+1 = 4

I'm 15 weeks pregnant today! We couldn't be happier. And I feel huge! I thought it was time to tell you (which I wasn't sure about, I'm not sure if anyone will be interested and I'm wary of having pregnant (er fat) photos of me on the web!! But on the other hand, if I didn't tell you and all of a sudden I say I've had a baby, would that be more weird?!). So here I am at 15 weeks...

Being pregnant is so freaking exhausting (oh my god, no one tells you about the tiredness, the utter exhaustion on a daily basis) and eye opening in that why-is-my-lower-back-sore-all-of-a-sudden kind of way (especially when you've never had back problems before!). I'm fascinated by watching my body change shape. I think it's totally amazing and scary at the same time!

On another note, my lovely Mum bought me this dress from Sussan the other day. Very bump friendly, very 40c summer heatwave friendly! I think I'll be living in maxi dresses this summer...and for once instead of maxi's making me look pregnant, I'll actually be pregnant!

Sorry about the fuzzy photo - but it sure shows my bump :)

    Congratulations Maria, what a lovely surprise - yes it would be a bit weird if you suddenly had a baby without telling us! You certainly have your plate full for the next six months, but what a great motivation for your renovation (that sounds cheesy and rhyme-y now I read it back). ps. I love Sussan dresses too :)
