    Hello lovelies,

    Well MS kicked in this morning only neausea though have not actually started throwing up (it's kind of wierd feeling happy about feeling sick hu?). Had to make a mad dash to the shop for a bottle of ginger beer, will get the Blackmores MS tablets when I can get to a chemist.

    I was chuckling to myself this morning. I wake up and the first thing I do is check that I still have my pg boobies. I was laughing that at 38weeks I'll be waddling to the loo for the 10th time that night remembering how I use to have to check my boobs to reassure myself I was pg

    Have a good day everyone.

    Hi Twinsiter sorry you are having computer difficulties, very frustrating.

    Just a quick question. Has anyone here been on Vitex if so have you been given advice as to whether to continue it or stop it when you fall pregnant? I'm really confused. I've been on it for ages and it has definitley helped. My doctor told me to continue it for the first 3 months but the internet information is very contradictory

    Hi Sunbeam

    Sweeting I am so sorry - it is so hard - but you have found the things to consider successes and positives in terms of what they aren't so congrats for being such an amazing woman. I had to change my post as I had replied to an earlier one and my response was no longer relevant. Love the strength you have - it will be there to love your forever baby.

    Much love

    Hey Tashybabe and LittleOnes

    We are such sisters under the skin Tashybabe - you should see the things my dentist says about the impact of my brain vortexing on my teeth - I can grind better than any skateboarder

    The best thing about pg and babies - it teaches you that control is a carefully fostered illusion and that the sooner we learn to embrace that concept the better!!!! The great thing about sleep deprivation is that the exhaustion lets you sleep soundly beyond your imagining - see it all works out in the end...

    Eventually too - those pg hormones will get you and they do a great job of making all the edges fuzzy and the brain.. the brain.. the brain.. yeah, like that... That's their job!!!

    LittleOnes - hope everything goes well with the induction and your birth - got the good vibes going for you and your little one!

    Much love to everyone - Cherished1, Sunny09, Tanya and our other wonderful women - trying to get ready for the National Day of Action for birth choices on Thursday - banners, banners - got to keep the good fight going!

    Much love
    Karen van

    sunbeam - yay for morning sickness! Hope it gets just severe enough to remind you each day that you're UTD and not so severe that it makes it impossible to relax! Sometimes supermarkets have the blackmores MS tabs too. Can't help with vitex from personal experience but I have heard people say that you shouldn't take it once you are pg.

    twinsis - good luck with your computer luv, they can suck... I spent years on computer support help desks and sometimes they're really impossible things!

    AFM - another day of horrid heat and tomorrow won't be much better. Next time I will absolutey not TTC during months that will result in a late summer/autumn baby!!! I don't care if that means it will take me an extra year to conceive the next baby! This one has found my cervix from the inside and my goodness, the pain is far worse than any contractions I remember experiencing. I just don't know how to relax through it and reduce the pain.
    Bring on tomorrow anyway - I'm going to my favourite restaurant for lunch with a girlfriend woohoo!

    I am sooo scared right now. When i went to the loo before bed last night i had brown blood (definately old brown no tinge of pink/red) and it is still just there this morning. I did not have this with my angel baby and i know they say old blood is fine but i'm SCARED!! Do you think i should call my doctor and leave a message for her?? I feel a bit silly cause theres probably nothing they can do either way but maybe she will want to test HCG or move my scan forward from next monday? Advice ladies?? This is awful and all i can think about is the worst outcome xx

    Sparkles hon I can see why you are scared but you are right, brown blood is very common (even red blood is) but the brown blood is generally nothing to worry about if you are concerned, which you are, surely your dr can at least test your HCG today and than again tomorrow or the next day to make sure it is rising, if it gets worse than you can also have a scan to ease your mind.

    Sunbeam YAY for MS even if it's mild and I'm always checking my boobies too heheh Sorry I can't help with your Vitex question

    Twin Sister great to hear from you, give us an update when you can

    LittleONes sos orry you are in pain hon and imagine the heat is unbearable! Hang in there, not long now.

    AFM my ms is 'very' mild, I really only feel tired but not so much that I cna't function and my boobs are still sore and I only feel mildly sick from time to time, so I think I'm jsut a lucky one and can stop worrying that something is wrong... Today I am 10 weeks 1 Day WOOHOOO 2 weeks until the NT Scan YAY

    sparkles - I'm with cherished, if it sets your mind at ease, give your doc a call as it's better for bub if you're relaxed.

    cherished - you're one lucky woman with mild ms!
