Well, I've lost my lovely new pregnancy diary so I haven't written in it for about 3 weeks. Poo. Thought I'd better start making entries somewhere else so I can update it when I find it again.
My belly is starting to get a little bit bigger, which is great. I'm finally starting to look preggers. I've put on about 3 kilos so far. My digestion isn't fantastic - I'm burping & hiccuping a lot but that's about all. We had a 37 degree day here last week which really knocked me about. I think I was a bit dehydrated. I had a couple of dizzy spells & felt quite sick but I feel much better now. Had a rotten night's sleep last night even with my magic pregnant lady pillow but I don't know if I'm still recovering from the heat or it was just sleeplessness because I came back to work today after a whole week off.
Moda wants me to do some exercise since the labour at the end will be like running a marathon and I'll need to be fit for it... But I just don't feel like it at all!
I s'pose I should get into a routine now as it's only going to get harder. Oh yeah - I'm also peeing like a champion at the moment.
The last time I was actually physically sick was boxing day (twice). It's always after an event! Day after John Farnham concert, day after exam, day after xmas etc. I just need to take it a bit easy. From memory that's about 14 spews so far, but I'll need to double check my diary to make sure.. when I eventually find it!!
I have a doctor's appt coming up this week to get a referral for a 20 week ultrasound. I thought it was a gyp that I have to go in again (why can't I just take my last ultrasound results? They know I'm really pregnant!) so I asked my nurse friend and she said it's simply to keep the GP in the loop. There's no internal methods for hospitals or clinics to update the GPs on their patients so we keep having to make new appointments for them so they know what's going on. Hmmm. Seems like a sneaky way to get extra money from unnecessary consultations to me...
53 kilos.
