OK, am I a freak or has this happened to you???

[~Trish~]

Wow, thanks katabellah! What an awesome explanation! I am a bit of a "How do things work?" kinda girl and your answer was just what I needed LOL!

I will definitely try the relaxation technique you have described, I want to use that pram without feeling sick!

[sangie]

Trish I don't think your weird (well not about the pram anyway! LOL just kidding!). I had a similar thing in my first pg with DH's playstation. I think the constant movement on the screen made me feel nauseous and from then on the sight of the playstation made me feel ill. I'm over it now though!

Good luck with the relaxation technique, I hope it works for you. After all, a red P&T looks awesome and it's a shame to be feeling so badly about it.

At least it's only a pram I suppose hun. I couldn't look at another pregnant belly without feeling sick . I felt terrible the entire time my sis was staying with me through her preg, because I couldn't cope with remembering how uncomfortable I was......

It was from when i was 10-11 but i still can't look at sweetened condensed milk. If i look at some, smell some, anything. I want to puke.
So no, your not a freak

I feel physically ill when I look at our pram but that is becuase I am so incredibly nervous about having a baby...

You'll be fine!!!!

We have our new pram parked by the front door because there's nowhere else to put it. It's like this reminder every time I walk in the door about what's happening. This baby was unexpected so I freak out a little when I see it... I am bonded to this baby now but I am still not entirely sold on the concept, if you know what I mean!

[Macca79]

Sorry you feel crook. Hope it passes soon.

[angelaartsstudent]

Yeah I totally know what you mean.

It's like I know there is a baby in there, I can feel it fluttering around, but I have not connected to it like it is an actual real child yet...

Scary stuff...freaks me out!

The same thing happened to me with DS excersaucer. I bought one just as I was starting to get some really bad anxiety attacks and when I had an attack I would pop DS in it until the anxiety attack was over. Thankfully I got better after a few weeks but after that every time I looked at the excersaucer I started to feel really anxious and nauseous. I moved it downstairs to our computer room so I didn't have top look at it all the time. I can look at it just fine now but DS is much too big for it now.

Just as I found out I was pg with DS, I got a new Nokia phone. All was well for a couple of weeks, then MS set in...for a long time...now every time I hear that same ring tone, I feel queasy! 3.5 years on! My phone was run over about a year and a half ago, and as much as it was painful for all that involved...a part of me was relieved to move on from Nokia phones...I never admitted that to anyone until now!!

[~Trish~]

LOL that's hilarious Mayaness! You haven't given me any hope either . I still feel sick when I catch a glimpse of the pram, I'm OK once I start using it though. My mum took my boys out to the park and as soon as I saw her walking up the driveway and I saw the pram I felt sick! Also, if I see anything the same colour red (DH has a work t-shirt in the same colour) I feel sick, I feel like such a freak!

To this day i still cant stand the smell of a particular yellow toilet cleaner ( the type that hangs off the side of the toilet bowl )

When i was pregnant with DS#1 we visited my BIL and SIL and thats what they had in their toilet and i felt instantly ill. Since then i have come across the same cleaner and i still cant stand the smell of it ! YUK !

You are not strange - nor are you alone !!!
