I haven't got nausea yet *touch wood* but last time I suffered terriably with it and ginger helped me (ginger ale, ginger biscuits) also try the travel sickness bands you can purchase them in your local pharmacy!

I haven't had any sickness this time either. With my daughter I was very sick right from 8 weeks till delivery :( very bad heartburn this time though
 
I'm 38 weeks pregnant today!! Can't believe my due date is only 2 weeks away, still doesn't seem real, I'm gonna be a mother of two!!! Not had an signs yet really, been having braxton hicks for weeks but they have got a little stronger I think but then I may be imagining it!!! I'm superduper knackered though, Freddie's in nursery for 6 hours tomorrow do looking forward to resting a bit & may do some batch cooking for the freezer if I can be bothered!xx

how exciting..two weeks till you meet your baby....im 21 weeks and it seems a life time away until im due!!

take the time now to sleep for these two weeks is my advice especially if you have a toddler at home as well.. you can get yourself some sleep reserves in!!

I'm 10 weeks and throwing up once a day. I'm not following SW at all but hopefully will once my stomach goes back to normal
 
Hi ladies...I've been a hoverer on this site for a long time, I've posted a few times but never really got involved. I've done lots of diets in my time and last year I managed to lose 4 stone using slimfast and eating very healthily as well as excercising a lot.

I've discovered that I'm expecting number 4. Wasn't planned but my partner is over the moon, I'm getting used to the idea more and more each day. It's early days and I'm sure when I see the little one for the first time when I have a scan tomorrow it will be more real....

Anyway...as I say I lost 4stone last year. I met my new partner and gained around 7lb through going out and just enjoying ourselves. The diet went out of the window and now I'm Keith Cheggers I've braved the scales and I'm a stone heavier than I was when I met him. I really don't want to become a big whale in this pregnancy, I have big birth weight babies so really want to be careful what I eat. sooooooooo I'm thinking of joining SW next week when all the clubs are back to normal... I've not read back in previous posts so excuse if you're going to be repeating yourselves, does the eating plan work as it would if you wasn't pregnant?

Congrats and good luck for your scan tomorrow, I agree it never seems real until the scan!! They recommend you do extra easy plan and you get an extra healthy extra a and b, you should ask your consultant for a pregnancy leaflet when you join xx

Thank you. yes it certainly does, it's for that reason we are having a private scan. I'm only about 8wks and it's my partners first, he's very excited and I'm just going through the motions as I've done it a few times before lol. I probably sound an ole misery guts, I'm not I'm just dreading the weight gain ;-)

I had really bad nausea and sickness with Charles right through and especially at the end it was direr nothing stayed down. The midwifes were like 'have bland food' I did it's brought up in the bowl next to you ;) I also brought up all fluids as well! I had extremely bad heart burn and have a hatred for gaviston even now. My heartburn at present is a niggle but something that is not to bad luckily.
