IN NEED OF SOME HELP.

Hi guys

This is a post for help! I need help to choose baby names.

I have created a list with babynames.com which is a fantastic place that lets you create a list then post it to your friends for votes. I'm unsure if this list is done. I'm 16weeks and chances are it may grow or change over the coming months. Then there's the fact that I hope to find out the sex of the baby at my 20week scan which happens to be in around 3 weeks on the 13Th July. So once this happens the list will have to change.

I would love to know what you all think of my name choices so far?

All you have to do is click on the link in the sidebar. Once your there look through the names and click the thumbs up or down buttons.

THANKS ALL.

DESIGNER BABY BUMPS

As many of you already know I'm a pretty big art fan. I love to draw and paint and have displayed some of my work on this blog. Well just the other day I was checking out some cool and funky art on google. It was then that I came across something a little different BODY PAINTING FOR PREGNANT WOMAN.

So with my love of art and yes me being pregnant I decided to take a look. Wow not at all what I had expected but in a great way. This stuff was fantastic, creative, fun and funky, I was Interested and wanted to find out more.

The designs were by an artist named Julia Laderman. Julia is easily one of the best body painters I have ever seen. Julia is based in Brighton. She says the bigger the bump the better. Eight months on wards seems a pretty good time to get a pregnant belly jazzed up. Prices start at around £650 and you would need to be prepared to spend the whole day having it done. Once painted next comes the photo shoot. A highly experienced photographer will take the shoots any way you fell most comfortable. 

All body paint is water based making it easy to wash off. And guess what lady  lunch, drinks and snacks are provided throughout the day ( GREAT NEWS FOR ALL MUMMIES TO BE ) 

Well it maybe a fair bit of money but how often are you pregnant? With a minimum of two 10x8 and four 7x5 images it's a great keepsake to show the baby when there older. I'm only 14 weeks but I'm thinking about booking in for a little bump painting, That gives me around four months to save me Penny's lol.  

If your expecting and want to see and find out more then check out embody or email info@embody.org.uk You can also find out more by calling +44(8)7803 12192 

Would love to hear your comments on what you think.

ME AND PREGNANCY

So yes I'm expecting a baby, and as I have said before I'm over the moon.

I'm now 14 weeks gone, and my energy levels are rising (God I hated felling so tired ) So I'm hoping that I will now be able to give my blog some much needed attention. So yes from now on you can expect a little bit of pregnancy chat ( I hope that's cool with you guys ) 

So how am I dealing with the whole pregnancy thing ? Great, so far so good. I was lucky that I have barley had any sickness. However tiredness has been an issue as well as the odd mood swing. I also managed to give up the big bad cigarette :) Yes I did this with my other children but I have always returned to the horrid habit. I'm hoping this time will be different and once the baby is born smoking will not be a habit I choose to indulge in.

My biggest issue seems to be my changing body shape. I just can't seem to enjoy these changes. I swear I have to stop looking at those pregnancy magazines. All the woman seem to remain slim with a nice tidy bump. I was a slim size 8 less then 12 weeks ago and since I have become pregnant I seem to have ballooned all over. I think maybe a stone could of been gained so far, Am I eating more ? Maybe! But not a great deal. Maybe it's due to it being my 3rd pregnancy ( So the midwife informs me ) My bump is kinda cute just a little BIG for 14 weeks.  I also want to share my wonderful scan picture with you all. I had forgotten how amazing it is to see your little bubba growing inside you. I really did enjoy the scan and can't wait to my next scan ( where yes I find out the baby's sex )
