What's a Midwife?

After 3 weeks of waiting to hear from my Midwife I ended up having to travel to my nearest town to see one as nobody seemed able to find her. I'm now booked in ready for my scan in a couple of weeks and joy of joys by chance I also managed to get hold of my local Midwife whilst ringing the main offices to leave her another message. This is the only problem with living in a small village you don't get the luxuries of a Midwife clinic or having one available at your Doctors.

My morning sickness has been fluctuating from day to day, the worst with me spending time with my head at the ivory seat other days I get away with sucking a polo. I think this has put me off any more much to the relief of daddy moo hehe

Just keep eating

The only way I can seem to curb the sickness is to eat but my appetite has gone tiny so it makes it really hard to do I'm living on a diet of polo mints and tic tacs for the time being. I know ginger should help but i still can't face it after it making me ill when pregnant with baby moo so its mint for now.
Tiredness is also another side effect I forgot about and baby moo seems to know I would like an afternoon nap as she has stopped having them :-( I also keep having freaky dreams which keeps me awake in the night. I actually forgot how hard being pregnant was :-)

Its too hot

The heat has been awful for baby moo bringing back her heat rash so she has been crawling about in just a nappy in the house and a t-shirt in top when we've been out and about. She's been enjoying laying on the leather sofa as its really cool against her skin and its helped bring the rash down too. She has looked very cute at night in her shorties and a little t- shirt opting to not have her cover on and sleeping on top of it instead :-)
As for myself I'm so glad I'm in early pregnancy as I remember last year it being unbearable, heavily pregnant and not being able to stay cool. This time at least I don't have contend with a hot shop too.
Today we have been doing some gardening and getting baby moo to sort stones into a flower pot to keep her entertained, all the fresh air has made her very sleepy mind do FC she sleeps well tonight ;-)

Eeek

So not only is baby moo 14 months but im also 7 weeks pregnant!! I was lucky first time round and never really felt sick, this time however its really bad Im sure daddy moo will soon get bored of me moaning about feeling sick lol. There isn't much time to think about being pregnant when you have a crawler to chase around after, and as she still gets up in the night im usually tired anyway :-) Im still breastfeeding at the moment but waiting to see if she goes off it when my milk starts changing. A full nights sleep would be handy for a few months before this one arrives to keep me up again haha

Bob....

Well thanks to daddy moo, baby moo's favorite word is Bob as they watch Spongebob Squarepants every Sunday, no Mr Tumble in this house. After 5 episodes back to back however it is driving me mad, come back Peppa all is forgiven

Jabs

I've just booked baby moo in for her 13 month jabs Im taking daddy moo with me as I hate needles and hate seeing her upset I have medicine and chocolate at the ready and will give her boob too hopefully FC everything goes ok. I know some people take the decision to delay or not give vaccines at all but i'd be scared of her catching one of them. I have delayed it by a month but that's enough for me!

Carpark rant

Twice yesterday whilst out i was annoyed at people parking in mother and toddler, the first was in the first carpark i parked in a large people carrier pulled up and out got 6 adults - no children so i told the attendant who made the driver move :)
The second incident in a different carpark was a pregnant lady - no baby who got out of her car looked at me staring and said to me

"I know she's not here yet, but there's no where else to park"

She promptly walks off whilst i count 20 free bays just near me

I hope that when her baby arrives she realises how annoying it is when people take up valuable parking when they have no children, which is what I told the second parking attendant when i found him!
