I'm counting down the minutes! Had a really horrible dream last night though which made me a bit panicky. One of the things I have noticed is really vivid dreams!

Cooling pillow was a godsend again last night and even with my 3.5 hour nap yesterday afternoon I managed to sleep 7 hours solid through the night

Went back off to work this morning as had a meeting with a new client so Director wanted me there. He had to drop me off at home on the way past though, I felt so poorly and my temperature had gone back up - mixed with the everytime I eat sickness is really not good. I had an appointment at the Doctors this afternoon but they have accidentally booked me in with the nurse instead so I'm seeing the Doc tomorrow lunchtime instead. I think I might have a water infection which isn't very pleasant so hopefully they can do something about that!

My sister says sickness is a sign of a healthy baby. Though again I never had sickness with my boy... She had a girl though. I place a bet its a girl xx

Funnily enough Monz, everyone I know who has had bad morning sickness has had a girl!

The psychic that told me I would get pregnant in July said that it would be a boy so I'm sticking with that for now as I don't have any feelings either way yet! x

Re. the 'morning' sickness, and I speak as one who had to get off a tube to vomit into a bin, I found ginger helped enormously - ginger ale, tea or good ginger biscuits with the pieces of ginger in them though gingernuts were fine at a pinch. Worth a try if you don't hate the taste?

The only thing that helped my morning sickness was salt and vinegar pringles. Did not help the weight gain though :rotfl:

I did try ginger nuts joey, but ginger is not my favourite flavour at the best of times so didn't go that well. Am going to try ginger ale though as I don't mind that sometimes.

Mints seem to be the one thing that is helping me at the moment! I've constantly got a polo or mighty mint on the go. Isn't stopping the vomiting but am feeling slightly less nauseous whilst I have one....soon comes back though!

My mom came round this afternoon and went off to do a food shop for me as I'm not keen on food smells in shops at the moment. I ended up going back into work as there were a few issues whilst I was at home - a couple of short meetings and all is well for now. I'll be doing reduced hours for the rest of this week....well that's the plan anyway!

Oh Kirsty, hope the sickness eases soon.

I really don't miss the enhanced sense of smell during pregnancy - food smells in the street were making me boak at one point. _pale_

The only thing pregnancy did was put me off tomatoes like actually gave me the boke,,, wish it was chips or something. Strange thing my boy cant stand tomatoes and I went back to lovig them since he was born lol

my mum hates fizzy drinks and only drinks water but preg with me drank by gallon until had me n i cant drink water only fizzy drinks haha so strange xx
