Just need to get this out. I dont mean to sound ungrateful & I know how lucky I am to be pg (fingers crossed) with a healthy baby...

BUT...

Why did the sickness in evening/nights have to come back?
Why do I have wake up sometimes with cramps in my legs?
Why does my heartburn have to be so bad it stops me sleeping/feels like its burning a hole in my windpipe?
Why do I wake up 3 times a night to pee?
Why do I get sharp pains in my bump?
Why do I feel so fat?
Why do I feel like a big angry bear all the time?
Why is the house a total shit tip and yet I do nothing about it?
Why am I so tired all the time & yet cant sleep until 1 or 2am???
Why do I leak wee when I sneeze?
Why do I fart without realising its about to happen lol?



Ah now iv got that off my chest..... I'm away to get some ice cream
I shall come back to this post in a years time if the ridiculous idea to ttc again ever enters my head!

LOL Snoop! Big hugs hun, just think, only eight weeks to go..........

MAndy xx

Aw hun I remember all of those things very well (apart from the sickness - I was blessed never to feel/be sick in either pregnancies).

Me and Lise (Mario) used to have a mantra of 'notlongnotlongnotlongnotlongnotlonglongnotlongnotlong' and that used to help slightly

With regards to the cramping, eating a banana at night helps (something to do potassium maybe?)

I also remember the sneezing and leaking, I panicked thinking it was going to happen after Dexter was born but thankfully it doesn't

Hope you enjoy your icecream x

Tonic water is good for cramps too. Its the quinine (sp) in it. I remember having really bad cramp in my leg one night it felt like my muscle had ripped..it was so painful. I actually couldn't walk for a good week. Anyhoo, the tonic water really helped. And Grandma wildes ginger biccies for the sickness. Also...but talk to a med professional first, but vit B6 is apparently good for morning/evening sickness

I dont think ive ever tasted tonic water, does sit taste of anything? I associate it with people drinking gin, which I dont like. Maybe i'l try a glass of tonic and a banana for supper some night and see. Might google leg cramps too, I never realised they were common in pg. I literally wake up mid scream some nights and have to stretch myself half in tears trying to get up to pee at same time. I swear one night im gona end up stuck in bed and just have to pee myself lol. (Im laughing but I actually fear it wil happen one night!)

I'l look into B6 too. I stopped taking multi vitamins months ago as they were making me feel sick or id puke them up anyway so didnt see point in taking them. Prob not the most sensible idea!

I have nothing useful to add, except that when i was pregnant with Noah, every time I farted it sounded like a duck quacking.

Cuddling with my OH, "quack!"

Supermarket queue, "Quack!"

Teaching a lesson, "QUACK, QUAAACK!"

Sounded like I was constantly being attacked by ducks.

Chin up chicken, just a few more weeks to go and soon you'll be cuddling your little bubba and trying to get pg again within a week

It mostly helped because it meant someone was listening and gave a damn about how fed up we were. So from me with love and affection..

LOL at the duck farts! Thats cheered me up a bit Havent randomly farted in public yet but honestly at home sometimes I stand up and PARPPPP . Id no idea it was about to happen!

Thanks Mario. one min it seems to be going too fast and the next min it cant come quick enough. Everyone says i'l push harder to find out what sex it is... I think I'l be pushing harder to know that all this will go away once baby pops out! And then i'l be moaning im tired/have a sore noo/ sore boobs

Give me a year and I promise i'l be back to normal

And Kat - No f-ing way will I be trying to get pg again! Seriously send the men in white coats if I ever consider it! x

ahhhh snoopy I know exactlyy how you feel.

But Im trying to look on the bright side and enjoy the end, because I know how much I'm going to want to pop the baby back in my belly once he's here lol. (you know the missing being pregnant feeling and the reality that you now have to share that special bond with other people... not all the bad stuff!)

Lol, poor you.I'm not looking forward to that stage. I don't know why but it feels like you've been pregnant forever

I can only say that I feel your pain and can I add 'heartburn from hell' to the list? x

Hope you're feeling better after a good ol' rant! I'm feeling your pain hun, seriously!

The leg cramps have been so bad I've woken crying before now and having to pee lots in the middle night - I've threatened to set up camp next to the bathroom as I'm fed up of getting up all the time!

What is your due date? I'm due on the 23rd Dec.

Hoorah that the end is in sight, will be here before you know it and all of this will be forgotten (from what I've been told)

Take it easy x

oh god, i totally forgot about these joys of pregnancy! not long to go though and your body will be your own again!
