 2 or 3 times on that day! Last couple of days it has been a bit upset, and I was thinking, hmmm, is that an early sign, but I think its more likely cos I've doubled my Spatone and been trying to eat more broccoli and beans! :D

    Just thinking, much as I love feeling the baby wriggle about, won't it be a relief once it is here and you can stop worrying about every small change in movement or toilet habits! Lol, at least everything relating to me, anyway, you never stop worrying about them. :D

    Hi Hon,

    I was prone to being ummm.. very soft indeed up until about 30 weeks. Actually preferred it to the borderline constipation i have now. Some people get one, some people the other, and some a mixture.
    Iron tablets definately mess with your system, so that can cause upset (usually constipation though), but when PG you are more sensitive to slightly dodgy things in food, that usually wouldnt affect you, so true diarrhoea is more likely too.
    Its nothing to worry about for the baby, as long as you dont let yourself get dehydrated, and it doesnt last for more than a day or two.
