edd 18th dec, so xmas baby!!

has any of you still been able to lose weight? ive still about 4 stone to get to target and would love to lose a bit more while still being preg?
 
Hey missmarshmallow!

Congratulations!!! My EDD is 18th december too! and i have 3-4 stone to reach my target! :)

Xmas baby is exciting isn't it :)
 
I am scared as I might have to up my antidepressant as my OCD/depression has got worse of the last few days, so scared as I worry as it will kill the baby :(

I'm so sorry bunny :hug99: I empathize with you with the depression :( I don't have OCD but i do get terrible panic attacks which might be a big problem with going to hospital etc.

Do you have help from the mental health team? If you don't maybe ask your doctor to refer you, if you are maybe ask them for advice to cope.
When i spoke to the doc today he said that anti depressants are ok but make sure you check with them first. Which was a bit of a relief, i stopped taking them a while ago (2 monthish) but quite often have dramatic lows after an ok mood for a few months...i'll just have to keep an eye on it.

If you are feeling worried talk to your doctor/midwife/mental health worker.... Be ok bunny, thinking of you :hug99:
 
bunny i hope your okay. Dont let your worry of baby add to your already mounted worry honey. they wouldnt allow you to take anything harmful to bubs, your health is upmost importance to be a healthy home for baby in first place.

I'm sure your cpn will help you with coping :) I'm sure a lot of women who are pregnant need a bit of support & help- i know i will be asking for it if i feel myself slipping- That's what they're there for :) x
 
All that matters is that you are happy & your baby is healthy- sod everyone else :D

There's nothing wrong with asking for help- that's being strong & managing the fact that you need a little helping hand...everyone needs support every now and then, you're not weak because of it x
 
somthing to make you all chuckle.. i bought a pair of size 10 linen maternity trousers from next back in jan, as i was ordering online and hate paying postage for just one thing. The size 10 maternity jeans i bought were SO baggy around my arse and legs, that i concidered sending back for an 8 but was convinced somthing wasnt right and as i needed to wear them that night, i kept them. now.. they fit real nice now, they arnt tight at all, but they no longer are baggy, so im under no illusion that my bum and legs must have taken some flack. however, at the time i recieved the linens, i tryed them on and remember thinking 'these wont make it'.. pulling at the waste on the last button and thinking, they'd be fine for now, but no way. Luckily i kept the tags on but didnt return just in case (and out of lazyness) .. yesterday, on my day off was the first proper hot day here.. crap i thought, i only ahve leggings or jeans! .. no no i pulled out my linens as i decided it was OK, despite being april it was over 22*! so, i start putting them on.. and for a second thought, oh bloody hell iv picked up my old pair. (i have exactly the same linen, i bought last summer.. in a size 10).. no no.. these were my maternity ones, i just couldnt get them over my ass, and when i did they certainly werent comfortable.

... slightly miffed, i march down to next to swap for a 12... but realise that, nope they wont do either.. i now have some size 14's!!! LOL i couldnt believe it! i wasnt overly fussed, as id rather they just fit nice and be loose so i dont get hot, but the hot but very gay/camp bloke made a mistake and in front of a very big que was like ' so you want them in a size 10 yeah?' at which i had to reply.. no thanks.. i need to swap the 10's for the 14s...

Hello and congratulations, there must be something in the air lol, i'm also due Dec but the 4th, also got lots more weight to loose so will be carrying on with SW as long as the nausea doesn't ruin it and craving of course lol x


Grumbletumble - told my boss straight away so he can sort out my work place assessment and order some maternity uniform(though union rep informs me they have stopped doing it, if thats the case they can give me some money for suitable work clothing then lol!) and also to make him away i may be hormonal and grumpy ha ha!

Fern xx if only i could fit into size 14 never mind a 10 ;),bet it as a shock for you though! Think i'll be living in leggings all summer!

Bunnylovesalan - don't forget we are all here for you too , hope you're ok xx
 
This threads gettin well popular lol!!

Hope ur ok bunny! X

Well this is gonna be a long month! We are gonna try as of 16th may as I get all my company I work for benefits n statutory maternity leave n when on maternity can be entitle to working tax credits.

Well as I'm not on the pill we gave condoms ago. Urgh! One thing we said was omg is this what it was like as a teen?! It's crap! So we didn't do much!

But oh wants to Do things without any contraception and if I fall pg then so be it.... As much as I'm tempted as I so can't wait to be expecting but I kno we be better off if we wait it's only a month!

Start weight: 14s 7lb Current weight: 13s 13lb Total loss: 8lb

Haha sounds like a familar story, my OH hated having to wear them so we gave up and 2 mths later BFP! Is there ever a right time to get pregnant? lol x
 
I think there isn't a perfect time to get preg lol but I kno we wud be that bit more financially better off. Plus if I conceive now it be due near my ds birthday lol 2 kids same birthday month would equal skint!! Lol especially as it would be close to Xmas too lmao!!! Toys EVERYWHERE!! Lmao!

Think the pill must be leaving my body now... Feel sick and all over the place today :/ hormones make unwell lol roll on gettin my natural system again!!!

Just a quick question... U might think I'm mad but did anyone try certain methods to naturaly conceive a certain gender? I was lookin out of curiosity! U see I have a son and so does oh. We would love a girl as we don't have one but a healthy non the less is still a blessing and a loved baby. Just wondered if anyone tried n succeeded. I do laugh at the Chinese calendar method as it would of meant my son was a girl lol
