    Heya everyone. Hope you are all good.

    I've had an awful week. I came down with a headache last Sunday. Took tablets, still lingering Monday and Tuesday, only time I never felt it was when I was at the gym. Done an extra shift on Tuesday at work, struggled big time, my head was pounding on one side. By Wednesday I'd had enough so took myself to the GP where he treated it as a migraine. Gave me some tablets and said I could only take two a day, along with paracetamol and ibuprofen. If the headache went and came back I could take the second one, but if it did not go I was not to take the next one. I came home, laid down and it eventually almost went. Got up sorted dinner etc, by the time it came to eating dinner I was ready to claw my head off. I laid back down and even getting up to the toilet gave me so much pressure in my head. Thursday I called in sick for my night shift, and had to do the same Friday. I just could not sit up. Spent Friday evening sat upright though, with a pillow behind my neck supporting it. Called work Saturday to say I'd be back that night, got worse as the day went on, still went in, had an awful shift, got home yesterday morning, fell into bed and slept well for a few hours and woke feeling much better. Today feeling better but I do have a tingling headache starting as I've been upright, so laying down now.

    Anyone who suffers on a regular basis I feel sorry for you, it's awful.

    Oh GF hope you're feeling better soon.

    Sorry for the suspense ladies, baby girl decided she didn't actually want to come and kept giving mummy contractions here there and everywhere. After 3 days of contractions she was almost delivered at home by me! Contractions went from every half an hour to every minuet in the space of 2 hours. Daddy only just got her to the hospital in time. She was finally born at 6pm on the dot weighing 7lb 1oz. Baby and daddy are doing well but mummy has lost a lot of blood.

    Realised that I hadn't cooked my dinners for the week. All in the oven now. Just road veggies and chicken and rice. Nothing too exciting but will do. Need to leave for work in an hour but no motivation. Would rather stay home and sort this tip out. It's not dirty just papers everywhere etc...

    Not heard from the proud parents this morning so unsure how mummy is doing but as soon as I know I will let you know Emily. We are leaving them to it and waiting for them to message us as I know how annoying it was when I got 1000 messages after my little boy was born lol.

    Friend has just messaged, she is very tired and hurts but both her and baby are doing well and are now home with baby girls big sister and daddy.

    Been for a 5 mile walk today and I feel like an old women now who needs a hip replacement. Got loads of complements on how much weight I have lost :D.
    AF is now 5 weeks late! A medium told my auntie that there is going to be a new baby in the family next year but it wont be a grandchild to her and the parents don't know yet as mummy is on contraception. I'm actually scared to do a test because last time the medium said that I was pregnant and fell on the pill, haha. It could also be my brother partner tho.

    Morning,

    I went to see OH grandparents on my own last night. First time in at least 20 months I've been on my own with them! It wasn't too bad actually. They go on hold today so had to take her birthday pressie and card around and OH was working.

    Afternoon all, hope you ar all well

    I'm about to head off to work, been busy this week work wise, I was also on call Tuesday night, I as 1st for home births but at 415am I got a call asking me to go to the unit. My initial thoughts were that they had already used the unit on call person and I had to go and take over. Nope, it was because that person never answered their phone,so I was in until 745am, then had to go home, cancel a visit that I had before clinic then do my clinic. Annoyed was an understatement. I had a moan the next day as I said if I'd been called out to a home birth, or that I was taking over that would not have been an issue, but because someone never answered their phone it annoyed me as I felt rough by the end of Wednesday due to tiredness.

    Finally went back to the gym on Thursday and yesterday, I'm hurting today so been good having a week or so off from it as I was starting to not feel anything from it.

    Anyhoo, best shoot now, take care all.

    It was a huge shock to us all Nicole. She's starting to show already and we have no idea how far gone she is. She thinks around 6-8 weeks but we think she is over 12 weeks. She's coming to mine tomorrow to phone the midwife and get everything sorted, she is terrified bless her.

    Wish this appointment for the brain specialist would hurry up, non stop head ache for over a week now and even my meds are not getting rid of it for longer than an hour. I'm unsteady on my feet and keep losing my sight :( not very fun when you 19 month old is poorly. Been told I have to drink more water but it makes me feel sick. I've never been able to drink water on it's own. (I'm a strange one lol)

    Had one of those days today. Korey-James has misbehaved all day and every time I told him off or told him no some one gave him what he wanted any way or picked him up to give him a cuddle while in time out! How I've not totally lost it or eaten someone alive I will never know.
    AF arrived in the night and to say I'm heavy and in agony is an understatement (sorry if tmi).
    Headache is finally subsiding after 3 times the normal amount of my meds today (out of hours gp advised it, only this once). I can sill feel it right at the back of my head tho and behind my eyes. Wine, Chocolate and a good cry is certainly needed but all that makes my head worse and cant drink on my meds :'(

    Hey all

    Again work messed up. I was community today but got changed to an early so they were phoning me asking where I was. I had visits planned so not only did I do those, I done the unit and then had to go out and do more visits. Glad today is done and next week best not be the same!
