I interrupt the cheery news of belly pics and baby showers to give you the sad update on my health. On the positive side, baby is fine. (As far as I know, he’s still kicking...) Remember I told you guys about more than a week ago about the insect that flew in my ear? Well, the ear problem … [Read more...]
Grow, baby grow!
Hello bleeps! Well, not much is really new. I have been resting at home trying to create an optimal place for baby to do his thing? Blood pressure readings have come down, but I’m sure they go up every now and then when I worry? On Monday we went to my GP down the road because an insect had … [Read more...]
Still resting
Someone asked for an update (Mommy to Be), but actually there isn’t much to update. I have pretty much been in bed. Every now and then I sit for a bit just to give myself some variety. Blood pressure has been pretty good, although there have been some fluctuations. On Monday when … [Read more...]
I saw my son in three dimensions
Hello bleeps! I am still on holiday this week and have been getting quite a lot done. Went to the traffic dept., paid all fines and got my new driver’s license.

It’s a boy!
On Tuesday we went to see our new ob/gyn Dr K. We waited more than an hour. He popped out and then popped back in ?I just wanted to check on her, and landed up delivering a baby!? But when it was finally our turn he made up with it with a very thorough examination. He even did a pap smear (Ouch, … [Read more...]
Vitamins For Pregnancy
I promised an update to the Fertile Food Thoughts post on what to eat when you are pregnant, and this is kind of a part two. Except it has started off as more of an interest in vitamins, and vitamins for pregnancy. (By the way SIF has just written a post about getting cheaper vitamins from … [Read more...]
Vampire Babies
(Spoiler alert: do not read if you are still going to watch Breaking Dawn and don’t want to know what happens) It was probably not a good idea to watch a film about vampire babies, being 9 weeks pregnant and all. For starters I was feeling a bit of nausea and had to have a little … [Read more...]
