Its been ages since I have blogged about anything and not because life is that boring but because “We’re Having A Baby!!!”
That’s right we took the leap after much humming and hawing and decided to give parenthood a whirl.
The test came back positive in Mid-October much to our surprise and for the next while we kept the news to ourselves. Keeping that secret was tricky but in late November we finally broke the news to our family and friends who were absolutely thrilled to find out a baby was on the way.
I have no complaints about the first three months. I was able to avoid the dreaded bouts of morning sickness and besides being incredibly tired everything progressed along nicely particularly the expansion of my waist line.
We made the decision in those first few weeks to register with a midwife. Many of our friends had gone the same route in the past and were very happy with the time and attention given during the pregnancy and the aftercare provided. It was certainly the right choice for both of us…our midwives are great.
At 12 weeks we would get our first glance of the poop tart (thanks B.S.VW for the baby name!!!!) At only 6cm in size….it was very cool to be able to see how much baby had developed in such a short time.
By the end of the first 3 months my energy levels returned…just in time for the Christmas Holidays!!!
