One hand on a golf club, the other on a tennis racket. That's what Phil has decided will happen on Day 1. "It's definitely going to be an athlete", he says as I roll my eyes with a smile. I'm just hoping for 10 fingers and 10 toes and a killer smile!!
We're having a little whipper snapper and are both over the moon! I'm due on the 20th January, which makes me almost 13 weeks pregnant and neither of us have got the patience to wait another 6 months to meet our little one. I should stop saying little. I'm quite sure it's going to be a gigantore newborn considering I'm 6ft and Phil 6'4". That makes my nether regions recede with raw fear, the prospect of pushing a watermelon through a pinhole. Sweet jesus. Think it's best to just brush that small physically impossible nightmare of a prospect to the side for now. Yep. Officially pushed aside.
Highlight of the pregnancy so far?
I've got a great rack. Lovin' it.
Lowlight?
My all too frequent and intense friendship with the good ol' porcelain bowl. Enough with the nausea already. Enooouuuughhhh!
So there you go. Big, life-changing, superb news for us Holmewoods. Ecstatic doesn't quite describe it. No doubt this blog will now become a way to document and share the highs and lows of the adventure ahead!!
A new chapter, with me, Phil and "The Athlete" (cue eye roll and cheeky smile)....Bring it on!
ps. How cute is the little hand in the pic?! I think it's holding a microphone up, singing along to Adele, as I do so often. Popstar in the making. Snap.
pps. How good is technology? So amazing to see the little one moving around and kicking its legs. Incredible to see. Especially when it's only 6.1cm long!! ;)

Oh bless that is wonderful news.
Sorry to hear about the sickness, it can be so overwhelming. Hopefully it will subside for you soon.
Thinking about the heat complaints all make sense now.
Dont listen to too many horror stories.

Wow! Every blog I read and every facebook friend is pregnant! Congratulations! I can't wait to read all about it!
Congratulations! How exciting!
Congratulations :) My birthday is January 20th too :)
SO excited for you!!! As far as that morning sickness - for me it finally went away around week 15, but Zofran was my best friend to help me survive in the meantime. Whew. On the rack side of things, I sadly outgrew my cute tailored blouses very quickly, so I had to pack them all up and put them away for the next year. How exciting! We will only be a month apart!!!
Congratulations! Just found you through another blog. What a fun journey you are on....I'm definitely going to follow along. Hope you feel better soon!
