Meags, I understand your frustration about studying and you feel like it all goes to waste. But I am sure the triplets and their mommy know what they have in you. But I think being a midwife will be more fulfilling.

I know it is bad, but I find if I eat starchy things I feel better. Like a breadie, or some rice or mash ect. It takes the naar away, heartburn too as well as the fainty silly feelings.

I live in PTA, so that won't help :laugh: Will try a dischem tomorrow.

Ok, my list.... Don't get a fright! First of all, I want the Graco Quattro Delux travel system, which is R6000... So that is A LOT of the total amount. I will post my list now...

Meemo I do like them and they are really cute. but it is exhausting and to be honest, i really just want to work as a midwife. I studied for so long and feel a little 'stupid' sitting playing with babies after all that studying!

I get dizzy in the shower and if I havent eaten for like 2 hours (which is ridiculous...i cant eat every 2 hours). I do snack on fruits and crackerbread but it doesnt help?!

Meags - Hope you get a scan tomorrow. I thought you liked working with the triplets, or did I miss something somewhere?

It was me who had cramps after BD. It was above pelvic bone and really eina! So now no more fooling around. Anyway, DH is too scared to till doc gives the ok. I hope it is ok, cause we going on holiday next week, and being at the sea with no BD...... but whatever is best for baba!

I also an slightly naar the whole time, get dizzy at times, especially in the mornings when I dry my hair upside down, and feel faint at times as well, but faint I think is more my body wants to sleep.

hi everyone

cant remember who asked if i managed to have a scan today...I am only at the hospital tomorrow so hope to have one then :)

EmsMom, I am too scared to BD since I had those cramps at the beginning. Gynae said it seems like it was a threatening MC so now that I'm on the progesterone, I dont want to risk anything!!
I figure it's better to wait and have a healthy pregnancy than risk it and cause complications??

And for who ever asked, after having sex, yes you can have cramps and this is normal. it can even be normal to spot after sex. however, if that happens to me, i think i will freak out!

kaylea, as the others said...if you didnt exercise before, dont start in the first 12 weeks.
otherwise you can do the walk, but do not power walk. your body should not over heat.

fawhaway, sorry about the clinic....it's the same in Joburg. they refuse to take you if you dont live in the area...

Meemo it is normal to have an HCG level of lower than 5 in your body. once it is more than 5, you are pregnant.

think i definitely have started with the morning sickness. feel soo queasy.
does anyone else feel faint and weak?
