Hi hun. How u getting on? How's your mil? Whens she starting her new treatment ?

Hey Frances, she is doing well, she has started her treatment already, she has another scan this week and then probably into the second round of her chemo again. They are looking to do this new 2 day treatment every 2 weeks, but I don't think they hold out much hope for her. We'll just have to wait and pray. She's still really optimistic though which is good.

 

[Dubchick81]

Oh well her optimism will get her far...

How's bean? Still making you oober ill? x

Hiya Frances, I'm grand, just sick and tired ha! The morning sickness is getting worse but I'm just getting used to carrying little bags everywhere with me lol. I'm so sick of what I'm eating too, I long to be back to my healthy ways but raw meat, veg and anything with a funny smell is a real no no to me at the minute. I'm really hoping come 12 weeks I'll be feeling better. I'm 9+1 at the minute, no dates for scan or anything yet though.

My wee DS is sick now too, he has a really bad cold and is feeling very sad in himself. Hoping he gets better soon and my DD doesn't catch it.

 

[MrsLmc]

9+1

So todays food wasn't great again. Thinking I should at least try and follow some type of plan. Maybe Simply filling with 90 weeklies or maybe slimming world. Don't know, I'm still so so nauseous I don't know if I can follow anything, but then is a sh!ty diet leading to an increase in the nausea?! Decisions decisions.......

Prob no help at all as I've never been where u are.but my advice for what it's worth is to eat healthy where possible. Like, as ur doing already, choose wholemeal/grain foods instead of white. Grill/bake instead if fry TRY choose fruit r veg for snacks in between meals... At least then ur getting good wholesome food in n it won't b so bad.

 

[Mrsm79]

I've got the perfect diet for you whilst you're feeling this rubbish, eat little and often, when you can and what you want!!!!


Consider yourself told

EXERCISE
Did a big long walk with mom today, about 10k, had my DD in the pram. Knackered now but really enjoyed in, such a lovely day.

Sick a few times today and really really tired but really enjoyed my walk with mom.
Belly seems to have popped today as well. Really early but I guess thats what happens on your third pregnancy. I didn't really show with the others till around 18-20 weeks. I AM GONNA BE HUGE!!!

 

[MrsLmc]

What a day, it has lashed the rain all day long. The river at the bottom of our road has burst its bands.

Today I've finally caught the cold the kids and hubby have. My throat is really dry and sore, my ears hurt too. I'm hoping I don't get the bad sinus headaches I got pregnant with my DS.

Today I spent most of my day in bed reading and chilling. Hubby told me to stay there as we weren't going anywhere and he'd watch and entertain the kids. Got up at 2p.m had a lovely long shower and now I'm watching t.v. I feel awful so will probably head back to bed soon lol. I am soooo lazy!!

Food today consisted mainly of cream crackers with calvita cheese and crackerbread with butter. I'm just not fancying anything else. Hubby I think is a little worried because I'm dizzy alot but I've told him it'll pass and I'm happy. I'm drinking plenty and just trying to eat what I can keep down.

My belly has definately popped. I'll post a picture in a wee while. Anyone had 3 kids that might read this, did you find your belly pop really early with the third?? xx
