drapey black cardi- weekend @ kmart

i LOVE the mart!

feet- barefoot and preggers :-)

I went shopping with ma and pa and geoffy thursday night- coffee and delerious kmart wandering sore gums lol- until geoff got me some toothache drops to numb them and I picked up the antibiotics the dentist prescribed.. better ahhhhh... they still ache a bit.. its that little baby boy using up all my goodness and making my gums ache i reckon!

I bought the above top at kmart- i loved it. I am pissed off to say that in the wash this morning i noticed it had shrunk a touch- BOO! I also bought the cardi I am wearing, same as the grey maternity one but this one is non maternity. Oh and checkit- hair tied up again lol. except i am not sure what is with the funny look on my face hmm.

ohh by the way.. have u met my little man? This is his a loooong time ago, 17 weeks ago actually.. I will post some more recent pics soon xx

the tooth, the midwife and the bad week

same top as other day- best and less

same denim leggings- best and less

black cardi- kmart.. like years ago..

gold flats- rubi

me and my baby belly, on the maternity level balcony at monash

oohhh the above, above photo was taken the morning of my midwife appt. I assumed it was going to be a quick in and out- well yeah, never assume.

I saw some dipshit doctor who said my bp was really high and there was traces of protein in my urine so I FREAKED. Oh and my GD test was JUST over. Great. Oh and they might want to keep me in overnight. Work? Oh you have to work? Too bad. Farrrk. This came just after the day that my broken tooth reached breaking point so I was kinda not suprised if my BP was high. I went to the dentist that afternoon and had a temporary filling done, thank god. So anyway.. I had blood tests and urine tests and BP profiling. All came back fine, thank gawwddd. All my organs are functioning fine so no pre eclampsia. My Bp totally went done to a good level again. and the levels of protein in my urine are within the normal range. Thank god. And the midwives are seeing me once a week from now on. So we will see what happens hey??!! Maybe we will be delivering our baby boy a little earlier than we thought? But not yet- am only 27 weeks!!

Speaking of...

My brain is... headachey and baby brain-like

My body is... amazingly carrying my beautiful baby boy lol. Sick of hanging shit on my bod LOL

Dressing myself is.. Getting better- bought a few new tops last weekend so feeling it a bit more

My emotional state is.. emotional. Very teary,

Things I have noticed? My hair is gross and is being worn in a pony or clip. My pelvis hurts. My lower back hurts. Being pregnant is not as glam as is made out to be but I wish a little that I was dealing with it better lol.. there is still time i guess lol.

Current Cravings... Still mcdonalds coke. chocolate.

this looked way better IRL

coral short sleeve drapey cardi- cotton on

floral singlet- best and less

jeggins- best and less (lily + lou)

gold flats- rubi

was trying to show the back of the jeggings.. all i am showing is how huge I am and my big baby bump lol

OK so it was a hot morning hence why my pictures look like shit.
this was taken as we were out the door to drop off Geoffs jeans to be shortened, pop into southland to return one of the pairs of "treggings" I bought at citychic last week (MAN i hate that shop) and then to to our 4d Ultrasound to see the baby! Then we went to chadstone and saw Avatar in 3d and have dindins. Great Day!!!!

Bad points of the day? We couldn't get a dvd of baby- he was hiding his face with his hands and feet LOL- she has rebooked us for 4 weeks time. We got some pics though of his cherubic little face! Oh and another bad point- it was HAWT and windy. and I keep losing hair extensions!! I think their shelf life is over. :(

Good points of the day? I returned my treggings. I hate city chic. For the price they charge their clothes should be fantastic. They are not. These pants are soo low cut it was crazy. I loved Avatar. I had a schnitzel for dinner. With chips and gravy, nom nom. We found out baby bob is INDEED a BOY!! YAY!! am REALLLLY HAPPY, serious!! Then I went to target and bought him two blue outfits.

