FOUND: One large 'birthing ball' - as recommended by my yoga and NCT instructors to ease the pain of birth, and encourage optimal foetal positioning. As yet mostly used as a rather unsightly metallic ornament in the corner of my living room, for fear of it bursting as soon as I lower my gargantuan form onto it.
LOST: One waist. I vaguely remember being able to rest my hands on it and use it to hold up clothes. Trousers that do up with buttons - they used to be a thing, too.
FOUND: A hormonal spot rash across my neck and chest. My body has a different take on the 'pretty hormones' that are supposed to kick in in later pregnancy.
LOST: Roughly one pint of fluids an hour through sweat. Leaving about 10ml of water for the 4-6 x hourly wees.
FOUND: The inside of my own belly button. Something I have to say I wasn't overly keen to ever meet.
LOST: Boris the cat, who is refusing to come in from next door's garden. I'm taking a sausage out to coax him in. Cheerio.
He,he! I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant and think my jawline has gone to the same place yours has only to be replaced with a birthing ball that my daughter likes to throw at the dog! Good times! #brilliantblogposts
