So, we have 8 weeks left till due date (which is crazy!). Ive not been feeling too great - theres a bug been going round at work, and I've got it! So i was up at 1am for hours. I'll not go into details - but its not nice.
Ive had to call in sick for work again today - which I'm not very happy with myself about. As a number of people off my team are already off with the same thing :( But i feel so so tired and my tummy is hurting and making the strangest noises.
My baby bump seems to have got massive recently, and Ive definitely got the waddle on when I walk.
I'm still not sleeping too well and feeling sick again - with dizzy spells :(
I also have 28 days until I'm off for maternity. Woop Woop (cant come quick enough)

30 weeks and 4 days pregnant
Well, D-Day (Due Date) is getting closer and closer, I'm beginning to feel more and more uncomfortable as the days go on. I'm having trouble sleeping recently so if i seem a bit distant and quiet - I'm sorry.
At the moment I'm shopping for moses baskets for our little bambina. Its so confusing - theres so many and they're so lovely. Here are a few that i like so far:

29 weeks and 3 days pregnant
So, there's only 10 weeks and 4 days till my due date (and to be honest I'm terrified!)
I really do feel that's its strange that you go to your antenatal classes so late on in pregnancy - i really want someone who knows to sit down with me and explain whats going to happen when i actually go into labour (oh my gosh!).
I'm very distracted by that thought and give myself banging headaches because of it :( need to calm down I think. My hormones are all over the place and i can feel myself getting irritable - it doesn't help that I'm not sleeping properly, going to the loo about a million times a day and generally just feeling extremely tired whenever i try to do anything - everything seems to suck the energy out of me.
Ive been having slight period pain type feelings for the past couple of days - only mild - but a reminder that everything 'down there' is gearing up for the big event.
Ive had a number of very vivid dreams lately - one where the baby was a boy - and not so much of a baby, with a mouth full of teeth! I was like.... 'i cant breastfeed him, and.....he's a boy! everything we have is for a girl! aaarrrgh!' ha ha. Mental.
Ive been off the past two days - and i think i really needed it. I'm so tired and can NEVER get comfortable - i think that's the worst thing at the moment. That, and the horrible burning sensation in my groin when I've been walking for a little bit - after some research on the Internet and speak to my midwife I think i have 'Pelvic Girdle Pain' and its not nice I tell you!
Last week I came home from work one day to discover this:
Stu and my mum and dad had been very busy sorting the room. Putting the wardrobe up (that was in a million pieces), putting the curtain rail and curtains up and giving the whole room a good tidy.
We still have lots to tidy up (well I do). When i start on my maternity leave I'm going to dedicate some time into selling some bits and bobs on Ebay - some life laundry - mostly clothes that I don't wear anymore - and never really wore in the first place.
I think we have finally chosen our pram as well:

Its a silver cross surf and very cool! Hopefully, it will still be on offer when we go to pay the first instalment next week - it comes with a free car seat worth £100 - bonus.
