Heart Burrrrrn... the worst thing ever!



Last night was a terrible night, I don't think I slept for more than an hour at a time and the Rennie's and milk were just not cutting it :(
I didn't have heartburn until the last trimester with my son, and now its here already? What the heck? I'm wondering how I am going to cope with it if it's here to stay, it makes night time torture especially. And then the next day I am so sleep deprived and
ratty. Beware!

I think I am going to have to invest in a HUGE comfy pillow so I can sit upright and a XL bottle of gaviscon to drink from the bottle!!

Anyway, enough moaning and back to the delights of pregnancy- My bloaty bump 5weeks exactly... (wearing a cool pair of trousers here that my dear Aston got to my Birthday, however... I cannot sit down in them as I found out when we went out for that meal last Friday and there was no way I was sitting down let alone fitting in any food if I didn't undo them... Snazzy!)






And some more tests;
The top test is a Pregnancy test Taken at 4 weeks 6 days... lovely solid lines... I think this is why I keep testing but I havent tested since getting this. Perhaps I am now feeling satisfied that I am indeed preggo! :D
The bottom test is another OPK! hahaha I love it!!!

sleepy!

is it bed time yet? It's 2.30 and I'm sitting here trying to work but I can barley keep my eyes open. I think I am going to have to take a nap! It funny because I don't remember feeling tired at all with my first or getting many symptoms at all, this time however I am getting a fair few, heartburn probably being the worst so far. I am hoping that morning sickness stays away just as it did with my first pregnancy. Perhaps it will be a girl? Chinese Gender Calenders are predicting a girl for me!?

I am finding particularly hard to focus on work at the moment, I guess its a mixture of the excitement of being pregnant and feeling constantly tired.

I'm off to take a nap for a bit, else I don't think my eyes will be open to make tea when the boys are home!

Shouting from the roof tops

I am engaged! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Im getting married!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, finally, Aston popped the question! and of course I said yes :)

We went out for a lovely meal on Friday, a yummy Tapas bar in Solihull. We scoffed our faces full of tasty delights, sipping on fruitizer- the adult soft drink ;) After Aston was insistent on a walk by the moonlit River Avon... a beautiful sight but BOY was it cold... *shiver*
We walked up and back down the river, huddled close keeping warm. He'd come prepared with big coats for us both :) On the way back down, I suddenly found him stopping and getting down on one knee holding a beautiful ring. OMG! He popped the question and of course i said yes, all excited and smitten. So now we are engaged and have a wedding to plan too!!!

4 week milestone...


I am very early on in the pregnancy but I feel like today is sort of a milestone. Today the witch is due, having found out very early at 9dpo and I am anxious that she stays away! She usually visits in the morning after a temperature dip overnight... my temps are still sky high and I am still feeling uber pregnant! :) Im trying not to worry too much and thinking of all the positives... I am going to have a baby this year!!! OMG!

To take away some of the stress of today, i thought I would satisfy my urge to Pee on a stick by using an OPK instead of a pregnancy test... it seems the OPKs pick up more HCG than they ever picked up my OV surges!

Look at this OPK!