I bought this top I am wearing last night with mum and dad. I also bought the jeggings but sshh lets NOT tell geoff LOL. he thinks (and I concur!) that I have a ridiculous amount of leggings!! I also bought another top.. some maternity pants and top from savers. Mum and dad bought Bob some baby blankets (dad picked a blue one, I guess he knew just like I did hey??) and some knitted cardigans. Thse jeggings I am wearing in these pictures are the best ones I think- they are Lily + Lou from best and less and they aren't skin tight. Plus they have bum pockets.. I like that. So I bought another pair today. YES I KNOW.. I am banned from the shops for a while...

the little dress that could... be a top

black babydoll top/dress- crossroads

blackish jeggings- weekend brand, kmart

gladiators- target

Greetings All
So thursday night i went shopping as mentioned on previous post. I bought these pants. making my jeggings tally quite high. These are from the kmart weekend brand and are not much different from the size 26 (4 sizes up) jeggings i own except these are longer in the leg and the size 26 are a little looser in the leg. Stupid how 4 sizes up can give much little difference hey? pisses me off.

So I found this top thingy in one of my many wardrobes the other night and tried it on this morning and was very happy with it- love the neckline and the longer length and the babydoll/empire line style. Its from crossroads about 2 years ago and is actually a dress- a very short one lol. Very happy I found it. I LOVE rediscovering stuff!!

The quickest post ever

drapey cardi- bub2b, kmart

leopard singlet- kmart

leggings and shoes- far OUT.. kmart.

Hi Hi

Its 10 to 5 so have to be quick as then am leaving work and going to the plaza to buy a dressing gown from target as they are 20% off (for when I have the baby, a bit early but ya know) and do my grocery shopping. Then to have an early night as I have to be at work early because I need to leave early to have my glucose screening done. I am not as scared of that as I should be. There are a few preggos I know who have this and they have eaten really well thru out their preg so maybe I should worry because I haven't eaten terribly well but mah. If I have it, I have it. No point stressing over it now, I just want to know if I have it or not so they can treat it.

I have a photo of this outfit without the drapey cardi as well and it looked like shit. I lvoe this singlet but never by itself. The shape is really bogan mans singlet shape and it makes my arms look huge and like a trucker lol. I seem to really like kmart at the mo lol. Its true- Big W has fallen off as my favourite- their sizes are BULLSHIT and their stock is crap, all over the place and infrequent.

I have felt emotional today. I read an email (a funny jokey inspirational crapola one) about a bear stuck on a bridge and it made me REALLY upset??!! WTF! And I heard a Pink Floyd song before and it nearly made me cry. Hmm.

Well that took 2 minutes! Catch ya later!!

Vested Interest?

drapey vest- umm.. kmart

ignore the car door framing the pic. Geoff was already in the car waiting for me when I thrust the camera at him LOL

I am kinda cranky at the moment.


There is a spider. On the wall. In the babys room! wtf! The house has been sprayed.. umm it should be dead!! Its a fat black scary one so I have to wait for geoff to get home from work. Wahhh.. I HATE spiders they ruin my day and make me feel gross.





God I did little work today. I actually feel guilty!


Do you like my top? I haven't worn it in like- 10-11 months. Its not a huge top and its kinda shortish but I figured the vest would add length and it is baby doll style so I could stick the bump out lol.





GOD that spider has made me angry. I need to get flyscreens on the windows. Every time I think I am ready for this baby, THIS kinda shit happens GRR

I am officially 26 weeks and 1 day.. (13 weeks and 6 days to go!!) and i usually don't do my question thang until later on in the week but mah.





I actually kinda tried this morning. This red/tunic thingy is from rockmans a hundred years ago- cost me $10 at an outlet. I usually shy away from red especially being blonde again as I reckon it makes me look brassy but I am SO over wearing the same shit. Yesterday I went to fountain gate with dad (mum working, geoff not home lol) and bought two pairs of pants from city chic that I could NOT afford. Both called jeggings. One is the true stiff denim type. Skin tight. I think I forgot I was pregnant lol. I hope they fit me for a bit.. I may wear them later + stretch them lol. The other pair ios slightly roomier jeggings.. but they are black pants material.. so I guess they are really treggings even though the tag says jeggings? Confused re my eggings. I hope I get some wear out of them before baby!!






