The Bump Blog!!

Your poor Mum Sandyann.  My kids have all been quite late to get teeth - 9 months has been my earliest tooth!!  But have not been bitten too much, so I am lucky in that respect.  Nicholas is seems to be starting to wean himself.  Last night before bed, he mucked around so much I took him off and just had cuddles.  But he did wake at 5am and I gave in and gave him a feed.  He then slept through till 6.30am, so well worth the feed!!!  He will be 19 months this week.  My baby is getting big!!!

Ten years later I am fitter than ever and probably in the best shape of my life! So I agree no need to worry... but try not to go overboard if you can help it... (I couldnt - I was eating lolly snakes by the packetful in the last month...) Send PM

Hi Bethduck, the main thing is to just eat healthily even if it is a bit more than usual.As you say, you are growing another little person. :) My eldest daughter craved icberg lettuce when she was pregnant and would sit and eat a whole lettuce in one go. :D I used to eat pumpkin scones with mashed banana on them. :>0 Send PM

I have definately 'popped' now and look pregnant (happened over the past 2 weeks).  I have been getting a few minor leg cramps but other than that, have been good. Last couple of day I have been sneaking in naps (definately close to that 3rd trimester now!) and am getting more tired, but to be expected.  Luckily there is nothing worth watching, so I am going to bed much earlier. Spent a fabulous 3 days in Melbourne last weekend with my Mum and sisters for a girlie weekend.  We managed to pack in enough - yum cha, pedicures and manicures, indian dinner, footy (Geelong v Collingwood - not a great result but so much fun to get to a match after about 13 years!), met one of my sister's new boyfriend, high tea and some shopping!  Was so lovely to not be responsible for anyone but myself for a couple of days! Hope you are travelling well Siam and all the other yummy mummys to be out there in WIU land! Send PM
