Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi Guys, Woo hoo to the third trimester - really sorry I haven't been around to chat much lately! I happened to get back to catching up on the forums the day that Jess made her announcement so didn't want to go on about me and what I'd been up to since I'd been away. All is good with me. I have my next appointment next week, (28 week marker) when they'll do blood tests to check Iron levels etc... after that I think my appoints go to every two weeks. Baby seems to be doing fine - certainly kicking lots ;) We've not had such good luck on the hunting for a house side - we've lost out on a couple of houses - in Scotland we have a blind bid process which is crazy! We've now decided to rent for the next 6 months to at least have a base and get all of our belongings in one place - yay - no more living with parents/in-laws. I don't mean that horribly as they have been great, but we really need our own space, espec as at the moment Alistair is only back at weekends. Alistair is still due to go out and work in Baku where he'll be out there for 6 weeks then back in scotland for 2 weeks. That's going to be really tough, but when needs must and all that. Good to finally catch up with everyone! I still won't be able to come on here every day, but once we move in to our new place (in a couple of weeks) you won't be able to get rid of me :)

Marisol, that spreadsheet is fantastic -thanks! Disko, I can't remember if I commented on the pis you sent (like a week ago!), but if not, I think you look great and you've got a gorgeous family! My headache has finally disappeared (for today anyway). Thanks for the info. Kay, I've been taking tylenol (pretty much useless) and unfortunately, I've got a really strong aversion to coffee (and the smell of it). I was hoping that might ease up over the course of the pregnancy -since I love coffee, lattes, etc., but I can't even be near ppl who are drinking it right now without gagging. But, eating a small bit of really dark chocolate seems to take the edge off those headaches -yay caffeine!. Lou, glad to hear you'll have a place of your own soon -family is great, but it's nice having your own space.

I had the tailbone pain for a while then it went away. Sometimes it'd be a twinge when I'd put weight on a certain foot, sometimes it was so bad I could hardly walk, and getting in and out of bed, the car, and tub really sucked. It always seemed to act up anytime I tried to clean up the house. Good to hear you're doing well lou. I'm wondering if I'll have to go in twice a week now rather than just on Mondays. Hopefully my contractions won't start again when I go since they decided to show off last time when I went out of the house. Just gotta make it through tomorrow and then I have a day with a little freedom. My contractions have been pretty good today, just a few here and there. I have to take my meds again in an hour so I'll probably just lay down and go to sleep since they make me woozy and feel c___ppy. My sister brought me a book called running with scissors so maybe I'll get started on that. I used to be such a book worm but really don't have the time anymore.

OOoo my life is truly a soap opera- Well my ex tenants called me today about their sec deposit telling me .. Oo you can deduct the money to have the carpets cleaned ... umm what about the rest so I tell him all this stuff that was not up to standard and he is like it was that way when I rented it - Yeah OK! Then he tells me he will take me to small claims court for his deposit ... yet another headache- I really would never be a landlord again - this is disgusting so now I have to find a lawyer most likely ..and take the time to get all this paperwork together receipts etc I have been under extreme stress for like umm 3 months straight now. sometimes I just want to run away

I wouldn't stress it too much girl....people always threaten they'll go to court but most of the time realize it isn't even worth fighting over. If there were problems with the place when they moved in they should have stated it then and had you sign off that they wouldn't be responsible for it when they moved out. Ok wtf for some reason I keep getting all these pop-ups now on this website and I swear this one said something like amateur b___hes and I see a bunch of nearly naked blonds ew gross ANYWAY I wouldn't give it a second thought unless you get an actual summons. I called and talked to some of my employees and guess what? They picked up their checks....I KNEW she was lying because if I'm there in the morning I give them out. I also talked to the girl that works up front and she got chewed out today....it's just riduculous there. I'm qualified for a much better job, it's just that so few are available and even a 'better' job isn't actually going to pay me more than I make now. I'm hoping they keep me on bedrest the rest of my pregnancy so I'll qualify for disability and they still have to pay me......then I go on maternity leave and they still have to pay me......then they have to pay me for my banked vacation days.....then I get a new job :)

AHHHH WTF XRATED LESBIANS?? I don't get any freekin popups on any other website

OMG HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA I dont get any pop ups here except for the occasional netflix pop up haha your so funny! I know I can see them going to court behind this - well so be it - But I just hope I dont have to be the one to prove the window wasnt broken before hand cause how would I prove that? I certainly can prove it is broken now!

Go take some pictures then and give you some peace of mind. How much was their deposit? My pop up blocker is on and I always get these netflix and tribal fusion ones on here.....tonight I guess is amateur p___n pop up night.

Oh I took pics already - a whole camera full lol .. also they got a post card from their vet recently for 2 pets ... their lease only stated they could have one - they never told me they got a 2nd pet .. But I dont know what kind of animal it was - it is calling for a bordetella and DHLPP vaccines I wonder if that can be for like rabbits too or if it is just dogs or cats

Oh their deposit was $875

Hey ma I got the chart!!! How cute of you to do that ! That is really cool now we can all KIT :o) Thank You!

hahaha omg.... Kay you are too funny!!! I only get the netflix ones (always!!!) and then some other one but I can't remember right now. I'm being way too lazy by not being on my laptop... I'm just using my iPhone cuz I do t wanna go all the way downstairs to grab it!!! I still have the worst sinus headache and I couldn't breathe out of my nose all day so I couldn't handle it anymore and grabbed the afrin! I looked it up on safefetus dot com and it said I could use it a couple of times and I couldn't take it anymore so I used it and omg I can actually breathe again!!! I know that afrin is addicting cuz my dad got hooked on the shiz so I'm not gonna use it unless I feel like I'm suffocating again! But oh to breathe again is so nice ... Do any of you know if there is an antibiotic that my doc can prescribe for me? I so desperately want this to be gone by Easter !

Marisol, dear... Thank you for such sweet compliments... You made my evening! and wow thanks for the spreadsheet ... Its simply marvelous, darling, marvelous! hey dawnie!!! What 'green' thing did you eat or drink yesterday?
