    yeah my reports are finished. My sore throat has almost gone and left me with a head cold. I can cope with that, hopefully it will be gone in a few days. Hope everyone is doing well.

    Hey to all my belly friends

    Airline -=- Gotta love ms.. Its such an ugly time for such a celebrative success isnt it! Everyone is different but if I can offer any hope I picked up "junket tablets" from the dessert isle at the shops and just sucked on them.. They taste awful.. like lumps of salt and cornstarch.. But they actually do work (at least they did for me..) Others Ive heard are powerade, ginger ale and dry crackers.. If all else fails.. I hope it passes soon for you anyway.. Kepp you head up (or down) and it wil pass! Well done for managing to get past Indian food without spilling the news HAHA! I would have barfed at the sight of it! As for the pool well i guess its the best time of year for it.. Being 1000 degrees out there and all

    Greenslw -=- Maternity pads are scary.. But if all gos well with the birth it actually isnt that bad.. As hard as that is to believe. If you end up tearing the hardesr part is sitting down the first few days LOL... I felt like I was perched on a barbed wire fence..

    Saph -=- Headcolds suck during pregnancy.. I had one combined with my morning sickness at around 7 weeks.. and just couldnt take care of my 2yo properly between throwing up and the whole death feeling it brought me lol.. Luckily I have a wonderful GF up the rd who took us both in and helped me out with everything until Dh got home from work during the day. Hope you feel better soon!

    AFM -=- DH and his friend have just gone down to cold rock for me.. I have a white chocolate freddo frog and oreo ice cream on order! mmmm lol. The house is clean.. My son is asleep.. It just finished thunderstorming and despite the heat Im feeling quite good atm.. I just know the dream house is around the corner- thanx and Ive promised myself we are going to have a great christmas no matter where we are... Planning to buy plenty of rock fruit and make a big roast for the day!

    there isnt realy any big news to report other then jelly bean is starting to kick REALLY HARD

    Hope to hear from you all soon and everyone is having a nice relaxing weekend

    Hi ladies,

    I am a little overwhelmed at how many people are on this forum, so I think it will take me a little while to catch up with you all. So I apologise to those of you I havent mentioned.

    Londonmiss: Great idea with the questions, I was very interested in the answers.

    Airline: Have just read back through some past posts to catch up with your story. How frustrating for you. The HCG levels sound really good, surely they wouldn’t be rising if bub wasn’t growing. Good luck with your scan next week. For the last two weeks I havent stopped burping!! It is driving me crazy. I read your post about the ginger and I had some today, it really is amazing stuff.

    Kyrawolf: Thankyou for telling me your story, it helps to know someone else has experienced the same situation. I hope your house hunting will be at an end soon. It is very annoying that most rental agreements have the no pets rule.

    Boc: I don’t mind you asking at all. It was brownish. I ended up calling the nurse this morning and she basically told me the same as what you did. It is completely normal and I should only start worrying if it is bright red. I am sorry to hear about your step daughter’s concert. I hope you still had a good birthday weekend though.

    Grub- Thank you for the welcome. I found what you said about your ovaries quite interesting, every now and then I get a stabbing pain on the right, from what you have said I am thinking it must be from the ivf.

    Bella- I know I don’t know you, but I thought I would pass on my congratulations also. I love hearing the success stories.

    AFM: I am still having some bleeding if you call it that. It is more like brown discharge sorry again. I know I was told it was normal but I can't help worrying. I was crying all last night thinking it was all over once again. I called the nurse and she wasn't concerned at all, didn't even want to do another blood test. So I am trying not to worry too much and praying that it won't turn into anything more.

    I hope all you lovely ladies have a wonderful week, take care.

    Hello all. How are you all travelling?

    How's the MS Airline? I was sat on the tram this afternoon and a chain smoker got on, oh my goodness, I nearly vomited on his shoes... it was REVOLTING. I do not get people who smoke. I can think of much better ways to burn money and the smell. Oh my Lord. I had to lay down for ten mins when I got home to stop myself being sick... yuk.

    Hi SonyaLouise. Welcome. I get niggling pains now and again, esp when I sneeze. I was in terrible pain yesterday .... **TMI** I have no idea what I ate, but I must have farted (proper mens drunk too much beer farts) about 50 times yesterday. Thank God, DH found it funny although he did look a little bit alarmed at points when I sounded more like a pregnant hippo than his previously well behaved wife!!! oh I will never live this down!!

    Kyra - I totally feel for you. We have a customs dog, and have taken the decision not to 'tell' our landlords. I figure the amount of money we pay them per month, and the fact that I will make good any damage = none of their business. A child is going to make way more damage than one soppy labrador! OMG - I didn't realise white chocolate freddos existed. And more to the point where can I get one?!

    Grub - how you doing? I'm wondering if you need a big ol cork to keep everything ok until DH gets home... I'm worried about your poor mother in law's hearing when he does how you feeling? What are you up to? I'm completely fascinated and outreagously nosy as you can tell, you're the first person I know to give birth now I'm pregnant and properly listening... iykwim!

    hope you are all well x
