A first!

I actually got offered someone elses seat on the tube yesterday! Shock horror! My faith in humanity is restored!

14 weeks to go!

I was very tired this morning! I now seem to wake up about 5am every morning now because I need the loo and can't breathe! (Must get some more Breathe Right nose strips - can't live without them!)
Duncan felt the baby move for the first time this weekend which was excellent! The baby's kicks seem to be getting harder! He also bought me Jools Olivers' new book about her experiences, which was really good. I nearly finished it in a day!

Week 26

Who's idea was it to get pregnant in the summer eh? My own fault I guess! It was a very hot weekend but at least we have the air conditioning. (But not in my car!) We went out with Tony and Claire on friday night for a drink which was good. Did a bit of shopping saturday then had an afternoon nap! Had a lovely sunday lunch with Steve, Vicki and Joe. Then back home for another afternoon nap! Well I should get them while I can i say!
(Buggie update: I have decided on a red Bugaboo, thanks to Jane's great demonstration!)

15 and a half weeks to go!

Can't seem to count! (Dunc better teach it maths!) A countdown in weeks sounds sooner I think.
We had our tour of St. Peters at the weekend which was fine if not a little long. Too many people asking silly questions that they should really be asking their midwife! Still felt the youngest in the group though. Was nicely decorated and clean. And didnt hear any agonising groans coming from the delivery rooms! Just hope baby doesnt come at peak traffic times, as the parking can be tricky. Saturday morning was very quiet! We were told that Handy Andy did the garden too!

108 days to go!

Ok it may be a bit early to start a count down, but hey, we're getting excited! Musn't peak too early!
Have noticed one thing recently that is a good thing about pregnancy, my leg hair has stopped growing! V. handy! My stomach is also now 40" around! Not such a good thing but there's not alot I can do about that!
And not wishing to bore you with my buggy research, but I will.... the only buggy that will fit into the boot of my Polo is a Quinny Buzz and possibly a Bugaboo (its only 1cm too long!). Must be fate!

Week 24

Had a great time at the weekend with the girls! Stayed at Suzi's in Harrogate and had lots of fun playing with Mia and Maggie who are about 15 months now. Got lots of cuddles and had some nappy changing practice! Plus got the real-life experience of being woken up at 5.30am by a screaming baby! Then at 6.30 ish they both came in my room to make sure I was awake! But seeing their smiling faces at the edge of my bed was way to cute to ignore! Good job I'm an early bird anyway.
