well.. it’s happening.. i’m starting to feel more pregnant now.. and my ickle bump is slowly growing.. i’ve started feeling movement.. well i think i’ve been feeling it for the last couple of weeks.. but more so now.. it’s more sorta stop-me-in-my-tracks kinda movement.. and yet, strangely.. this still all seems so surreal..

i’m finding i can’t move about as much as i used to.. kinda like the middle section of my body has this invisible splint that makes me sit a certain way.. and take it easier when getting up.. and preventing any fast movement.. tis odd..

the other morning i swear lil wriggler was laying in a somewhat transverse position.. it felt weird.. i just wanted to kinda push him back into a comfortable position.. insteada feeling like the sides of my uterus were gonna pop out..

i dunno what the hell he’s doing in there.. but he’s letting it be known that he exists and is certainly kicking about.. i found out today via an email from babycentre.co.uk.. that during this next week (my 16th week), he’ll discover his first new toy.. the umbilical cord.. and will grab at it.. *smiles* .. which i thought was kinda cute.. i know its something i woulda done

not much happening on the side affects front.. my diabetes still seems well managed.. i have found out my blood type (A-Positive).. and have tested negative for the likes of HIV, Syphillis, Hepatitis and Sickle Cell.. which is always handy to know.. *chuckles* ..not that i woulda done anything to actually be at risk of contracting the first 3.. better safe than sorry

my nausea has subsided.. i have felt the oncomings of indigestion.. but only very mild symptoms.. im not particularly craving.. but im starting to get the feeling that even if i was craving.. i prolly wouldnt notice..lol if anything.. cheese and milk tend to be consumed more lately.. but whether that’s a craving or not.. i have no idea *shrugs*

ooh.. my eyesight has altered a lil.. im finding i hafta wear my glasses more frequently.. so outta making sure that i dun strain my eyes too much.. i’ve just been wearing them when watching tv and when im focusing on anything thats more than a metre away..

we’ve chosen names now.. well we had a pretty good idea of what we were gonna call the lil wriggler from the moment we found out i was pregnant.. but we’re still keeping our mouths shut about the names for now..

ah well.. over the next month.. i have an appointment with my diabetes consultant.. my 16 week appointment with my midwife.. and an eye screening.. here’s hoping all is still going well beneath the surface