My brain is... a little more alert!!


My body is... Hot, white and large... same as last week. Hot even when its not really hot. Craving winter.


Dressing myself is.. Look, the intent is there. Thats all I will say. I don't have the preggo tummy I am just big all over. Its depressing a bit.


My emotional state is.. Quite OK!


Things I have noticed? My BP being looked after makes me feel much better! My skin and hair looks shit at the moment and makeup looks crap on me.


Current Cravings... Still mcdonalds coke. Still hot cross buns but weaning a little. Still boiled pots lol. Things I hate? EGGS!!!!!!!

Sweaty Betty

Man.. it is HOT.
Its actually cooler than last summer. But now I understand- being almost 6 and a half months pregnant in summer kinda sucks. Even though I like typing that. hehe. I promise I will fashion post soon but I feel so hot and unglamorous currently :-(


Its almost thursday and I will be 26 weeks on sunday but last sunday i turned 25 weeks. well bob did. In utero speaking anyway...

My brain is... tired. oh soo tired.
My body is... Hot, white and large.
Dressing myself is.. a pain in the arse and I am so not trying. Hense lack of posted pics.
My emotional state is.. Good actually. Not overly teary. I have noticed but, I don't like people talking about pets dying/being mistreated lol. I get a little over emotional re this.
Things I have noticed? my toothache sucks. and most dentists won't touch you at my stage. Blahh. After my High Blood Pressure scare (more below) I have started to realise that I need to relax and go with the flow. I am loving all my baby movement even though it makes me kinda squemish and hate it when he/she doesn't kick.
New Question! Current Cravings... Mcdonalds (or any kinda of) faux coke. Choc hot cross buns in the oven with margarine mmm... boiled potatos.

I am loving being pregnant and perhaps more appreciative of it now? Last week I had SHITFUL tooth/head aches, and decreased baby movement so I called Monash and they said to pop in. So late sunday afternoon Geoff and I popped in and they listened to Bobs heartbeat- located STRAIGHT away and very loud and strong YAY!! Then she said she would do some ops. Including BP. It was high, H.I.G.H. Like 165/100. The highest mine has been recorded is 148/90-something. So they kept me there for a while. Didn't really come down. They tested my urine, no protein so no Pre Eclampsia, thank god. They then gave me some BP meds which lowered my BP right down. Like within 30-60 mins. So that made them happy and they sent me home but I will have to take the meds for the rest of the pregnancy. I knew I would end up with high BP but it was still scary. My mumma had it with me and one of my sister had it. The other had gestational diabetes which I probably have as well lol. Before they sent me home the doctor examined my baby bump and she said the baby feels fine- the correct size and everything meaning the high BP hasn't done any damage- YAY go BOB!! I went back to Monash yesterday for some more BP monitoring and OMG, it was 124/70-something. AWESOME!!

birthing shmirthing

black singlet- hand me down from mum

crochet vest- autograph

leggings- kmart

sandals- kmart

So tonight we went to birthing class.
They were bo-o-o-oring. Geoff says they are neccessary but you know what? There is nothing neccessary about sitting in a room doing group activity with a bunch of other pregos, listening to (some) of there stupid questions about do hospitals mix up babies?? wtf?? watching a VHS from 92 of some slapper in the nude giving birth- ew ew EW AND not getting home with dinner till 10pm.
And for this I paid $50. Hmmph.

So.. I was 24 weeks on sunday!!

My brain is... finding it hard to fous
My body is... big and round. My face looks round too. Clothing is difficult and I feel uncomfortable. Esp. in this heat!
Dressing myself is.. hard coz its HOT.
My emotional state is.. still snappy but not emotional.
Things I have noticed? heartburn is kinda gone.. for now. I want to eat 24/7 but find it hard to know what I want ahead of time which makes lunches and dinners hard. I am waddling a bit lol. I have started being swollen.. I think its this hot weather. Roll on autumn! We had the kids last weekend and that was hard. I am tired all the time and also have had some headaches/toothaches.. yuk. Still love being preggers but :-)
