Up the Duff!!

 

Happy New Year everyone!  I hope you had a lovely Christmas break with your loved ones.

It's been a while since I've updated this blog.  I'm always procrastinating writing an update, as I always feel I have nothing exciting going on and I seem to be whining about the same old things - child not sleeping mainly!  Which may not make for very exciting reading!

Anyway I think that may change .. as in August this year my life is going to get a whole lot busier .. I am up the duff with number 2!

Just had our 12 week scan and it was such a relief to see that a) there was only one baby in there and b) hear the big booming heart beat! One of my very good friends just had her second set of twins - yes you read that correctly, SECOND set of twins!  All conceived naturally too I might add, and one of the girls in my antenatal group is having twins also so I was a tad concerned that this could happen to us!  Of course, someone added to that worry by telling me that over the age of 35 us ladies start releasing two eggs each month .. I never knew that .. and that didn't ease my mind either!

Anyway so far the pregnancy has been ok ... I mean I have had the all day nausea (morning my you know what....), but nothing that a trip to the golden arches for a double cheeseburger won't fix!  What is it with nausea and the instant relief one gets from anything yellow and fried!  I am still exercising 4-5 times a week, and actually I find that it does make me feel better.  Of course I just walk a few paces and the old heart rate goes through the roof but just managing that as best I can.

Anyway, will leave at this for now ... I will be updating more frequently now with how it's all going.  I am a tad concerned at just how busy it will be with two children but I'm just ignoring that feeling for now.  Ignorance is bliss.

Until next time,

Sovita.
