13/14 week update

So I figured I'm between 13 weeks and 14 weeks now. Apparently 14 weeks tomorrow according to the doc, but still 13 weeks according to me. So will do both updates at the same time :)

13 weeks pregnant:


14 weeks pregnant:
Baby is about the size of your fist. WOW!


So yesterday I go to my auditing meeting, and the accountant says to me (all sweetly, he's old) - oh are you carrying a baby or are you just getting fat? Ummm... lucky I'm pregnant otherwise I might have been slightly insulted. It was nice that someone noticed though without me telling them.

We also added a curtain to the baby's room this week. We'll be buying the cloth nappies in the next month or so, and I suppose I need to decide which travel system we're going with. Though we can get the pram later, more interested in the car seat at the moment.

Thanks for reading! We have the midwife appointment in 2,5 weeks - really looking forward to it! We'll book antenatal classes at the same time, considering I've done them already as part of my doula course - do you think she'll charge half price? HAHA fat chance.

I've had a bit of a cold this week, started on Tuesday evening - I was pretty achy yesterday, but I already feel so much better today. So maybe it was a 24 hour thing. My GP said I should just take Panado (what's the point in taking ANYTHING then I ask?) and some nose spray. But I've just been taking the recommended dose of Vitamin C for pregnancy (2000mg) or a bit less if I've had fruit that day and it obviously seems to be helping. No H1N1 here, people love to terrify you - specially when you're pregnant!

Love to all xx

  1. Get a system that comes with a car seat - much easier to manage... and biggest thing... make sure the pram is light and easy to manouver and FITS IN YOUR BOOT!!
    Don't underestimate the use for a pram... you can push baby around the garden in it if they won't sleep.. it's not only for going out ;)
