ICLW finally!

This is my first ICLW in a loooooooong time. I forced myself to do it as I kept putting it off since finding it hard to come back to my blog after my miscarriage last year. But now I am in a very different place as you may see from all the baby stuff on my blog now. It's all a bit surreal. But it's more amazing and wonderful than I could have imagined.


So to introduce myself and The Pitter-Patter to new visitors here is my ABC of information:

A: Acupuncture - weekly sessions which keep me feeling good and regular (if you catch my progesterone-slowing drift)
B: Bump!
C: Cats, we have three. They want to sleep on me all the time - this is a new development, could it be pregnancy related?
D: Dancing queen - our bubba's new nickname since she started movin and groovin
E: Eternity - how long it seems we have waited for our little miracle bubba
F: Fit - working hard to be as fit as can be
G: Girl - As in our baby is a
H: Home birth - That's the plan
I: Ice-cream? No. I stopped eating it, trying to be very healthy now until baby comes.
J: Jane, the name of my midwife
K: Kicks!
L: Love conquers all
M: Mr. T - also known as bear and sometimes as knob, when he's being knob-like. But mostly he is just my incredible hubby. My absolute all.
N: Nearly 8 years since we met.
O: Oh to stuff myself with chocolate and pizza and all other naughty things I would like to eat!
P: Pebbles - our baby's blog name
Q: Quack quack - my nickname at school
R: Raspberry leaf tea - every morning
S: Sat Nam - My birthing mantra. It means I am true.
T: Third Trimester
U: Uterus. Big up. You kept up your end of the bargain. So far. Hoping you get to do your thang in 10 weeks time.
V: Viable. Baby now is. Phew.
W: Water birth - the pool is here, in its box, waiting for Mr. T to pump it up so we can check it, clean it and sterilize it
X: Xtraordinary ladies who I meet all the time thanks to blogging
Y: Yoga - I am a yoga machine at the moment, unstoppable!
Z: Ze list is done!

  1. Welcome back to ICLW!!! And I loved to read your list! I'm so looking forward to reading about your birth experience, and even more than that I hope you'll keep blogging when Pebbles arrives. I have so many cyber friends who have disappeared from blogland once the moved to parenthood and it feels I've been abandoned! Anyway, enough of my whining...
    Much love and update again soon!

  8. Hi. Stopping by from ICLW. I noticed your comment about your cats. My cat started sleeping with me, as in right next to my head last year when I was pregnant with our son. She hasn't left my side since. She also follows me around the house everywhere. I think it's a great honor :-).
