Summer week 11

Sorry if i put anyone off the idea of pregnancy last week as things are definately better this week.
Monday morning started very well and i realised that the sickness has subsided!!! yay.
Everything is not quite perfect yet though. My boobs ache like hell (still the same size though!) and my appetite is not fully back to normal but at least i can eat without wanting to throw up which is a move in the right direction.
The only new thing i am experiencing this week is heart palpitations. Not sure if this is a pregnancy thing or very unrelated but they started on monday and have got worse throughout the week (had 15 today already and it is only 2.30pm).
Going to the doctors tomorrow to get it checked out just to be on the safe side but i am sure its just a hormonal or anxiety thing.*
Starting to get excited now. I have the main scan on the 21st Feb and as long as everything is ok i will be going shopping with my mummy for the first of the baby stuff.
My sister went to NY last week and got baby henden an i heart NY babygrow - how cute!!!
Anyway things are definately better this week but the myth about pregnant women losing brain cells is definately true i'm afraid!
* Have been to docs today and these heart things do not seem to be pregnancy related. Have to have an ECG and blood tests next week which will hopefully get to the bottom of it.

Do what makes you most happiest...

This is something I have long forgotten but something I am aiming to rectify. I have been looking inwardly for a while now as I realised I have lost myself a bit. I have spent so long being mum, wife, councillor, chauffer, chef, cleaner, dog walker business owner etc etc etc (you get the idea) that I don't really know who I am anymore or what makes me tick. My son asked me last Mothers day what I would like to do as it was 'my day' - I honestly couldn't answer and my 11 year old boy just said "that's really sad". He was absolutely right, that is sad! When did I just stop living my own life to serve everyone else? I like to paint and have recently made time to complete a run of adult paint by numbers to decorate my living room with. I also started doing acrylic paintings and watching some Bob Ross for inspiration. This is a good start but I'm not passionate about it. Today I remembered what I used to be passionate about and that was writing so I am back...

Kat didn't get the cream as she isn't allowed :(

I have done a lot of reflection since my last post and made some positive steps. One of my pet hates is when people moan constantly about situations they have complete control over but are just too lazy to make the change needed. So with this in mind I am now following a super healthy diet. I think my stomach may still be in shock with the amount of fruit and vegetables it is receiving. Most of the time I think I am hungry I have a drink of water and it turns out I wasn't hungry at all. I have also started exercising again. Up until a week ago I was attending a super intensive boot camp three times a week but had to stop due to the pregnancy as the low impact version is just a waste of time. So on Thursday and Friday last week I had time off work and took my daughter out for ridiculous long walks. By Saturday my ankles started to swell a bit. Saturday was not a good day at all. I went on a mission to get a dress for my friend’s wedding that evening. Everything I tried on looke...

Time for a career change

I have worked at my company for almost 15 years... yes that's right 15 years. When I began at the very young age of 18 it was just a job, something to provide me with money and perhaps an extended set of friends but nothing more. The company itself specialises in reputation (or media) analysis which usually leaves people staring blankly at me uttering the now famous words "oh, ok that sounds...interesting". In a nutshell (and in no way doing this industry justice) we track and measure the effectiveness of communication activity and what impact it really makes to the company - so is your PR/ Marketing actually doing what it should be. In a recent job interview the MD of a marketing agency said "wow, it's amazing what these companies will pay for" which I smiled politely to as I wanted the job but in all honesty I was a little hurt. Over time I began to see this more as a career and became quite ambitious to great effect. Several promotions later I becam...
