Kirsty's pregnancy and new Mummy diary- from 30 weeks onwards!

[Dougal1983]

Thanks I'm feeling so inspired

And here's my SW purchases:

 

[Dougal1983]

Oliver slept better last night, I think the key is trying to keep him awake for longer during the day...
As previously posted, I rejoined SW this morning, off to Mum's for dinner tonight and tomorrow I have some friends visiting

 

[Dougal1983]

Very happy to report that I have completed my first day back on plan woop!!
And I just love the HiFi salted caramel bars- could eat a whole box!!

I'm really proud of myself as once home from Mum's, Oliver screamed the house down for 2 hours straight!!
And for no clear reason either!
Normally I'd reach for choc, but instead I munched on some grapes whilst feeding him
Also had a NSV at Mum's- turned down cherry pie and custard
Very proud of myself
Just got to change little man's nappy and settle him and we're off to bed! X

Yay! Well done you - especially for not reaching for chocolate in a crisis. I've been known to eat a share bag of chocolate buttons during colic-gate!

Mmmmm the salted caramel bars are gorgeous aren't they x

Yey to going sw! Your determination is great so I don't see why you can't do this... I too have so much determination it feels great doesn't it

Fakeaway book is a good one, I've done a few from it and loved everyone so far! X

Yeh we are going through colic-gate at the mo!
I love them and quite happy to use syns on them!
They satisfy me just as much as a Twix or Snickers but for half the syns x

I'm totally determined to do this
I sat in group yesterday getting so inspired, esp as there was several other new mummies in there- one had lost 2st something in 24 weeks and her girl must have only been 7-8 months old!
I was reading through it last night and I've already started planning which ones I want to make x

Thanks
It's a lot better than it was, thanks to Gripe water and Infacol!!
Hoping it'll go soon, he's a dream baby all day until after his afternoon feed about 3 and that's when it hits. Makes him very unsettled until bedtime and sometimes carries on.

Oliver finally settled after his evening milk at 10 (bed at 11) and he slept right through until 4 this morning!!
More milk and he was back asleep by 5. Awake again at 7 for more milk and back asleep by 8.
He's currently still asleep.
Got a friend coming round at 11:30 so he should be awake and feeding by then!
Got to pop out for a few bits this afternoon and that's about it.

Going for a Green day today- mainly so I can have a salted caramel HiFi as a B choice and then use my Syns on another!!
Plus, when planning today's food, I noticed the only I was going to have was chicken so I figured I'll get some Quorn chicken instead!
I used to be a vegetarian so I like all the Quorn stuff.
I also had a sneak peek at the scales this morning (hard habit to break lol) and they say 13st 2lbs which is 2.5lbs down from yesterday woop!

So day 2 of SW here we go:

Green

HEXA 1: 350ml skimmed milk
HEXA 2: 65g reduced fat mozzarella

HEXB 1: 27g sachet Quaker multigrain oats
HEXB 2: HiFi salted caramel

B: part HEXA 1 with HEXB 1, 1tsp Nutella (1.5 Syns), Muller light skinny cappuccino

L: savoury rice, carrots, grapes, Muller light skinny cappuccino and HEXB 2

D: pizza chicken- Quorn chicken fillets, HEXA 2, tom purée, peppers, red onions, served with SW chips and roasted veg

Syns:
1tsp Nutella (1.5)
Quavers 16.4g bag (4.5)
HiFi choc orange (6)

Total: 12

I stocked up when doing the weekly shop in Waitrose (plus it'd cost me £3 to get into town so not cheaper for me really!) but thanks anyway x

 

[ksmiuk]

Oooh thanks I'm off to pound land

 

[tink2011]

Oooh thanks I'm off to pound land

I just bought some full price too. Saw it on another site where deals are more then warm! (Not sure if i can say websites ha ha )

Maybe we should start a thread for offers/ bargains on baby things x

2nd day on plan almost over and I still have 13.5 syns to use!
This is why I love SW
Now to decide between a HiFi salted caramel or chocolate orange to go with my bag of Quavers... Or maybe some choc... Decisions decisions...
