I have had a few requests from friends to see a photo of my belly as they say they don't believe from other photos that there is a baby there. So you'll find one at the bottom of the page :) I may even do a weekly shot as more of a remembrance for me.
I am feeling good, baby is still moving well and I can eat like a horse. I love Indian food again which is a relief considering where I live. I crave veges and dairy products and meat. Come to think of it food in general is a craving. I do not have the usual junk food cravings, well, maybe occasionally. An ice cream is always good.
It's getting harder to kick my leg up and over the scooter when I get off but I can still manage and am sure I will for a few months yet. The car we can borrow from time to time is out of action for now so the scooter or walking is the method of transport for us. The kids enjoyed pointing out to me that I actually carried home 10kgs of goods from the shop today. 2kg flour + 2kg sugar etc etc... it adds up I guess but I enjoyed the walk anyway.
Indian clothing is brilliant for pregnancy. Adjustable waist ties, big loose tops and cool cotton all are great and no need to buy different or extra clothing.
I almost forgot to say that my order of nappies "flips" arrived today. They are cloth style inserts and will work well here as our rubbish has to be burned and the thought of burning disposables is just pure yucky. So I now have 18 inserts hanging on the line as they need to be pre washed five times for maximum absorbancy and little lemon and lime covers (non gender specific). It was cheaper to get these sent from the USA than order within India. It always pays to do your research. Thanks to those who made it possible for us to get these. At least now babies bottom will be covered... appreciated muchly. (yes I know that's not a real word)
I am enjoying pregnancy.
