    Oh well, halfway to the decorating with wallpaper bought. Hubby has some paperwork to do and I'm off to find the steamer to get started on stripping the rest! I've told him already it's not where he says it is but he's just sat on his rear end and not bothering to help me look.

    Today is not going to end pretty!!!!!

    I've lost half a stone in the last week. I've no appetite but am eating small amounts.

    Should I be worried?

    I lost quite a bit a few weeks back (although not as much as half a stone) through no appetite but then the last couple of weeks it returned with a vengeance and I have put it back on plus more so hopefully you will get your appetite back soon.

    How many weeks are you?

    I'm 8 weeks this week. I feel constantly sick but I'm so scared of being sick I stop myself but everything is making me gag. I've even made oh go get curry, chippy, McDonald's as I was thinking ooh I could eat that and when it comes to physically eating it I can't.
    I've been eating rich tea biscuits, activia yogurt and crisps as and when I can, I'm cooking a chicken toast as we speak.

    If I don't feel better this week I'll ring the dr. Not eating isn't helping my exhaustion!

    This is exactly how I felt until 10 weeks and now I can't stop eating! :rotfl: Hope you feel better soon.

    I'm going back to my Slimming World group on Wednesday. I am a diamond target member but when I became pregnant I stopped going because I was so sick and tired. I know I can follow it whilst pregnant so hopefully it will stop me gaining too much and encourage me to start eating healthy again as all I am eating is rubbish!

    Does anyone else do SW whilst pregnant? I am not sure what the changes are I need to make

    Just de-lurking to say I still do slimming world too, let your consultant know you're pregnant and they will give you a booklet that tells you what you need to do and also a form for your midwife to sign to say they're happy for you to continue following the plan, from memory its an increase in healthy extras allowance but i cant remember what else.

    T2d. I think i'll lurk around here til you, wtdn and peonie move up. Am a big scaredy cat. Lol. :)

    Sounds good to me. We can hold hands and jump into the next thread! I've even allowed myself to do a little pre-emptive stalking on there...

    Great thanks! I wonder what this means in terms of paying. As I am at target I get to go for free but I can't see me staying there for long! Do you know if they make allowances for being preggers?

    Hello ladies!

    Oh my word - tired tired tired. So glad to know other people's night times are also 9pm or before! I feel like a right old lady!

    And today I caught myself in the mirror in my bra - totally shocked myself. They look huge! For me anyway - I've always been an A so they look massive to me now! Weird seeing myself with boobs!

    Heard they go even smaller than original size it you breast feed. I really hope not!!

    Wtdn, I'm totally the opposite, I hope they DO get smaller after breast feeding! I was a G then went down to FF when I lost weight, needless to say they're back up again, just hope they don't decide to increase much more! They say that the ears are the only part of the body that never stops growing....seems to be something else in my case!!!

    I've not weighed myself yet but I've been told a couple of friends that my face looks thinner - I've no idea how that's happened with the amount of carp I'm eating.

    Ladies, I get very confused by the pregnancy dating system. I know I'm in my 11th week (10+4) is that the same system you are using when writing? Using my dates, I'm never sure if you mean the 10th or 11th week.

    Also, the American site I'm using, for day-by-day development updates, shows the 2nd trimester starts on the 13th week (12+1). Is it the same for us?

    I find I'm waking up at 5am for an hour and then want to sleep around 2pm.

    I think my bad mood may have finally lifted.
