I’m 25 weeks now, so I don’t really look like the above photo, I just liked it and thought I’d use it. Today our beautiful baby has been having a lovely time kicking more and more. I can still squeeze into my jeans (they’re stretch!).
I went to the Doc last week and so far I’ve put on 5kg which I think is about right. My back has been aching a little when I get up at night otherwise I’ve been well. I was trying to get into the habit of swimming every week but I’ve only been once so far. I suppose there’s plenty more time. Will makes fun of me because I went out and bought the best cap and googles and will probably never use them again.
I’ve also been reading up about the birth to try to develop a positive attitude towards it. Now a part of me is really looking forward to the challenge and experience of it. I’ve also been mindful that this is such a special time because after I’ve had a baby (pregnancy, birth, motherhood) will never be the same excitement (perhaps the wrong word) again.
Will is going to be such a great Dad. He is so keen to be involved, all I have to do is be mindful to encourage him and let him learn for himself and try not to tell him what to do or more importantly- do it for him. I love beautiful Will so much and I love our baby.
