Ice lolli (Popsicle)

Funny, but this made me feel like a bad mother!
I was eating an ice lolli, Bailey wanted a suck, then once tried she was like a frantic eating monster she couldn't get enough I had to finish it as fast as I could and get an ice cream freeze headache just so she wouldn't keep grabbing and crying for it!

Then the mouth turned blue...not from the cold but from the lolli, Oh no! Bad mother and all she'd been eating was breast milk or organic steamed and puree by my fair hands or plum babies!

But the coloured mouth went quickly and she seemed no worse for wear, is it better to be a relaxed parent than a paranoid one? I'm trying!!!!

Good things about being pregnant....

Well aside from the obvious! getting a baby yeah!!!!
here are some fun reasons and slightly-weird-good reasons to get pregnant!

• Eating ice- cream guilt free guzzling of ice cream
• Sex dreams, wild ones! extremely slightly embarrassingly wild ones
• napping with no guilt that you have something better to do
• no need to vacuum anymore - its too heavy to lug downstairs you have to get someone else to do it
• you don't need to undo buttons/ zips when you pee - just pull your jeans down - everything is elasticated once your pregnant!
• elastic waisted jeans - now I had an aversion to them but now I've embrace them I love em - no butt cleavage, or digging in your belly when you sit down - comfy elastic!
• Belly bands - I'm gonna wear these for the rest of my life - you know when your t-shirts just a little too short and your jeans are showing your butt - well the belly band just covers that all up while holding in your muffin top belly too! bonus, ever have that problem - get a belly band!
• people let you have their chair, whether out or on public transport.
• Thick hair - who knew it was so good! 
• the answer to 'do i look fat it this' is for the first time in your life quite happily yes, and its great!
• foot massages, back massages are standard daily routine once pregnant.
• Hair feels not as greasy!
• You don't get as sweaty, but you do get sweaty creases!
• skin glows - well people tell me it does!
• people tell you, you look good, even stranger at the pool or grocery store have said ' you look really well' or you look really cute (me cute in my bathing suit - I though I looked like a whale but happily I look cute - a stranger told me so it must be true!).
• lots of hand holding and looking after by your guy - I can't cross a road or go up or down stairs without a hand to hold - v protective 
• lots more cuddles and kisses and love from your man, he's just as excited as you are! 
• Guilt free shopping sprees - for baby its so much fun!
• A feeling like your doing a great thing for your family! every ones proud of you.

Even though you get such a wonderful thing out of being pregnant, you'll always hear the negative about being pregnant, morning sickness, stretch marks, piles, etc even I on this blog have had a few moans, but for the most part I LOVE being pregnant, don't get me wrong I've been lucky so far and had none of the bad symptoms bar heartburn!
