Hello

I totally agree with you Mandri. It is way too quiet here.....

I couldn't stomach gaviscon with my 1st pregnancy as it just tastes horrible I just lived with the heartburn & tried to avoid all the spicy/hot food I liked so much.

I also saw that post on the January 2013 thread & wanted to 'steal' it but you beat me to it

I will reply on it just now!

Palesa, can't believe you are almost 22 weeks. Sjoe but the time does go by so quickly.

Palesa it is, I was all over the nausea now a new sort is creeping up again. Luckily its only before bed time so I sleep it off.

Mandri at 16 weeks it`s quite a shocker hey. i actually dont have supper coz i always feel quizzi when i go to bed.

Gaviscon makes me puke literally everytime i put it in my mouth. i have learnt to deal with the heartburn if it`s bad i have milk to cool it off.

good luck for your scan. i`m going next week saturday 22 weeks cant wait. i wish i could see the baby everyday.
