  • How far in to your pregnancy are you now?

    I am 8 weeks today! x

    What are you finding most challenging about your pregnancy so far?

    I've been suffering from constant nausea since 6 weeks although it's been under control today following an acupuncture session yesterday! I'm struggling with not shouting our news from the rooftops and also the nausea has made it difficult to eat sensibly and I feel like I've gained about 5 stone already (I'm already over weight so very conscious of minimising weight gain due to risk of Gestational Diabetes).

    Who have you told about your pregnancy so far?

    My team at work and my managers know because I've been signed off since getting my BFP. We've told both sets of parents and our siblings, plus a few close friends! Seems like millions of people! We'll have run out of people to tell by the time we get to 12 weeks, lol!! xx

    How did you chose your Baby Expert username?

    Hubby's nickname is Dotty and when we first got together 12 years ago I was referred to as Dotty's Bird!

    What is your favourite film?

    I have a few! Love Actually, Drop Dead Fred, Mean Girls, Clueless!

    What is your favourite restaurant/ type of food?

    I love chinese food and in Bristol there is a restaurant called Cosmo which is an all you can eat Pan Asian restaurant! It's amazing! I even named my cat Cosmo after I went there!!!

    Where would be your dream holiday destination?

    I'm allergic to the sun (polymorphic light erruption image) so our dream holiday would have to be a city break to New York and Vegas! Hubby has been watching Man Vs Food and really wants to check out the fast food places!!!!

  • Why is everything centralised???!!! I only centralised my signature!!!

  • Phew, fixed it! Sorry for spamming!!!

  • oOoOo, yay!! Love it image

    How far in to your pregnancy are you now?

    10 weeks and 2 days

    What are you finding most challenging about your pregnancy so far?

    Constant nausea, tiredness, finding sleeping at night difficult, needing the toilet every night somewhere between 2-3am and migraines (the bain of my life and due to raging pregnancy hormones they have gotten worse and I cannot take and of my usual medication for them booo!).

    Who have you told about your pregnancy so far?

    My parents, husbands parents, brother in law and my sister.

    How did you chose your Baby Expert username?

    Dollys name when I was little coupled with my year of birth

    What is your favourite film?

    I have a few as well!

    Any chick flicks.....Dirty dancing, Love Actually, Bridget Jones Diary etc etc and also Layer Cake (a lil bit different from my usual favs!)

    What is your favourite restaurant/ type of food?

     I love pretty much all food!  Do especially like seafood though

    Where would be your dream holiday destination?

    Both of the places we visited on honeymoon - Maldives and Dubai.  We were thinking of going back this year to Dubai but that has gone completely outta the window now.  I have settled for Crete for 1 week next month.  Just hoping my nausea will have gone by then (I will be 14 weeks)

    Constant sickness and crazy tiredness which make it so hard to go to work image Can't wait until I can tell them and maybe be allowed a bit of sympathy and leeway if i'm feeling terrible.

    Well I went to Florida on my Honeymoon (not a particularly conventional choice!), so would love to go back there, or to Hawaii or the Maldives. However, I am going to Crete for two weeks on Saturday, so pretty excited about that at the moment!

Hubby was keen and I wanted to see why other women felt so sure they could do this. Over the last 2 years or so (!) I've come round to the idea and once we started TTC, I was desperate to get pregnant!  <p style="font-family: Arial, helvetica, sans-serif; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px;"><strong style="border-style: initial; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; font-weight: bold; bor
