Brief hello

[ailbhe]

Hello, world.

I'm still alive - there's somewhere between two and a half and five and a half weeks left until the baby's due, and I've just started to get the typical swelling. This week will be a bit manic, because the swelling in my hands is exciting enough to have bruised my knuckles, so I have to attempt to fit a midwife appointment in ahead of schedule, as well as blood tests, TENS appointment, aquanatal, antenatal, DIY and housework. I suspect the housework will fall by the wayside.

H&M regular fit UK size 20 clothes are now too small for me. I was a size 8 pre-pregnancy. H&M's largest available maternity clothes just about fit. I've only gained 11 kg, which is about the right amount, according to a few books.

I hope things go well.

Same.

I'll be curious to see how things turn out (and hope everything goes as well as can be expected).
