Pregnancy and Slimming World

Have to admit ill do quite well out of mat leave. Start 6th jan 2014 and go back beginning of March 2015. All of that is full pay apart from 13 weeks. I know I'm very lucky although don't get pay awards and pension not as good now. Mat leave is good through.
Wow that's amazing!

I finish March 2014 and go back February 2015 and I thought that was good!!

But then I do get a really good pension and the bonus every year so can't complain

I work for the government so bonuses is pretty much not given and my pension is ok, but not as good as they used to be when I first joined.

I get a good maternity leave plan but I do have to go back for at least one month otherwise I have to pay it back.
 
It's saying I'm having a boy!

Another one I tried (the Chinese one I think) said a girl!

This is the only one I've done so far. It says girl. Sonographer says girl. I still say boy ha ha
 
Yep mine says girl :) there really are some fantastic mat packages out there, I will have to look around when it comes to baby number 2 ;)

Yep, this is the nice bump stage so enjoy. Enough bump to look pregnant but not enough that you feel like an elephant. ;) At 36 weeks mines now pretty heavy and unwieldy lol, I still love it though despite my complaining!

I have a massive one that the hospital gave me! It's huge but holds me together nicely. ;) I have stretchy bump bands for around the house too but I need my massive one for walking out in, my pelvis hurts too much if I don't wear it :(
 
14+2 today and I still feel rubbish!!

Had 2 days off work last week due to sickness and today it's been bad- managed to get to work 15 mins late and they took one look at me and sent me straight home!
Got a docs appt at 9:40 as there was blood in my sick this morning and I'm scared...
It was only a little bit and prob just from where I'm being sick on a daily basis but its still stressed me out so think docs is best idea.
Got a week off work next week for my birthday so really hoping I'll feel better and also really need the break.
I turn 30 on Sunday and hubby is taking me to Belgium on Monday, really really can't wait, I just hope I'm feeling better.

Hope everyone and bumps are well x

Aww what a nightmare, you're having it so tough. I've heard some people start to feel better after 16 weeks so fingers crossed x
Hopefully the blood is nothing, let us know what the doctor says.

Thanks I seem to have drawn the short straw of pregnancy symptoms lol.

Well doc says its prob just a small tear in my gut from where I'm throwing up so often and it will heal itself so unless I start throwing up loads more blood, it's nothing to worry about.

I must say my first experience of pregnancy isn't a good one so far!!! X
 
Yeah me and DH say no one tells you how bad it is, it's a big parent conspiracy lol I've not had it too bad but still am surprised by how hard it can be sometimes!
It will all be worth it in the end!
Glad the doctor wasn't too worried x
 
Yeh whenever I'm feeling down about it, I just think of our scan when we saw baby dancing about and waving at us and that gets me through :)

Wish I could fast forward to May tho haha!!

Oh it'll be here before you know it... I can't believe how far along I am.. Considering how slow the first 9 weeks were (first 3-4 weeks we didn't know so the weeks til we could tell everyone)

Glad the doc is happy there's nothing to worry about.. Get yer feet up and rest :) xx
 
Totally exhausted today - the big batch cook has begun - one SW chilli made & one SW Spag Bol already for freezing ready for when bean decides to come. 36 + 6 today! Getting close now eek - went out with friends yesterday for a "last supper" lol! Off to weigh at SW in a bit (well if I can muster the energy)

In my mind I think I'll do batch cooking once I've finished work. Wonder if I really will or not though!

Not long for you now. So exciting. Hope you can have a restful evening after your busy day x
