I had a lovely day today, got a lie in, had breakfast brought to me in bed, with some wonderful pressies including an Ipod Touch in readiness for the losing of the baby weight, and some great gifts the boys chose themselves from the Mother's day stall at school.
We took my Mum out for lunch to the Cherry Tree in Stanbridge which was fun, the boys were quite well behaved and then we went on to see Lee's Mum & Dad in the afternoon and stopped off on the way home at his Nan & Grandad's.
It was one of my best friend's birthday's last week and she hit the big 3-0!
So, last night a group of us girlies hit the town and went out and celebrated with her. Some of us lasted longer than others - some getting home at 1am, 1.30am and even 3.30am. As for me, I was home by 10pm!!! Just can't hack it anymore!!!
Had midwife appointment this afternoon (thanks Mum for taking me - due to not being able to drive until Friday) and everything is good.
Apparently, my uterus has expanded to 1,000 times its original volume and is now up under my ribs and I've probably put on between 25-30 lbs (more I'd say, but hey, eating for 2)!! but I will gain little or no more weight from now until due date of 12th April.
Lee got my bag down from the loft yesterday, so I've packed mine and the baby's all ready in case this one is as impatient as Alex was and arrives early! Exciting, but scary stuff...
Well, since Thursday afternoon, I've been like a zombie - as after I'd picked the boys up from school and got home, the room started spinning and I felt really dizzy and sick.
By the time Lee got home I was almost on the floor, so he shipped me off to bed where I stayed for the rest of the evening until I was up and down like a yo-yo throwing my guts up! Not good.
Thank the Lord for Mum's - as mine came round first thing to take the boys to school and then stayed with me for the day which included a trip to the Dr's who said I had an "infection" and prescribed antibiotics and some anti-sickness tablets. I was more than grateful as having only 6 weeks to go until baby B III arrives, I didn't think he'd give me anything!
Mum had Alex for a sleep over Saturday/Sunday and he had a brilliant time even annoucing that he wanted to go and do some "scrappin" on Sunday morning! Way to go son!!
Sooooo, all weekend, my man has been a "Super-Daddy".... I'm well proud of him, considering it's us Mum's that normally do everything , he's coped very well. knackered now of course, but he did well.
I'm married to a wonderful guy called Lee and we have two gorgeous boys - Alexander & Nicholas and a beautiful daughter Cassandra. I run my own secretarial business, I've recently completed a degree - BSc in Criminology and I'm currently training to become a fantastic teacher! I like to keep busy and one of my favourite hobbies is scrapbooking..
