PostHeaderIcon Baby Shower

I am 21 weeks pregnant so we had the shower early but we are all too excited heh heh heh  :-D

I’ll have another one in November in Wellington, this was in Auckland.

I had the best time ever!!!!!

I loved seeing all my gorgeous girlfriends and I loved all the nice gifts people gave me.  Our baby is set.  Will be so stylish too.  I’ll take photos of all the baby things I have and post those soon.  They make me super clucky.  So tiny, so cute.  So “awww” hehehe.

Mike and I were treated to a special night while we were up courtesy of BFF Morgan. Accommodation at Sky City it was a luxury room it was lush.  Two course dinner at Dine restaurant.  Cocktails (or obviously mocktails for me) at Lobby bar.  Late check out time and breakfast.  Bliss! We’d been so busy lately we really needed that time together it is so appreciated <3 thank you again x 1,000,000

Morgie picked us up from the airport and hosted the baby shower.  Lots of gluten free baking mm cookies and brownies and chocolate cupcakes.  So much sugar.  So much goodness.   Drinking sparkling grape juice and gossiping.  Oestrogen overload.

A fabulous friend Melissa bought her doppler.  This is special, listening to baby’s heartbeat, I could happily listen to that until it’s time to give birth.  I’m glad I have some friends that have kids of their own too.  Milfs

PostHeaderIcon Pregnancy Paranoia

I’ve always considered myself to be laid back and optimistic.  Until now.. My madness is reaching new levels!

Is this a normal side effect of pregnant woman?!

I’m going to blame it on hormones.  Hormones and of course the importance… This is, by far, the most important change that has ever happened to me in my life.  The love I have for this baby, who hasn’t even been born yet, is beyond anything I’ve experienced.

The rules of pregnant women:
There’s the obvious – don’t smoke, drink or take drugs (illegal and prescribed) then there’s the lesser known.

Diet:
Avoid

  • soft cheeses : feta goat cheese, brie, camembert
  • Mexican-style cheeses : queso blanco and queso fresco

Raw eggs including:

  • Caesar dressing
  • Hollandaise sauce
  • Cookie batter
  • Mayonnaise

Avoid

  • deli meats
  • sushi
  • pates
  • raw seafood, especially shellfish
  • undercooked chicken or meat
  • artificial sweetener (in diet drinks and foods)
  • Vitamin A
  • Caffeine
  • Hot dogs
  • Potato salad or coleslaw
  • Anything from a warming tray ie pies, fast food, roast chicken

Theres probably so many more that I’m forgetting.  Oh hummus! No refrigerated goods!

Then other things to avoid

  • Cat litter
  • Unwashed fruit and veggies
  • Raising your body temperature ie exercise, hot baths, saunas.
  • Fumes from cleaning products etc
  • pesticides
  • stress
  • tap water
  • electric blankets
  • microwaves
  • x-rays
  • lying on your back
  • fake tan
  • colouring your hair
  • tight clothing
  • under wire bras
  • vaccinations

And again probably so many more I’m forgetting.

Life goes on and there have been some things I haven’t avoided I haven’t been perfect.  Actually the more I worry about it the more things on this list not to do I have done.  Arghhh

I also have unrealistic paranoid thoughts l have no idea where they come from hahaha.

  • I don’t want my cats bums anywhere near me ha  I love my cats so much but they must only be around me front on haha.  What if I breathed in something harmful?
  • I don’t trust other drivers on the road I’ll slow down when other drivers have a give-way I’m now that person.  Going 80 on the motorway.
  • I don’t like plugging things in incase I get an electric shock
  • I’m scared of people.  Normal people.  What if they fall on me and knock me over or what if they attack me.  Who would do this it’s irrational
  • Loud noises
  • Falling down the stairs
  • Things I did before I knew I was pregnant
  • Feeling movements
  • Gluten and my food allergies
  • Aches and pains I experience
  • I worry about my size have I put on too much/not enough.  I worry about the size of my bump
  • I worry about my worrying!

It’s mad! I have nightmares!

Read this more as a funny entry then a… Katie is losing her mind entry… it’s the worst feeling but I guess this is all part of being a parent and I’ll keep working on that PMA  :-P

PostHeaderIcon Pretty Things

I can’t shop for clothes right now.  I can’t reason spending money on size 12 or 14 when I’m usually a size 8 or 10 and it would only fit me while pregnant…

I think I’ll live in singlets (tanks), yoga pants, ballet flats or maxi dresses.

  • Pearl nailpolish

Does this mean I’m old now I want to wear a pale shade instead of  my usual bright colours.  I don’t care.  It’s pretty

lime crime

make-up

Make-up is fun! I love lime crime

brass-knuckle-earrings

I haven’t been wearing earings lately.  I do like these

I should wear more jewellery seeing I’m dressing so casual.  There we go I’ve reasoned myself into jewellery shopping  ;-) haha

  • gold pendants
  • gold and diamond studs

iron-fist-wolfbeater-flat

These must be mine!

  • Purple and leopard print handbag I spied at Frutti (fave Wellington store)

PostHeaderIcon WHAT UP

News in my world..

I have resigned my job.  I loved my job at first if you read back over my past entries, but now I’m pregnant I feel I’ve been letting everyone down.  I’ve not been feeling like myself.  It isn’t worth it for me anymore, I never earned the commission I was lead to believe I would earn.

Health and happiness is number one

I was actually pregnant when I started this job but didn’t know at the time.  Ha it’s funny they asked me in my interview “not planning on having babies are you?” me “oh no no” haha – I was already pregnant.

Totally illegal question by the way I know.  I wasn’t really pressured into this either if you’re wondering.  Not really but kind of (we wont go there)

I’m not sleeping.  I have quite severe hip pain during the night.  I build a fort of pillows and put a pillow between my legs to try support my body but unsuccessfully.  It keeps me awake and I’ve not found anything that helps.  Anyone out there have any advice?! I’m going to see a physio soon.  Not sleeping is the worst…

Of course I’ll lose even more sleep when I have my newborn but by then at least I’ll have my precious baby to cuddle  <3 I can’t wait to meet him <3

I can deal with all the other discomforts I’ve come across during pregnancy but I can’t deal with this hip pain.  My main reason for my resignation.

While I’m funemployed I plan to keep on top of the laundry and housework, keep on top of my studying, spend more time seeing friends, be as healthy as possible with daily walks, yoga and the healthiest diet.  I’m hoping I will qualify for a sickness benefit or student allowance.  HOPEFUL

  • My parents are in Wellington this Monday I’m very much looking forward to that
  • My last day of work is Friday 20th August
  • I’m in Auckland that weekend for my baby shower.  Squee
  • I have midwife appointment 30th August
  • I’m going home for 4 days in September
  • I start antenatal classes soon

I recently had my 19 week scan which you can see below.  Special isn’t it! Baby was in a funny position all arms and legs together so it was hard to make sense of what I could see.  The sonographer was trying to determine the sex but couldn’t guarantee because of babies position.  She did say “most likely” a boy

OooOoOoOO
