Long Overdue Post - Life Update


Two Years! It has been almost two whole years since I last posted anything - and it's only now that I'm sat with a cup of tea, laptop open, that I realise how much I've missed it.

This post is purely as an update, to show how far I have come in these two years, and to show where I'm currently at.

I suppose I'll start with the biggest change, and the one that will have the biggest influence on my future posts...





On December 4th 2015 - after being ill for weeks - I finally bit the bullet and peed on a stick! This was the result. Whilst initially I was filled with panic, this soon wore off and it didn't take long for me to become very excited.

It hasn't been the easiest time, but I have not had a difficult pregnancy by any stretch. I've had horrendous heartburn and I'm currently at the stage where standing up, rolling over in bed and just general movements have become a struggle - but both myself and my little pickle are happy and healthy, so I have no complaints. 

Due to some childhood health problems, I have had extra scans to keep an eye on baby - and I have included the best of the bunch here...



First Scan - 13 weeks - 14.01.2016



3D Scan - 29 Weeks - 05.05.2016


I'm not gonna lie, having to have extra scans has both it's pros and cons. Whilst it's been lovely to get extra opportunities to see my little pickle, I panic every time that they will find something wrong. But at yesterdays scan (37 weeks), the doctor has decided that I don't need to be seen again until I'm in labour. YAY :)


I'll throw in some pictures of how enormous I have become, along with some cutesy things I've bought.

Cute shoe collection - they're so tiny!



So that's the biggest update since my last post in October 2014. Since then I've also got engaged, moved in with a boy (expect some posts about the annoying things men do) and finally got a job I enjoy and excel at.

Overall, my life is pretty darn good right now, and I have grown so much as a person in the last few years - I would even go as far to say that I'm proud of myself. So I'll end this update with a picture of my engagement ring and an updated photo of me (I've had a lot of hair changes).





If you've made it this far then congratulations :) and thanks for bearing with me whilst I had a life makeover and neglected my blog. I am planning to get some posts pre-written before little one arrives and will hopefully manage to get a routine going and some regular posts.

Thanks for sticking with me

BYEEEEEE xxx
