our winter baby
Thanks so much for all your lovely comments about the bump. I’m loving this belly of mine and since reaching the second trimester my energy has come bounding back with a sweet vengeance. The first few weeks when this baby was really forming were challenging. So many mothers say the pain of birth is a blur only days after and I would say the same for the first trimester. I forgot how debilitating the tiredness is and this time, how extreme the nausea can get. In saying that I had days of reprieve between the days of lying in bed and my boys were patient and nurturing with me. I said in one of my very few posts back in December that I just had to do what was most important, not what was most urgent. It was rather serendipitous considering I was feeling worst in the weeks and days leading up to Christmas. But my strategy worked and I’m going to take it with me through this pregnancy. Doing what’s most important for me, this baby and my family. Not what’s most urgent.
Congratulations!
such a beautiful time! curl up lovely lady and let there be four in the bed.
congratulations xx
so happy for you – enjoy the coming months as a trio! x
I have an Autumn and a Winter baby, and I love more than anything in the world those early weeks at home, snuggled and bundled together. Sending you best wishes.
Very precious picture! I'm glad that you are feeling so good now 🙂
Best wishes to you! I´m due in March so it´s autumn baby for us! So happy! Blessings for the journey lady!

oh a winter babe.
ps. the cream couch is the tiny cheap one from ikea…it fits and i have no worries.
Gorgeous words. There really is something amazing about the clarity that new life allows.
Huge congratulations!
You are making me feel quite broody, although I had horrific nausea with both (I lost 3 stone in weight) so maybe I will stick with the two I have!
great to see you again,
Emma x
