Well, apparently my lentil has doubled in size since last week and is now the size of a blueberry according to one book, or a coffee bean according to another. I guess I’ll go with the fruit option as coffee is a big no-no at the moment!
Remember my rekindled love of ‘Sandwich Spread?’ Hmm, well now I can hardly bring myself to even write about the stuff! BLEURGH! Consequently, I have a huge jar of the bloody stuff sat in the fridge which makes me grimace every time I go in there!
I seem to be having a bit of a problem with food in general at the moment! I feel really sick practically all the time and I eat purely to stop myself feeling sick. Yep, you heard it right folks..I’m eating as a necessity and not for sheer gluttonous pleasure as usual!!
Unfortunately after I have eaten something, no matter how small, I end up either getting indigestion or feeling like I’ve gorged myself on a 10 course banquet! Normally both!
I just don’t know what I fancy eating anymore. I’m definitely getting my old pregnancy prejudice against the old courgette and anything else remotely slimy such as peppers and mushrooms. This could cause a problem as these tend to feature in about 80% of my cooking!
I’ll tell you what though, I think I could just about manage a ‘Magnum’ whilst pondering the question of exactly what it is I fancy!!!!
I finally told Mum and Dad!!! Hurrah! I think that they were pleased if not somewhat bewildered by our madness!!! What a relief! In fact, this verbal release must be infectious as I even found myself telling the lady at the checkout in ASDA! Have no idea where it came from, I just blurted it out!! I think that I felt the need to justify myself wittering on about trying to find a pasturised Brie as if it were some kind of Holy Grail!
Well, I am pregnant you see!!!!!!
Oh well, she smiled kindly and helped me pack my shopping, if somewhat sympathetically!
So how many people have I told now? Family, close friends, yoga teacher, neighbour (well she is a midwife so it doesn’t count!) doctor, random woman at ASDA….Yep! I think that’s all!!
I can’t wait til I get to tell the kids, it’s so frustrating not to be able to say anything to them and share my excitement but I just have to wait a little bit longer. I couldn’t bear having to tell them that the baby wasn’t there anymore and having to explain everything.
Hang on in there Baby Blueberry!
