The pregnancy - July 23rd 2013

Hi.
I know it's been awhile since I last posted. Its not because I've been busy or anything because I haven't really. Its because my morning sickness well and truly hit the last few weeks. I have been pretty much house bound because of it, I had my head down the loo for the best part of 2 weeks before getting put on tablets for it. Although the tablets have taken the best part of the sickness away, I still get moments when I feel sick, and there are times when I am still being sick. Yesterday I was sick twice. Before going on the tablets it would be 3 4 times a day. In 3 weeks I've lost about 8lbs because eating is still struggle, liquids not so much anymore.

The weather here the last few weeks has been HOT!!.
It's reached the low 30s here, and for the UK that is hot. Yesterday was the hottest day we've had in 7 years. We had a little bit of thunder this morning, It dose not feel like its done a whole to the temperature, it's still very warm, I had my curtains closed to keep some of the heat out.

surprisingly I don't really have much to write about, despite having not posted for a few weeks.
I turned 25 Friday but because of how ill I felt we didn't doing anything. I was saying for ages I wanted a birthday cake for my birthday, but when it came to choosing one, I couldn't, I didn't feel up to eating cake. At the moment i'm struggling to eat one meal a day, that's a child size portion.

Well it's been a few days since I last posted. I was hoping by leaving a few days in between posts i'd have more to write about, but I don't really. Not much difference has happened from the norm. Any way regardless of that, I think a post it due. I can't really leave it too long between posts.

Monday
I woke up feeling pretty ill, was meant to go over to a friends house for an hour or two, but I woke up with a stomach ache and just felt like rubbish, didn't help that my little one didn't have a very nice nappy for me to chance.
When hubby got home that day, after we had dinner we went to do the rest of our food shop. The fridge and freezer stuff.

Yesterday
Was just about to leave to get my little one weighed as he now gets weighed every 2 weeks to see that we had left the pram in the car, so I couldn't get him weighed. so we ended up spending the day in. I cooked chicken soup for dinner. After dinner we went to Tesco to pick up our baby monitor that was meant to be there, to find out it was not there and that they didn't know where it was. Now have to wait on a phone call to tell me when it is in. It was quite annoying going all that way to be told it was not in. I won't be happy if they don't have it by the weekend. You order it on one day and it should be there 2 days later.

Today
Had the health visitor this morning. She is really pleased with how well my little one is doing. She said she wasn't expecting him to do half the things he is as he was a prem. I am so proud of my little boy he is doing so well, He got weighed today as well, he's now 11lb 10oz. He's quite long, I think he is going to be tall just like his daddy.
I had a lovely message of a friend I made a while after I moved here. She moved away before I fell pregnant with my little one so she hasn't meet him yet. She's coming over in 2 weeks time, Just in time for my birthday. We are planning on going for a meal the day after she comes down. She is really looking forward to having cuddles with my little one. Its going to be nice to see her again. Its been awhile, About 2 years seen I last saw her.
I have quite a bit to look forward in 2 weeks time. I have my booking appointment on the 18th, my birthday on the 19th and hopefully a meal out on the 20th.

Sorry it's been a few days.

Friday was the usually things apart from little one had his 3rd set of jabs cried more then he did the time before, had a little temp rise and got a little restless nothing much really. In the afternoon, well late afternoon early evening I had to take some photos for my sister's prom. which would have been ok if my camera was not so slow and took better images, as in colour wise, its just dull. Had a late night as it meant we didn't get in till gone 10 I think it was.

Saturday. I went to see a friend that I hadn't seen in a while, so we had a good chat, in the afternoon we went to hubby's parents, also went to toys r us to get some cotbed bedding ready for when little one goes in his own room this week. We also did some food shopping not a lot though as we had to go to hubby's aunts as well so we didn't get in till quarter to 11 last night

Today.
Got woken up at 8 which was great. little one had a bottle and then went back to sleep so I feel asleep then didn't wake up again till 10 past 11. Went to hubby's parents again this afternoon, as we always do on a sunday, plus his cousin was going to be there with her little one. So cute, she has the cute chubby baby checks as well, We went to Tesco to get a baby monitor, but had to order it has they don't keep that sort of thing in our store, so have to pick that up on Tuesday after 4pm. Which is fine as hubby doesn't get in till about half 5, so wouldn't be able to get it before hand anyway. Got in today just after 9. Was meant to upload some photos for my sister but can't be bothered as I need to edit some of them plus hubby is playing battlefield 3 online and don't fancy making him lag.

