  • Aww clara be kind to yourself, your body is working overtime right now, even when you're resting your insides are doing the equivalent of a gym workout I read somewhere! If your body says rest then go with it. Hopefully you will get a nice energy burst in a few weeks x
    MancMama4 (35) TTC since Apr 15, MMC Dec 15, Our Rainbow Baby Charlie arrived Dec 16 :heart2:
  • Thanks Mancmama!

    I'm hoping for that burst of energy in the next few days rather than weeks :rotfl:

    DH came home early from work today for cuddles which was great and he cheered me right up! :j

    Back to work tomorrow so really need to start packing!
  • Hope you managed to get through a day at work Clara?

    Is anyone else suffering with back pain? Not sure if it's preg related or I've just pulled it at work but finding it impossible to get comfy and not a good combination with headaches.

    Also I'm a size 10 at 10 + 6 and my belly is huge, not sure how I'm going to hide it out with friends over the weekend!

    Hope everyone is well.
  • Yes Pink managed all day yesterday at work. I was very busy trying to get organised for being off!

    Sitting waiting on the taxi to take us to the airport :j

    Im 11 weeks today! I'm a size 10/12 and although I've lost 7lbs my tummy is still poking out! Struggled a bit to find clothes I had to pack that would be comfortable! Lucky I only have a week after I come back before our scan and then we will be telling people so won't have to try and hide anymore! Xx

    Clarabell, have a lovely holiday! I'm a bit jealous :)

    Pink - My coccyx feels sore but nothing further up. Hopefully you've just pulled it and it'll get better soon.

    I feel so much better, I went out for the first time in over a week today, just to Tesco but still out of the house! It's my last day of antibiotics and although I still feel ill, I am lots better than I was. I checked my urine (husband is a community nurse so had dipsticks in the car) and it's still showing an infection. I checked my BP though (again he had it in the car!) and it's come back up to normal so I'm hopefully on the mend. I might give the GP a call tomorrow about my urine dip, fingers crossed I don't need anymore antibiotics.

    I've got my booking in appt on wed, I'm actually looking forward to it. Hopefully it will make things a bit more real. Right now I just feel ill, not pregnant!
  • Pink - I am suffering horribly with lower back pain (either side of my spine below my ribs). Night before last I was curled up in a ball in bed (on my knees, cos I absolutely can't lie on my side) crying in agony. I am getting very little sleep and cannot even move when I do wake up.

    Apparently this is relatively common. I'm going to see if I can find a chiropractor and get some acupuncture too. Walking more when able to as well as gentle exercise like yoga is supposed to help so I'll be trying that too.

    My belly is also pretty huge. I had to go and buy some clothes in the next size up as well as maternity tights cos my normal stuff just doesn't fit.
  • Just popping on for a wee catch up while we're in the pub and hubby is watching the football! They have some non alcoholic beer so I've had a couple but it's just not the same!

    Getting very annoyed with all the people smoking around us, it's never something I've enjoyed about bars abroad but even more so now :(

    The last couple of days have been great just lazing by the pool, having a nap mid afternoon then a nice meal at night. My nausea has completely disappeared but I still don't have a massive appetite.

    Faerie, so glad you are feeling much better! Hope your booking appointment goes well tomorrow!

    Cyantist, sorry your back is giving you so much pain :( hope you can get acupuncture and chiropractor sorted soon xx
  • 12 weeks today and first scan tomorrow eeek
  • Hi Pink!

    Hope your scan goes well tomorrow, let us know how you get on :)

    I was 12 weeks yesterday and my first scan isn't until Friday! I can't wait though very nervous xx

    Good luck Pink!

    Are you still on holiday clarabell? Good luck for Friday!

    My scan is 4 weeks away, :rotfl:this pregnancy is dragging! I'm back to work this week and I'm dreading it, I do feel a million times better but my nausea is constant, I don't think I can keep it secret for much longer.
