Ahhh I finally gave in to my bloating/maternity needs and boy does it feel good. I bought one pair of maternity pants that are so comfortable I plan never to take them off EVER (well maybe after I give birth) and four tops. Some of these count as my birthday present (which is on Saturday) along with three pairs of shoes.
I should have just bought maternity pants weeks ago – I think I got too hung up on when I am ‘meant’ to show – who cares now. I’m comfortable and nobody is going to get in the way of that. It is my second baby so everything is nicely prestreched LOL.
I know I have already covered this but ahhhh, I’m just so comfortable that I could cry!! Infact since getting back from the shops I have been feeling quite emotional due to being comfortable. I’m so silly for ignoring what my body needs.
Hard to believe that the first trimester will be over in four weeks – it is going quite quick. Well I think I have been really lucky in terms of morning sickness as I only had about a week of very mild off and on sickness (no spewing), the only way I am suffering is with the bloating/uncomfortableness but I am really hoping it will go after the 12 week mark??? I don’t know if it will or not.
I am thinking it may be worse due to having the band – who knows???
My spotting has been almost non-existent since Monday so that has made me extremely happy.
I haven’t written much about my daughter Jessie so far in my blog – don’t know why. She is such a cutie. She is very concerned about having to share with the baby when it comes along. I keep reassuring her that the baby will have its own toys and that she might want to have a turn of them LOL. She has been driving me a little nuts at times, her main things lately are emptying all her clothes out of all her drawers and dumping them on the floor every time I put her down for a nap. The other thing is drawing where she is not supposed to – a couple of days ago she drew all over her wall with a pencil, today she got a permanent marker and drew all over herself and the computer desk while I had a shower. Thankfully it all came out thanks to some helpful hints. Olive oil to remove from skin; – hairspray and a wet cloth to remove from the computer table.
