6 weeks

Still feeling really good at this stage.. I have had no Morning Sickness as yet thankfully, I have been having little waves of sickness but nothing really.. I am hoping that unlike my first pregnancy I don't get sick. All is well I have been getting some maternity clothes organised for summer (my worst nightmare being pregnant for our wonderful Aussie Summer) thankfully I wont bear the brunt of the pregnancy in the hottest months. Today we picked up our pram we bought it second hand as we sold all of Kai's baby things which is a pity but also nice to get new stuff for bubs. Here it is. It is so easy to menouver and will be great as a bassinett. I am hoping to get Kai and 'skateboard' for the back where he can stand so I can still enjoy my walking with both the both of them on board! I went out for dinner with the girls from my original mums group, we try and get out at least once a month. It was a lovely meal and as always a great belly laugh. We spoke about a holiday towards the end of next year and threw ideas about Cairns or Perth. It is an idea that we have bought up a few times but lets make this one happen!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well that is about all from me for now. I still haven't made an appointment at the doctors but will ring them on Monday and get in. Take Care xx

5weeks 4days

Well my first post... A little about me for those passing by from other blogs... I am a 26 year old in Melbourne, Australia. I have a boy - Kaitiaki who was 3 in July. A puppy Stella who is a Staffi and just on 6 months old, a cat Tori, who decides every few months to trek back to our old house quite a distance from here and is down to a 5 day trek before I find her there. We found out last Tuesday with a HPT (home pregnancy test) that we are pregnant. Hooray. Very early days at the moment but still very exciting. Our DS (darling son) now just over 3 it is a great age for him to experience mummies growing belly and the excitement of a new brother or sister. A lot made sense when I found out as I am not a day napper at all but over the past couple of weeks I have found myself on the couch asleep while the sun was still up!!! Unheard of for me!! So far I have had no sickness or troubles so fingers crossed as with Kai I had the works and to top it off had pre-eclampsia at the end on total bed rest then induced to finally have and emergency cesarean 7 hours later.. I am also a Doula so looking forward to putting a lot of training into practice for myself. I am hoping for and aiming at a VBAC with absolutely minimal to no intervention unless absolutely necessary. Well that is my story thus far, I will be booking in to see my doctor sometime next week and get a referral to an OB. So have more info then.. xxx
