Owwwwwwwwwwwwww... (whinge ahead!)

Boy are my pelvic muscles ever starting to hurt, I feel like a real old lady sometimes, because I'm very aware of how 'heavy' things are getting when I have to move around (mainly standing up or sitting down)... and consequently my back has kicked it up a notch, and I begged hubby for a quick massage last night so I could at least sleep Plus I'm starting to feel a bit sick again every so often, but rather than constant, lurking nausea, it'll either be dry retching like the sort Paws is struggling with, or simply an immediate and urgent need to vomit Am trying even harder now to really stick to eating "little and often", although it's hard when I'm around the foods I love and want to indulge a bit.

Was also quite happy to admit today that I am a shopaholic, was tidying / organising a bit before today's open home at our place, and realised just how much baby stuff we have already accumulated !! Three plastic storage bins full, one with clothes and toys and other bits, one with mostly just clothes, and one with nappies, baby powder and baby wipes etc. THEN there's a small carry bag with a few odd ends in it, plus the larger items that sit on their own... ! Hehehe... I had to ask hubby to make sure we didn't go to Botany Downs to shop today as I wouldn't have been able to restrain myself from going into Baby City, or coming out with something either As mentioned in the 'bump' thread we just went to Pakuranga and all I splurged on were some of those Glassons Breast Cancer tshirts - they have gone back to their original sizing / style, and I find them quite comfy, and so far they still stretch over the sprout.

Righto so... that's me for now, I think !

i cant help my self if i see something cute for james i just gotta have it but i put it on layby so not to go over broad but its so much fun!!!

ooh jax i'm envious! i so badly want to start shopping for my new baby, i had so much fun 'preparing' last time when i was pregnant sadly, this time we have so much stuff already and money is a bit tighter so i won't be able to go as crazy. we're waiting for our anatomy scan to find out what kind we're having and then i can go nuts on boy stuff, or restrain myself in the girl's section with just a few bits and pieces.
i found a nice hot bath before bed really good for relaxing all the muscles in my back, and definitely keep hubby going with the massages too!

Haha Emma - putting the old set on Trade me?

I love pumpkin patch. before jake i was againest it as it is really quite expensive, however the clothes look so neat on, and Jake is one rough little boy and the clothes seem to wear really well, his pants still are tearing around the knees depsite being fallen on constantly! so in theory, we SAVE money, by not habing to buty as much...
