At the mo I'm loving the fact that I know my big belly actually has a purpose! Oh, and the little flutters I'm just starting to feel from time to time!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I loved:
Afternoon naps. My foot spa. Feeling my baby move. The happy preggy hormones. Feeling utterly feminine and like my body was doing exactly what it was designed for. Like NikkiB I loved being pregnant too and am looking forward to getting in the family way again soon. -------------

Milk, milk and more milk. In fact any kind of dairy product. I just couldn't get enough!
But then that could have something to do with the fact that I had really awful heartburn, and milk seemed to help with that a little. ------------- http://www.cushytush.co.nz - |
