Pregnancy

Other than Sophie's lung issue, my pregnancy was a breeze. I gained a total of 8kg throughout my pregnancy. I was thrilled to be able to still wear my wedding ring (i've seen friends whose fingers swell during pregnancy). I bought lots of maternity leggings but was lucky to be able to wear most of my pre pregnancy blouses.
Asos has gorgeous maternity outfits. I purchased most of my dress on sale at £10 per dress.

I was constantly hungry and would have rich tea biscuit with fresh milk wee hours in the morning especially during the 2nd and 3rd trimester.
Breakfast was the same everyday. Milo, bread with peanut butter and jam.
Somehow I never felt sick of it.
I ate whatever I felt like it but in moderation. I continued my weekly badminton session with my colleagues up to 20 weeks. I worked until the week of my due date.
Most people said I was mad but since my late husband works in Telford (2.5 hours drive from where we live) he comes back only on weekends, starting my maternity leave early would mean I will be bored at home, so I decided to continue to work to keep myself occupied. I made sure I take regular rest (take a short stroll to the office kitchen etc..) and very important, I took my daily vitamins (pregnacare) http://www.vitabiotics.com
