OK..so every morning i get up..feed my daughter..change her bum..make a cuppa..check this fab site...all im worrying about with this pregnancy is how on earth am i going to cope..like i have this little routine goin with Shannon..she plays with her toys while i type away on here..everyone's happy..but what about when there's two? God..i must b mad to have them this close together lol...but if other young mums can do it i can..i think haha!

Lastnight i had to go through ALL my daughters clothes and sort out what was too small etc..(took me 4 hours) after hours or "awww'ing" and "But can we can we keep these stteeven!" but to all my pleading he refused as they will not come in handy for a boy!!! Piled all the clothes in sizes 0-3, 3-6 etc and went to bed..got up this morning it looked as though a bomb had dropped directly in my living room..to my horror at exactly 9:10am a got a knock at the door..it was the repair man..(bare in mind i do not look fantastic on a morning..shannon was trying all ways to pull the hoover onto her head annnd all i could say to him was "excuse the mess") he must have thought i was mad! So after the embaressment of looking like i live in a hovel i had NO MILK for a cuppa! The day..quite frankly cudnt get much worse! (P.S Shannon has been a rather good girl actually..not often i get to say that so ive wrote it down! lol)

The last 3 days ive woken up with a chronic bad back..it kills! I dunno if its the way he's laid or it im going to have this pain the rest of my pregnancy but i didnt have ANY bad backs when i was pregnant with my daughter. A few people ive mentioned it to said they had it when they carried their sons so its not looking good for me! Im not amused! If anyone knows any way i can ease this pain please let me know!!

Hey there ladies! God im 27+2 n its sooo dragging now lol! I cant believe my daughter is 1 on the 27th!!!! (where the hell has the time gone)...i got sum advice to u preggy mamas..enjoy the time their tiny cuz it really duz fly over! Shannon is nearly walking now and doesnt like loads of hugs and kisses anymore (unless u wait til shes asleep then cuddle her haha).

Anyway about this pregnancy..other than it dragging over is going pretty well. Ive only put 1lb on so far so i am very happy lol..i think im also going through a 'nesting' period cuz my house has never been so shiny n clean haha! (am hoping its not just a phase).

My bad backs seemed to have cleared off up to now..(touch wood) apart from needing to pee a few million times a day all is going good. xxx

Well, I had a midwife appointment today..found out that my baby boy is only sizeing up at 28 weeks when he should be between 32-33 weeks (works out a cm a week). So my midwife booked me in for a scan tmoro at 10:30..im so worried though i really hope its nothing serious.

Everyone keeps sayin he's maybe just a small baby but it doesnt put my mind at ease any! Midwife says worst case scenario would be that my placenta isnt working properly resulting in low growth rate which would mean they would like to deliver soon. But now i think im just worrying..spose thats wat mothers do lol. Anyway i'll update tmoro after the scan! Fingures crossed all is ok!! X