Tomorrow I am meant to be going over one of the ladies I go to baby group with, I think that's still happening.
Down to the pregnancy part of the blog
sickness has not been to bad, I have heaved a few times and felt sick but apart from throwing up in my mouth apart half an hour ago it's not been to bad.
Backache has not been to bad either, a bit sore today but that's about it.
A little cramping, but nothing painful.
Have been quite tired, but I have a thing where I find it really hard to sleep before 11pm, if I do I wake up feeling worse then I did before I had a nap.

Hello
Well didn't post yesterday as I thought I'd have loads of posts with pretty much nothing on them.

Ok so yesterday an old work friend of mine came over, it was the first time I had seen her since she left. We both feel pregnant with in a month of each other, mine was from using conceive plus hers from IVF. Although we got pregnant a month a part there is 2 months between her little one and my little one. Mine being the older one of the 2 and being early.

nothing else really happened yesterday, see why I waited to post an extra day. :)

My little one has been pretty clingy the last few days, making doing anything quite difficult. So yet again I have not really done anything.
Was meant to go to baby club this morning but nether of the ladies I go with were going. A good thing really as I did not feel up to going. I was far to tired.

My little one has his last set of jabs tomorrow before his 1 year ones. I hate seeing him have them done. I hate seeing him cry in pain. I hope he is going to be ok after them, I have to take some photos for my sister's prom.

well another short thread, well tomorrow is going to be busy so maybe i'll have more to write about.

Hello

This is morning I went to the doctors and got my pregnancy confirmed. My doctor put me at 5 weeks 3 days as they have to go my last period. They can't got by ovulation because using OPKs doesn't tell exactly when you ovulated only that you might. I have my first midwife appointment all booked for July 18th, the day before my birthday. It's going to be a long one as it's a booking appointment and they have to take so many details. When I was pregnant with my little one, the appointment took over an hour. I was so glad I booked that day off work, it would have meant I would have been late.
I remember the first time I threw up when I pregnant with my son. It was as we were pulling into the car park of the hospital for my 12 week scan. I was so glad that I had brought a plastic bag with me. Seeing my baby made me feel so much better, even if I did get sent away to go and get something to eat and drink.

That's a point I need to get something to drink, A nice orange juice should do the trick.

mmmm nice and cold.

Apart from my appointment this morning and going into Wilkos I have not actually done much, Gave the living room a week tidy but that's about it.

As tomorrow it Wednesday I don't usually do anything so i'm not sure if it's worth writing everyday when all my days are pretty much the same thing. Saying that I might do just because it gives me something to do for all of 5 minutes, not even that most of the time.
I think I will join my hubby and play worms 2.

see ya 

The pregnancy - June 24th 2013

Good afternoon ladies and gents (if any) :).
Today has not been too bad, I went over to a another mummy's house, one of the ladies I go to baby club with. We had a good chat.
I took a walk to Tesco as I fancied some pasta, with spring onions and tomato puree. Needed something else I found it quite bland.
It hasn't been overly warm today, which is good, although cloudy we have had some sunshine.

So I signed up to countdown my pregnancy when I was pregnant with my son. I've entered my dates for this pregnancy and it's come up saying I am 5 weeks 1 day. I'm pretty sure I am actually 4 weeks 3 days as I ovulated later in my cycle. I have doctors tomorrow so I think they will work it out then.
Ok so today my nausea has not been too bad, neither has my backache, I have been getting cramps though, but I had that in my last pregnancy and they are not painful or anything so I know it's normal.

Painted my nails for the first time in a while, I think for the first time since I was half way through my pregnancy with my son.

 nothing thing to add to the list of symptoms for today sore boob.

Although today has been a little different from my usual Mondays I don't really have a whole lot to say. So on that note enjoy the rest of your day, if your day has just started enjoy your day. if you are just of to bed good night.

The pregnancy - June 22nd 2013

Ok so it was another early morning today, had to go to my parents this morning to tell them the good news, and then this afternoon hubby's brother, his dad and his uncle went go karting, while me my little one, hubby's mum hubby's sister and her little all went down to their local town.
It was a fun afternoon, I picked up my vitamins, My little one got a few toys from his nanny, Nausea set in big time today. Made it pretty hard to eat anything. Did a food shop this evening and got home and released we hadn't actually picked up anything lunchy for me to have during the week.

Tonight is meant to be where the moon is at it's closest point to the earth only can't really see it as it's too damn cloudy last time I saw it, I had left my phone at home so couldn't get a picture of it.
These legs cramps are doing my head in. All day on and off I have been getting them, No idea what to do to help ease them or make them not come at all.
This is a late one so it's a very short one tonight as I am pretty tired and all I want to do is sleep, so on that note night all
