My big fat tummy - 12 Weeks

Had my first official driving lesson today, two hours. It went alright, not as bad as I thought it would be and he has the dual brake and clutch which makes me feel less nervous.

Decided to take a photo today, (12 weeks + 1 day) to prove to everyone that yes I do look pregnant, and the two people that offered me seats on the tube weren't' delusional. Unfortunately I'm not ready to look pregnant as far as work is concerned, I was hoping to keep it a secret for another two months. But with the rate my boobs and tummy are growing there is no chance.

Kev and I are doing a 25 mile bike ride tomorrow, I am driving the car to the garage as it's getting serviced on Monday and they said we could leave it there overnight with the bikes in the back and then biking home. Driving lessons and exercise all into one. We will have to have few pits stops on the way though. So over the world cup, impossible to engage in any form of conversation with Kev if the football is on.

11 Week Scan

I had another scan on Friday and everything is looking fine so far, he was even doing a little dance, which Kev found amusing. (Don't know if its a boy, but I keep on referring to it as a he even though I think we might have girl, - because almost everyone we know has had a boy or is having a boy.)

Work is going well, just really tired and its been hard thinking of excuses not to drink, I'm on two separate courses tomorrow and Thursday, both should be very helpful.

will post a photo in a weekend of my bump

Hardly anymore morning sickness anymore which is great. I'm just eating loads.

Last Day

Its my last day at the newspaper tomorrow, and I start my new job on Tueaday after the long weekend. I'm really looking forward to it but a bit apprehensive about the amount of hours I will have to work. I'm sure everything will be fine though.

First Craving

KFC - yuck

I think I had my first craving, KFC, just the chicken though, and I gave in, it was strangely satisfying yet disgusting at the same time. I hope its just a one off.

First Scan - 6 Weeks

The baby is in the right place and we saw the heartbeat, we both decided it looked like a little maggot in the scan.
We are both very relieved everything is normal. Still early days yet though, the scan showed the baby to be 6 weeks but I think I'm 7 weeks, apparently its quite hard to tell at this early stage. Still not going to tell any one else yet.
Had another driving lesson this morning with Kev, not a good combination with morning sickness.

Morning Sickness?

I have been feeling quite nauseous in the morning, but Kev thinks that I'm just being a drama queen. But if I am around 7 weeks, its generally the 6 week mark that you start to have symptoms.

Kevin and I are pregnant

Kevin and I are pregnant, and I have decided to create this blog to document our first baby.
We only just found out last week and are still not sure of the correct dates, but we think I'm around 7 weeks pregnant. We have only told our parents and no one else, I am having a scan this Friday to make sure everything is alright as I am having a few problems. Fingers crossed.

I got this idea from my friend Melissa who is having a baby in NZ.
