12-24 weeks pregnant (part 3)

My goodness I can't keep up.

I regularly get headaches and I wouldn't before pg. Makes work a stinker. I either hope it's busy so time goes but then it seem worse when I stop or that it's quiet so I can get away with being less than on form. For the first time in month I am sleeping for 9 hours a night with only one loo trip. From the start of pg my sleep has been really light and waking frequently. Hoping I can sleep in tomorrow.

Definitely artly related to dehydration. I drink a lot more now. Also related to how tired I am. Nausea related to tried and'or hungry but hs eased off.

Getting a funny pain on sneezing which is an ache down my left side from my belly to my groin. Can also get the same on turning over in bed too quickly. Both times it scares the cr*p out of me that I've injured myself/the baby.

Ah well, another worry to addd to the list.

On a lovely note I bumped into an old colleague. When I last saw her in 2011 she was due to be going off on mat leave in very early 2012 with her first baby at 40 due to IVF as she had cancer treatment. Seeing her today she has a lovely two year old and number 2 is due in August! So glad it all worked out in the end as she naturally felt it was never going to at one point :j

Yep headache here as well and one ear blocked so I assume I am getting a cold of some sort.

I cry at a lot of things at the moment. Last night I was reading the Mothercare catalogue and came across the hospital bag list page and it suddenly dawned on me that I am going to be going to hospital and bringing home another person...awesome! A week today until my scan...so excited!

Scotsbride good luck on the next thread

For anyone thinking of a tidy up 'down below' before giving birth, if you're not used to waxing definitely DONT do it!!! I went today after not being done for 3 months as I didn't go after I found out I was pregnant until I got into second trimester.

OMG it hurt!!! I normally don't even flinch but today the therapist was surprised at my reaction to it all! I actually wanted to swear it was that bad!

Here's hoping it's not so bad in 5 weeks time!!!!

I second this!
I had my first bikini wax (Californian) since b4 I was pregnant & it was soooo sore!
I took a paracetamol b4 I went but it didn't help at all
The therapist did say it would be sore because blood flow is different & hair is more coarse in pregnancy. I am currently smothered in sudo cream, lying on the sofa in my pjs

Lol credit crunch. Mine was a combination of length of time, length of hair, and pregnancy I think. Ouch ouch ouch! I was going to take painkillers beforehand but didn't bother. Just went out a walk with hubby and even the legs weed till hurting with every step! I'm off to smother them I some lovely body lotion and get the pjs on too. Hope you feel better tomorrow!

You too mrs C!
Glad I did it though, hopefully the next one will be easier :beer:
