Here are some of the common pregnancy side effects that I managed not to have:
-very painful feet and ankles
-massive weight gain
-varicose veins
-huge numbers of moles (the skin kind, not the rodent)
-gestational diabetes
-dental problems or other bone issues due to calcium going out of mum into the baby
-high blood pressure
-complications at the birth
-ugly baby
-colicky baby
So THAT’s nice.
In a shocking break from recent tradition, I will NOT be talking about Louisette tomorrow, or posting another photo. I’ll actually be writing a good old-fashioned “Daily Awesomeness” entry. Then on Wednesday I’ll post all about breastfeeding (including the results of getting Louisette’s tongue tie fixed, which is happening tomorrow and will probably have instant results) and my mental state.
To tide you over, here is a near-fatal dose of cuteness that will have to last you until Wednesday (unless I snap and post something tomorrow after all). Regular readers will recognise Louisette’s cousin.Ā Louisette is honestly getting prettier every single day.
