This is only my 2nd weekend being pg and im already feeling a bit restless ....

Usually id have a cpl drinks and watch tv/dvd with stuart, or have a friend round for cpl drinks and thats obviously out now. I can still have friends round but most dont know im pg and would guess in a nano second if I didnt drink. I also feel like going on the town, which is stupid as I only do that about 3 times a year anyway!

Im tired, but not so tired I can fall asleep at 8pm, but yet not energetic enough to sort out the shit tip that has became my house in the last few weeks. No energy to play the wii either. If it wasnt for the internet I think I would go insane being pg. Have harry Potter dvd to watch tonight which is majorly exciting for me , also i'l prob get back into reading as did alot of that last time, oh and eating's fast becoming a hobby

What did you all do at the weekend/evenings when pg? Did you keep your social life up the whole way through? From memory last time from 28 wks onwards going out for meals wasnt even that appealing, I didnt have room to eat much and generally ended up with heartburn, I also have a fear of the cinema when pg as went to see Borat at 39wks pg and knocked a litre of coke over a poor guy beside me with my bump (it was actually my ass but shhhh! )

To be honest I was so tired and sick most of the way through and in so much pain later on I slept a lot (for some reason I could sleep in the day although I couldn't at night). I spent much of my time curled up in bed reading other than that which is what I did a lot of anyway. Hope you find something to occupy you

My oh really enjoyed my pregnancy. Not only did I drive us to really cool out of town restaurants and save us taxi money. But I also didn't drink so saved us a fortune on the bill. Must admit we really went out loads as we thought do it now as we won't when lo arrives!
Don't know what else to suggest snoops!
Maybe picnics and early nights?

I sympathise as i did find this hard as it felt like all the things i usually liked doing were no longer options!! I would go for eating, dvds, eating, reading, eating, internet, eating and maybe risk the cinema. Maybe you could treat yourself to something nice with all the money you are saving from drinks/going out etc xx

Im sure in a week or 2 the tiredness will kick in and i'l be curled up in bed early.

With Caitlin I worked full time, including Saturdays so was always wrecked. Also I didnt find out until nearly 6 weeks so sickness kicked in nearly immediately.

I dont really miss alcohol/going out... I think its just because you cant if you know what I mean. Hopefully when the weather picks up again we can fill the weekends with trips to beach/zoo that will tire me out.

Oh and baths, just remembered how good baths are when pg

Kate I think I will be treating myself to new clothes! I was getting excited in the maternity department of new look today at how comfy all the clothes looked

I must just be boring lol... I've never really been one for drinking anyway, so most of my evenings are taken up by flicking between here, facebook and the tv. We have been out for dinner a few times and we do occasionally go and visit family but other than that just the above.

God I sound about 90 lol! XX

I'd forgotten about baths. I spent half my time in them by the end as they stopped the aching but had real issues getting out. Could you treat yourself to a spa treatment or something like that

I'm currently at the stage of sleeping all the time! I know what you mean though about going out with friends when you can't drink and they don't know. I went out with my friends last Saturday, I was driving so had an excuse but one of friends wasn't drinking and we're all expecting an announcement soon now

well get the sleep while you can as i only got a couple of hours last night...

me and russ are boring we dont go out wvery often anyway and we not been drinking much in past 3 yrs with ttc, so nothing changed for us.

but have to say i had a bubble bath yesterday with toffee apple candles, was lovely, i was very relaxed, thinking about doing it again today

monopoly??

twister before you can't bend over anymore?

tend to the garden () before you can't see it anymore?

I always enjoy eating!

To be fair i was that tired from working i just chilled out, i did go for meals cinema, long walks with the dog , shopping for baby stuff visiting fam and friends and i use to go the casino alot (i use to play in £20 poker tournements). I work shifts too so most weekends i would work lol.

Congrats on pregnancy anyway.

hahahahahaha classy

what you need to do....is get REALLY obsessive about something. for example, for a month of my life i watched nothing but scrubs. i also watched the entire 1st season of ice road truckers when elijah was tiny.

my favourite of recent times though was that month we were trapped indoors last year (snnnnnnnnnow) and i watched seasons 1-9 of roseanne.....the whole lot in a row it was amazing, i wish i could relive it but i have to wait til i forget the stories

any spare time I get I'm just sleeping but i've been pretty tied :/ and eating is out of the question because it all makes me feel sick. when its warmer I'll be swimming though which will be soooo nice!
