Have A Relationship, With Yourself First

I don’t understand why so many people I know are so determined on being in a relationship with someone, as though having a significant other is the only thing that could ever possibly define them, that they forget that maybe they should have a relationship with themselves first! Some of these people are serial daters, others casual and some divorced already once (or more) and yet they still haven’t figured this out yet.

It may sound cliché, but you really do need to learn to love yourself before you can truly ever love another.

Stop Touching Me!

I have never had an overwhelming desire to reach out and feel someone’s baby bump any more than I would their usual belly; it just isn’t natural to me to do that. Ok so, yes, jokingly grabbing my SIL or BFF’s boobs is a thing that has happened many times over the years and is weirdly kind of natural (to us) but that’s different! And if either of them reached out for the bump I probably wouldn’t even mind because, well, just because!

Warning: unless your DNA is inside me, or you are my SIL/BFF, be advised that I do bite!

Neverland And Disneyland

So, I have a new name for the obstetrics department at my hospital… Neverland! Don’t get me wrong, the nurses are all wonderful (as usual) but the front staff and patient wait times are atrocious!

And for whoever says that pregnancy is a magical time… well… I beg to differ, because it is definitely no Disneyland!

Let me explain…

Gender Reveal!

From the time we transferred this little embryo I was desperate to know what it was! I didn’t really mind either way; I just wanted to start decorating in my head, shopping, planning, coming up with names, etc…

So, naturally, as the weeks went on I tested every single old wives tale out there!

20 Weeks! Halfway There!

It feels like it was just yesterday that I POAS and found out we were pregnant, and now we are halfway there with 20 weeks or so left to go! Still don’t know if I will be induced early due to GD or if they will let things occur naturally so we can’t really be sure (can you ever?). So far though, the GD has been extremely well managed and I am very proud of myself for that!
