Baby Shower No 2
Hello bleeps! How are you doing? I still have half a face! But I must say the nesting instinct is definitely kicking in as B and I sorted out the nursery yesterday, packing everything in order and feeling a lot more sorted.

ENT and Gynae visits
Hello bleeps! Try keeping up with me and my latest medical escapades! Yesterday, I went to the beauty shops to get all sorted out for my op.

Hospital and bed rest
Hello bleeps! This is a first for me, writing a post from DH’s iPad. I have been a bit scarce, but I have a good reason. On Tuesday afternoon I went to get my blood pressure checked out with the midwife. It was meant to be just a regular check up but the next thing I know I am being sent to … [Read more...]
