Keeping Healthy

Everyone has replied with positive feedback about this website, so hopefully I can keep it interesting enough for all of you :-) Thank you to everyone who has left comments or emailed me.

Last Monday was a fun day for me. I spent the day telling my colleagues including my boss, all of whom were very happy and supportive, which is great and certainly will make things easier while I keep working.

The good thing for me so far is that I have been keeping really well. I am certainly noticing the tiredness and have become a bit of a Nana going to bed at 9.30pm during the week, but I am told that the tiredness starts to ease in the second trimester so hopefully its looking up for me.

I have noticed that smells are something that I am more in tune to since I have become pregnant, particularly noticeable is cigarette smoke. The other day my boss came over to my desk to talk to me and I almost started to choke in the wake of his ashy breath. I had the brilliant idea to spray perfume to cover up the smell only to cough and splutter at the stench of that too. I am not sure whether that is baby brain or just plain blond!

Anyway, morning sickness, touch wood, so far I have only had a couple of spits, which I am very grateful for. I have friends and family who have been very sick throughout their pregnancy, but so far for me, no worries. It has been kind of weird actually, almost like because I have been so healthy and Mojo so small at the moment that it almost doesn’t feel like I am pregnant. The scan on Friday will clear up that feeling pretty quickly I can imagine.
