baby brain and exhuastion

Well if I was a slow blogger before pregnancy then I'm almost non existance now!
exhuastion and baby brain pretty much sums it up, lol!

I had really bad nausea and aweful nursing aversion till I was over 10 weeks, it slowly went away over a week or so.  I spent a week with aweful headaches to go with the dizzyness i was feeling frequently till 13 weeks.
I'm now 14 weeks and have a stinking cold, but as far as i can tell i'm in the 'blooming' second trimester and if it wasnt for a toddler and house guest causing lack of sleep that resulted in me catching a cold, I'd be feeling pretty awesome :P

At 10 weeks iIfelt a lil bit of 'rolling' odd sensation behind my belly button, it happened repeatly for 10mins at 2am, im sure it was Egg! then annoyingly no definate movement again till 13 weeks, cheeky baby likes to tease!
My 12 week scan was amazingly clear, though I couldnt tell the sex. This babe is so unlike gosling already, she moved so much I had flutters everynight from 12 weeks and she danced and wiggled through out the scan, this babe was so still that for a heartstopping second i thought my Egg wasnt living! worst 5seconds of my life, but then I spotted the heart beating and Egg streached an arm, almost like a cheeky wave! we mustve got to watch for almost 10mins and Egg stretched a leg, an arm. barely moved really, maybe its a lazy boy? lol!

My bump is rounded, its still coming straight out from behing my belly button, I'm carrying all in front so unlike Gosling! Ive found it a bit unweildly at times, I spent 3days in what iIthink was a 'bump-spurt', lol, where I felt like i had no stomach muscles and it was all hanging out, it was heavy! I kept holding my belly in and using scarfs to tye round belly an back for support, then, at exactly 13weeks, Egg spent and hour wiggling and turning an doing somersaults it felt, and the next day my bump was obvious and felt comfortable again! weird.

12weeks

at the moment my bump pictures are random, blurry, but im having professional ones taken two, i got the first shoot at 12weeks :)

I dont have any milk, that dissapeared at 10 weeks though Gosling has still been nursing, less and less and now she will only have naptime, recently she can vary, some days she'll have a breif nurse on each side, other times she'll nurse for 10mins on one side, and others she just cuddles up to my breast, tells me she loves me and slowly drifts off. Its all been very sweet, i do miss nursing especially in the morning as I cant jump up with the energy of a two an half year old! I'm also reliefed that its stopped just because of the nursing aversion, on the occasion that she does want to nurse, both sides for 10mins each, I am gritting my teeth as she doesnot seem to know how to nurse properly, or perhaps now my milk has dried up it just makes my skin crawl. I hate feeling like that as it stamps on the great memories we have, luckily she is so sweet, she stops to hug me and tell me loves me, makes it so worth it <3
At this point I have no idea if she'll nurse when the baby is born, she loves to get her head in my top/jumper, and have me 'push' her out, then she is a baby! i have to cuddle an rock her and she PRETENDS to nurse. so who knows!
