hiya, it seems like an eternity that i have written on here. sorry for being so slack! im now 30 and half weeks preggers, my tummy is huge and its getting more uncomfortable to sleep at night. the baby kicks heaps, its so awesome. its really cool if u lay in the bath and watch the belly being kicked and wobble...shammah thinks its so funny too! all is going well, i hv been getting a bit of sickness here and there but nothing too bad. indigestion is a bit of a killer, hv to be really careful what i eat otherwise it nearly kills me. i never had this with my first one. i hv had a little bit of low blood pressure and bit low in iron but both not much to worry about. i wasnt happy about taking iron tablets as they can make you constipated and give u black stools-lovely-but so far it hasnt been too bad, i take the tablets every second day so im guessing that helps.
we have been buying more baby stuff now, even getting boxes of nappies when they are on sale coz we all know how expensive they are and how many we go thru! a friend from church is giving us a cot which is a real blessing and my sister in law is giving us her baby change table and cradle to use which is also a huge blessing. i hv put lots of things on laybye, its so awesome being home in australia for the birth of our second child, not only coz of being near family but coz in the uk they dont do laybys! u either buy them on the day or use store cards...and we all know how dangerous that can be! u pay high interest and also get yourself into serious debt-not good! so being able to goto kmart or target and put laybys on is wonderful! its the small things in life eh! :)
weight wise i have put on 6kg, which im very happy about. i lost weight at the start of the pregnancy as i was vomiting constantly but after about 5months that calmed right down, praise God! so now im putting on a bit of weight but its not too much which is good. i hvnt been too good with my eating, sometimes i eat rubbish food like chocolate or a packet of chips but i dont go for food like kfc or mc donalds! but i hvnt been a saint either! im looking forward to getting back on track with ww after the baby is born and just cant wait to loose weight! i wonder how much i can loose by jan? when the hot weather really starts to kick in in tassie...well...with tassie u never know what the weathers gunna do but here's hopeing eh! i have bumped into a couple of people from ww in town and they r all so friendly and wanna know how im going. im always keen to tell them im looking forward to going back to ww coz its true, i really am. i hv a real positive outlook and there is no turning back to the old me. i know i will be breast feeding and it might not come off like b4 but i can still loose weight even if it does take a bit longer. it will be so cool to see the other ladies from my meeting and see there progress, i bet they r looking like a million dollars!
anyway peoples i had better go get some house work done. i will try not to leave it so long for my next post!
