Mommies - April 2014

so, i finally got to buy something blue.

Good morning ladies,

happy friday

Jay, hope you feel much better today.
and i am taking folic acid and PregOmega Plus (available at clicks and discem) since before my pregnancy. after my miscarriage, dr told me not to stop taking the supplements

Wina, nice to hear from you again. and when you reply you can see the previous 10 posts below, so i quicly read throug it as i reply.

Makat, enjoy your scan - it will be soooo special.
its terrible having such a long meeting on a friday

Sterretjie, hope that your MS fades away completely very soon

Goggatjies, well done with the baking. and i take my hat off to you for the cycling.
enjoy your family weekend

AFM I've been to a ladies night function last night. it was so much fun, but i must have eaten something that baba didn't like. when i got home I was feeling so extremele bad with MS and hectic cramping.
luckily i feel much better today, still a bit of cramping.
and as usual for me, i am still soooooo tired, and it feels like its getting worst every day

hope everyone has a very nice weekend

Good Morning

I hope all are doing good, and that you had a good nights rest.

Jay - I hope you are feeling better this morning!
With regards to supplements, I take folic acid, multivitamin, calcuim & magnesuim, and a vitamin B - I take a product called Nutrilite, not available in the shops and only available through an agent.
An I am sure it is because of this supplements that I am not as sick with MS as with the other kids. These supplements have no perservatives. And I have lots more energy, With my other kids I was so tired the first few weeks. And I am not tired at all during the day. I do go to bed early, but I do not need that 10 min power nap during the day.

Wina - I write everything down. Otherwise I do not remember. You are lucky to have 2 computer screens.

Makatk - Congrats on the clean audit, can not wait to hear about the scan. And good luck with the 3 hour interview.

Sterretjie - Hi, yes I do still cycle, I am doing the 94.7 mtb race on the 10th Nov, so I am still getting ready for that. But I am sure after that I will take it a bit slower on the cycling, But it is a sport I love.

Stella - How are you doing, still tired? How is the shopping going??

MommyMe - I do not use any cream. Got stretch marks with the other 2 kids, so I am not going to worry about it with the 3rd one.

If I missed any one - Sorry.
I hope you are all doing well

I am doing fine, So glad it is friday. Did some baking yesterday for the weekend, flapjacks, scones, Capacinno Muffins and some savoury muffins. It is our annual weekend away with the family. And each child get a chance the make a meal, and mine is breakfast tomorrow morning. Also bought strawberries and cream (YUM). Sorry Wina
Still thinking about telling the family over the weekend - but will see what happens

Have a great day

Hi Ladies
Had a crappy afternoon, before i went home i threw up so bad all the food i have had , and still felt sick when i got home, i did try to have rooibos, ginger and lemon tea, even now i feel naseous as if i am going to throw, am scared to eat now. I thought ms was gone, this is just the beggining. And i stay tired all the time, i wish i was a home stay mom

Steretjie, i couldn't eat anything last night even my favourate zinger wings

Ladies have an awesome day, i can't even do personals the way i am feeling, i wish i could be home

Morning Ladies

It's the weekend

Makatk - all the best for your scan and for the career oath interview!!!! Sh!t 3 hours??? On a Friday???

MommyMe - have your tried Stoney Ginger Beer or Lemon Twist? I must say when I feel "naar" I either have one of the two mentioned above or flavoured milk (Sterri Stumpie). I find that I am mostly "naar" in the morning and then when I am hungry.

StellaK - hope the tiredness will disappear soon.

Jay- hope you got you Zinger Wings!!!!

Goggatjie - well done on the cycling - I started off so nicely but loss the energy to actually get on the bike / treadmill

Wina - hope the MS is finally disappearing!!!

To any one else I am missing - hope you are also well!!!

AFM - MS is coming and going - some days are better than others. Last night I was so tired - I fell asleep before 20:30 (I think I even fell asleep before my daughter).

I have used Happy Event with my first pregnancy but I still got stretch marks - now I am using Bio Oil.

You must have all have a stunning day and a great weekend!!!!

Thanks ladies for the well wishes, It was a clean audit with no major findings happy dancing.I was sooooo tired I collapsed on my bed after taking the shower at 18:00...guess what? only woke up now, 4hrs later

@Wina I set this page as my favourite on my computer, I don't logoff after use I just close the page, its quicker when I come back because one click takes me straight to the page.I also bookmarked it on my phone, so one click as well I can access it whenever and wherever I am. I get updates on my Email everytime there is a new response on one of the topics I subscribed to

Few hours to my scan yay *jumping up and down* Pity I will only be free after 14:00.Having a career oath interview for 3hrs :angry:wondering if my preggy memory will keep me going for that long.

Good night and good morning since most of you will read this post tomorrow

Hello every one

How do you guys do it, respond to each post like that???? I would need to log onto this site after each one to be able to comment

Ok lets try:
@Jay my feet are swelling too and if I get cravings I have to go buy myself but walking is such a chore as I am exhausted (and that is too mild a word)!!!
I have also just used folic acid as the vitamins made me sick.

@StellaK I know about that naps lunch time, they are heaven

@Mommyme I struggle with drinking water too, and I really love or used to love drinking water. I'm not using anything for stretch marks. Should I (thinking face). And not fair can we not mention food because I crave everything i see. I want jelly now too.

@Goggatjies Cycling really???? I envy you.

@Makatk I hope the audit went well and its so much closer to your scan for tomorrow....

Ok I have two computer screens so I replied on all the comments I received today.... LOL (did I cheat?)

I feel like my insides are getting to small... I have this pressure inside my tummy and I'm not sure why.... I havent had MS once today (doing a happy dance)

Hope everyone on this chat has good days ahead.
