Soooooooooo I uploaded a post I wrote up a few months ago and oh how things have changed. I was tired then but NOW, now the Sleep deprivation is completely different. Its anew level of tired. Baby + sleep??? Whats that I am going to update this so I can hopefully look back and the sleepless nights are a thing of the past. I know my LO (3months) can sleep 8 hours at a time, its just not when it should be. Today is Tuesday 13 th February 2018, and last night my baby drank me like a tap! We finally went to bed at 7am this morning. Where he had 5.5 hours sleep until I woke him up because, day isn’t night. Eventually I will have set night time routine as for now I am just going to try keep him calm at night and active during the day. Ok so the rest of the days until the 18 th was a blur. However, I feel we may be on to something a few days prior I ‘fliped’him. Sounds like abuse but no. its an oldwives tale. Apparently you flip your baby head ove...

5 weeks in (23rd) and I have finally had a little bit of sleep. Last night baby K slept for 3 hours with an hour and a half break then another 3 hours!! That may sound very sad but iv never been so happy (apart from him arriving of course) The previous night (22nd) had me in tears. Baby woke up at 1:30am and just would not go back to bed. I had to seek help from mum at 7:30am who made him sleep at 8:45 for all of 15mins LOL. He then went to sleep at 10am phew! Still this was ridiculous.  Last night we bathed him, gave a little massage, fed him and put him to bed. He seemed to like this.- I wont hold my breath thinking things will always happen like this. 24th November It happen again! 6 hours of sleep!! He slept for 3 hours at a time during the night. I was so pleased. (TBC)

Third trimester Writing this as a late post and a new mum J Were my sickness began to subside and sounds weird but the reality of really having a baby finally kicked in. This was the best and worst of the pregnancy. I had some really good days and some really bad. I came to terms with vomiting as a way of life now. Work was coming to an end, babies due date was getting closer it was all about getting final bits now. I got all my stretch marks at the last 2 months of pregnancy!- ( after thinking I got away with it) A month before my due date (8 th September) I got this rib pain, which made me go A&E. they gave me strong medication, and sent me home. The pain did not go and I was told nothing could be done, until I have the baby… great. The pain was bearable and I got use to it, so no harm. Needless to say, I got very impatient and restless in the last month. Daddy’s birthday being 7 th , mine the 17 th and due date 22 nd I was very, VERY nervo...

Still being sick… I was told by so many; I would feel ‘fine’ by now J So why am I still vomiting and collapsing all the time. I began to feel really sorry for myself. Pregnancy was becoming more of an illness then this lovely experience and journey that a lot of people seem to speak of. I know a child is for life and this is only 9 months of my own but I could never imagine going through this again. I am mostly upset about the fact I am unable to do things I enjoy, such as, make Youtube videos and bake. The energy to put any sort of make up on and stand next to the mixer ugh… I don’t even eat cake much anymore, so the thought of making it L Going back to work my pregnancy is still a secret for now, I am not being sick as much as I was before, but running to the toilets from time to time Is getting noticeable. I went to Portugal at 23- 24 weeks and the plane ride was painful J nonetheless I was getting some so happy. I was still throwing up on holiday however, ...

First trimester Woohoo! Im pregnant! Let me just start of by saying, women go through too much. At the age of 24 I felt I was ready, nonetheless I still cried when I found out. It is scary. All I immediately thought was… Sh*t, the baby has to grow… and it has to come OUT! (Which obviously I knew came with pregnancy) I realised I was pregnant pretty much as soon as I got pregnant. I felt sick L the sickness has stayed with me ever since. I found out I was pregnant around two weeks in (which makes it 4). Being pregnant and having Hyperemesis Gravidarum! I was signed off from work about….. for about 2 months and iv been sick ever since J What I could eat… Nothing that would stay down. I lost my appetite big time. I actually became scared to eat. Being scared to eat isn’t good especially whilst pregnant, if I do not have enough food in my body for the baby the baby will start to feed of my body. ‘Sounds lovely right’ My energy levels were very ...

I will start to upload posts about my pregnancy experience!
