30 Weeks

Yes, I know it's late to start writing my pregnancy journal, but better late than never!! It's hard to believe I only have 10 weeks to go, I really feel like this pregnancy is starting to get somewhere now.

I had my last day at work yesterday, this is it now. I've been counting down to this day for a couple of months, and it's quite scary to think that the next thing I'll be counting down to is my due date!! So my first day of maternity leave has been... pretty unproductive!! I have all these plans but my body doesn't seem to care that I want a lot of things done before baby arrives.
It started well at least, I managed to sleep for eight hours, only waking up twice to pee, which is an absolute godsend and hasn't happened in... months. I don't even remember the last time I had a decent night's sleep. Then I got up with Daddy Bear, had breakfast whilst he complained that I'd kept him up all night fidgeting and snoring (ha!) and sent him off to work.

Things I actually managed to do today
1. clean my kitchen (Daddy Bear is a freak and hates the smell of bleach so I have to do it when he's out)
2. wash kitchen floor (still forgot to buy a mop, was done on hands and knees)

and then I went all dizzy and horrible because I hadn't eaten and had to make lunch and lie on the sofa. So other than a small pile of ironing and a load of washing, that was as exciting as my day got today, don't pretend you aren't jealous.

BUT, my New Year's Resolution was to eat better in the evenings, as I can get slack and lazy, and Tesco's Italian microwave meals become my best friend, and so far have managed it pretty well.

Tonight, we have cottage pie. Not exciting, but homemade from scratch as everything i have eaten for dinner in the past week has been - and I'm very proud (despite sitting here eating a packet of salt and vinegar Walkers...)

Daddy Bear is napping, but Baby bear seems excited at the prospect of food at least, showing me by sticking a pair of tiny feet out my right side and a bum up under my ribs.

I'm going to waft the smell of cooking meat towards Daddy Bear and see if he rouses
Hopefully tomorrow is a little more exciting!!

Eagerly awaiting the arrival of Baby Bear
