blah... tummy ache...

Need some soothing words..... Have to get through the day until 5.30pm home time..... Want my bed.....

(time of the month blah....!!!!!)

Awww sweetie, I hate that too. Fortunately I don't suffer very much with it now. Truth be told, chocolate really helps Something to do with it boosting seratonin levels and endorphins... so now you have a legitimate reason for pigging the good stuff!! If you get a chance, maybe at lunch you can go to a chemists? Usually they stock these self-heating pads for backache - they're really good on cramps and I think they might even have started to make them specifically for that.... As long as you don't try and crunch up in a little ball of pain (which is difficult to say the least because it's the only hting you feel like doing) then you can dull the pain a fair bit. Find excuses to get up and walk about a bit, stretch for things... I'm sure you know all of these, but I also know it doesn't help when you just hurt and you want to go and feel sorry for yourself somewhere. When you get home, treat yourself to a long hot bath and take a hot water bottle to bed (and a bottle of something) and have a great big feel better hug from me

Awww I hope you are feeling up to scratch again soon!

Roll on home time!!

And who said it was easy being a woman?!

Gilly like Emma said a hottie bottle works wonders and i always take ibuprofen because i refuse to suffer pain in this day and age.

Hope it goes away soon

Susan, I second that... who said it was easy being a woman? Probably a man.... funny how they usually think they got the rough end of the deal!!

Thanks girls... Sorry to whinge... lol

I have taken some ibruprofen and just gone for a wander up and down the office stairs. I sometimes use a hot water bottle/heat pad at home but it's a bit difficult at work....

It's only just gone 11am and I have eaten two chocolate brownies already (and downed about 3 cups of tea!!)

Roll on home time!!! A hot bath sounds so appealing right now as well.

Yup - being a woman sometimes sucks!!!!!

heater bottles dont work for me.. when i look at one i always want to throw up unless its overed in those teddies.

Do you know whats great when i get my monthly, ohh the first day i feel so drowsy so i pig out on plain chocolate bars, peanut butter right out of the jar, Crips with chocolate and a big very salty sandwhich hmmm... of course the next day and for the rest of the month i look at my self and im like ewww how can i eat those things?

It's the opposite for me I normally don't eat much when it's that time of the month, but sometimes I binge completely!

Sorry that you are having a bad time of it today, Its hard when we just have to grin and bear it. I just take panadole for the pain and heat packs some times it helps other times it doesnt. Hope that your feeling better soon.

Sure hope the rest of the day goes by quickly for you and you feel better very soon!

I actually took a walk up to Argos and got a magnetic cat flap This had better stop Guin bringing in Pepples and Bambam.....

It says that you need to "teach" the cat how to use the magnet on the collar.... I need to get him used to the collar first! lol I can see how much fun I am going to be having this weekend.
