Bump at 17 weeks + 3 and baby movement!


These pictures were taken this morning, but from slightly different angles. The one on the right is more representative of  how I look now!
Maternity jeans or no jeans, that's how I roll these days ;-) Today I'm wearing my fave skinny ones from Topshop


I might look grumpy, but I'm really not!  In fact, yesterday I was feeling plenty of wriggles and kicks, and that alone brings me immense joy!

Park play and pregnancy symptoms

Despite 31(!) degrees I've dragged myself n' bump & lil man to the park to grab some lunch and to let Sean kick his football around and play with his water pistol.

Current symptoms:  really intense vivid dreams, sense of smell in overdrive and lower back pain

Surprise!!!!

12 weeks




 baby bump no 2, starting at the top with 12 weeks to 16 weeks at the bottom

Ladies and gentlemen, first off....I am currently 16 weeks pregnant (at the age of 37), and our baby is due early January 2014 :-)

Bear and I are simply over the moon, and  I am feeling so ready to give Sean a sibling now.  It’s just starting to hit me though that all the seats at our kitchen table will be used up soon :-)   The adjustment, now that Sean is so independent and sleeps well etc, will be an adventure no doubt, and I'm not sure if I'm ready for the sleepless nights (I don’t do those very well!), but boy I am feeling so happy and excited! 

The first trimester was very different to last time, and the early pregnancy symptoms (like fatigue and nausea) have been stronger the second time around. 

My waist has expanded very quickly and I started showing as early as 8 weeks and had to switch to elastic waistbands by week 10. I've experienced sharp headaches (I still get them daily) and food aversions. 

Some days though I have a truck driver's appetite and can suddenly feel hungry enough to polish off a whole pizza PLUS the garlic bread AND dessert! But having said that, I am completely overjoyed to be pregnant, and am already getting impatient to meet my little miracle baby and welcome it to this world xxx
