January 2013 - Baby/Mommy Club!

Hi Ladies

Everyone have a good weekend? We're settling into our new home & loving it... Can't start getting baby boy's half of the room ready...

Just got back from the airport hubby is off again, only a week this time, but it seems more as he's going so far (Canada this time).

This may be a bit TMI, so if you're sensitive don't read!
I think i've developed piles/heamorrhoids (sp), not sure what the difference is but it's awful and not sure what to do about it.... I didn't get them the first time round, but in hospital they did give me a suppository & cream in case i developed them... Not sure if i should start using it? Anyone else suffer? If so, what do you do?

Anyways, took this pic of my 22 week bump last night!

Have a great week everyone!

Yes Nadia...I love just eating veggies with no salt, sometimes with a little butter.
I still have the "accessive saliva thing" going on and in order for me to not spit the whole day, I snack. Sometimes I just eat dry cornflakes or weetbix... I cant get anything sweet down so no chips, chocs or even biscuits and cakes for me...
It seems that Im eating much more healthier than before I fell pregnant...which is a good thing...
I do eat nuts sometimes but cheese does not agree with my system at the moment, lol.
I'm just glad I'm eating now cos a few weeks ago it was absolutely nothing

I'm still trying to figure out where you packed on the 10kg??? LOL

Cherikey - Must be the angle of the camera LOL, i'm almost too embarrased to tell, but i've gained 10kg's already.

Juwayraj - Glad you feel better, what do you snack during the day? Doc said its good to snack nuts and cheese (high protein)
I've been eating sweet potato like you've been eating mielies. But i must say, i've been eating alot of "slap mielie pap" with butter and suger YUM!!!

Hi everybody,

Cute scan pics Snoekie and Nadia!! The babies are growing well.

@Nadia: Your bump is also quite nice!

@Cherikey: Congrats on team BLUE

AFM:
My next doc appt is only the 17th of September
I'm feeling a whole lot better and got my appetite back although I have the occasional MS and still feeling nauseous ALL THE TIME!
I snack the whole day just to not feel so terrible.
A few weeks ago I was eating peanut butter with a spoon, after that it was hands full of salt for the nausea and now I'm eating 1 cucumber per day with loads of lettuce. Had to move away from the salt as it's not good for me and baby and because my tongue was sooooo sore from it...lol. Ooh...and I love mielies...whole kernels, frozen ones and corn on the cob!!

What are you ladies eating?

Wow Nadia, your bump has really popped out nicely!

How have you managed to keep the rest of your body so skinny?

AWESOME pics Nadia!!!

Your bump looks perfect! Am so envious!

And the little girl's face is too adorable hey!!

Glad to hear all is well!
