You know how some days, you’re just like “Bleurgh”?
Today was one of them. It started with my having to get up for a wee at 5am, and not really managing to get back to sleep properly, so that when the alarm went off at 7am, I already felt like I’d been run over by a lorry. Still, I got up for work, where I promptly started feeling sick. I really hope this isn’t the return of morning sickness for the third trimester.
I then also had crap jobs to do at work (basically sorting articles, photocopying them and filing them in various folders), so when the main disappointment of the day happened, I had really had it up to here. It wasn’t anything big, but I’d found an advert for a pram I really wanted on an internet forum. I’d told the seller straight away (within about 20 minutes of her post) that I was really interested, and asked her if I could round and see it on Monday. She hadn’t replied, so I wrote to her again today, and asked whether she had received my mail. She replied that she’d sold the pram yesterday. Fair enough, she’d not promised me anything, but I had got my hopes up over the weekend, and so I was really disappointed.
Meh. Today was pants. I have a midwife appointment tomorrow, let’s hope tomorrow is better…
I am sure today will be better! Good luck with the midwife, hope all is well.

What pram are you thinking of buying? If I was to do it again, I wouldn’t think twice about spending the money on a really expensive pram like a Bugaboo, because you will get your money’s worth out of it using it all the time. But don’t that influence your choice, I’m just sounding off as I consider buying yet another one for our trip in April to Australia.
I’m sure tomorrow will be better too, but get used to those early morning bathroom breaks. Apparently, they are all to get your body in training for the broken nights’ sleep you’ll be having when the baby is there!

| Posted 1 year, 9 months agoYou are not supposed to have to buy the stuff–your friends and family are supposed to spoil you and the baby with all sorts of pretties and usefuls. Do they have Target in Germany, or Babies R Us? Both have good registries. Then you can sit back and let the gifting begin.
