Public Announcement

[ailbhe]

It gives me great pleasure and a small attack of butterflies in the stomach to announce that I am pregnant again. The new baby is due in August. I think there's only one again. (Currently, I also think it's a girl).

Everything is going fine so far, except that my maternity swimsuit doesn't fit very well. Still, it covers more of me than my other swimsuit, so the fact that it fills with air and billows out underwater will just have to be seen as free amusement for the patrons of Rivermead Leisure Centre.

I shouldn't be announcing this for another week at least, since I'm not quite 11 weeks pregnant yet, but I can't seem to manage that. Last time I waited until 12 weeks to actually announce it and it nearly killed me.

The really good news about this pregnancy is that I've got my old midwife, who knows exactly what happened last time, and is willing to accompany me when I go to hospital for antenatal appointments and for the actual c-section.

The only slight downside is that I can't treat my little inflammation until I'm not pregnant anymore. But honestly, that's not a big deal.

I have been signing up for loads of free marketing gumf. People love sending pregnant people free toiletries and teensy weensy tubs of Sudocrem. It's oddly addictive.
