Well as you can tell maybe from the last post about my pregnancy…The house is still not ready.. We are getting there though… The livingroom is completely painted.. It needs one wall with wallpaper, the floor ofcourse, curtains and ofcourse the furniture and lamps.. but we are waiting with that till the floor is down.. We goign to order them at Ikea so theres not any waiting time for delivery either because ikea is just around the corner and they deliver usualy the next or even the same day :).

My daughters room is painted and wallpapered.. missing the curtains.. her bed Shes sleeping temporarely on my old bed because ordering her new bed would take 4 to 5 weeks to be delivered.. the flooring because we have to start in the living room with putting the floor down and then the hallway and then her room and the other bedrooms…

Anyways Our bedroom is completely painted too and just needs one wall wallpapered and the floor, lamp furniture and curtains… The bed including the matrasses are allready waiting for us in the storage to be brought upstairs and put to use :)…

The hallway is  painted and wallpapered  just needs  a nice lamp and the floor…Ofcourse we want to add a coatrack and a mirror n other small furnitures but those are less important and minor details…

Then last but not least.. The babyroom… Everything still needs to be done there… we just have the her bed and matrass ready waiting for her just in case.. we are using at the moment a drawer from my first daughter for her clothes and possible as a commode in case she comes early but we have everything we need for her to come into this world..  🙂

I have taken pictures from every room before we started working on them and I will post pictures when we are done working on them so you can see room by room all the changes 🙂 but that will be in time.. PATIENCE is a virtue hahahahaha…

Take care all!!

We are getting there… sooner or later this little giorl is going to want to come out and we will finally be able to hold her in our arms…

I hope ofcourse in the first place she will be all healthy like she seems to be right now… But secondly i also hope she will stay inside for just about 10 more days…

The house isnt ready… even though I am.. the house is not and that kinda makes me not comfortable at all..  We have her bed, her bath, her clothes her everything except her room.. Well we do have her room.. its just not finished.. at the moment me and Antonio are camping there on a supersize airbed.. I have had worse nights but its not really 100% comfortable, especially not to get in and out, which happens a couple times with me having to go to the restroom now more often since this little girl is adding more and more pressure on my bladder…

Talking about my bladder… I dont seem to have an bladderinfection anymore so thats a good thing…

After registering  with the new midwife she wanted to have me go to the hospital for an extra echo/ultrasound and extra blood tests too. She thought our girl might be a bit small but.. I really dont think shes that small.. shes  a little below average but not below the minimum and me and Antonio are neither very big so that really don’t surprise me.. At the hospital they thought everything was fine too and there was nothing unusual on the echo/ultrasound either but it was nice to see my little girl move again on the  screen…

I feel her all the time, shes very active and barely ever I have to wonder if shes ok in there… My tummy stays nice n soft so up to this point I have no reasons to believe shes having any troubles or that my body has any troubles… I’m thinking with the moving to this new place behind us and My daughter happy on her new school theres a lot of stress off my shoulders… Also I do feel a lot better all be it not 100%.. food is still a problem but I am still gaining weight and actualy dont look skinny anymore either at all..

My feet – ankles get thick now all the time and I try to lay them high when we go to bed.. My/our little suitcase to go to the hospital when  our little girl decides its time, is ready almost I just need to add the clothes I am going to wear to leave the hospital But I am guessing I will be wearing something when I go there so I should have something right? Well.. still they might get dirty so I rather pack an extra set of clean clothes just to be sure.. Looking at the weather I am thinking just a long dress with short sleeves and a shirt with long sleeves to wear under it would do. Then for good and bad weather I am prepared.. besides we live right near the hospital and going home in a taxi so I am not too worried…

Ok since my head is doing overtime, I am losing track of what I allready posted and what not so I just gonna briefly tell the progress and more detailed where we are at now.

The moving is planned for may 28, I contacted a moving company and they going to help us with the car and 2 extra workers. My parents will come here the day before (that will be the 27th) and help us out too.

I have taken care of a new midwife, the aftercare company, the water, light and electricity in the new house. I have been trying to order wallpaper for like three weeks now and they are simply not responding anymore so I will send them another email to cancel all orders and go somewhere else.. I dont have time to waste with  people who are that slow and bad at communication and doing there bussines. It might save me 20 euros but it costs me a lot of energy and stress now to find another company that can send me the wallpaper on a  short notice. its only the one for the living room and the babyroom and not really urgen, but still I just wanted it taken care of.

Antonio has been painting the living room and doing a lot of the more heavy work, lifting and etc. I have been packing and organizing etc.. Most of Merel’s room has been packed now, most of the clothes have been packed as well from me AND her, we have brought some things allready to the new house like some electricity things like the music system, microwave (so Antonio can eat  when he sleeps there) and some other electrical devices. I figured everything we take there now we don’t have to take there anymroe later and it will save us time and money and boxes that we need to fill and the walking up the stairs with stuff isbeing a little bit more spread now. Most of the furniture is going to be tossed away so I dont have to worry about those thank goodness..  I’m more worried about the new furniture actualy because I still havent received the money from the renting office to buy my new things. Since I am going to order it at Ikea it shouldnt be too much of a problem and deliverytime but still.. I am getting nervous and I just like things taken care off 😛

Right now my back/hip/pelvic is hurting a lot again so I forced myself to take a break packing.. I don’t like that I can’t just continue like I would have if I had not been pregnant.. But I am going to need myself a lot more in the next week so I better spare myself a little bit. I dont have the energy to upload the new pics I promised so that still has to wait.. Don’t worry once we are settled and I am gonna be just waiting for the baby to be born, I will have plenty of time that I wont be doing anything and need something to fill up time.. So that be a good moment to post all the  forgotten and missed updates with pics etc…

Well I think you are quite up to date again now so I leave it at this for now. Take care!

Ok so yeah I’m 28 weeks pregnant now and the clock keeps ticking. My tummy has grown a lot bigger and I have been gaining a couple more kilos.. which is a good thing.. losing weight in my condition is not a good thing now. My weight now is about 59 kilos so no I am still not a heavy person 😛

I have new pictures but I am lazy and havent edited them yet. I plan on doing that in my next post. Sorry ppls  but that only means more pics next update :).

I am doing well.. I dont throw up anymore much at the moment. Actualy it be very rare if I would now. I have other problems to deal with now.. I am currently using a wheelchair  for when we go somewhere simply because I cant walk much anymore due to the pain in my back. I ignored the signs my body was sending and I simply overdid it. My own fault.  So I made some calls and found out i could borrow a wheelchair for a couple months which is really usefull now else I wouldnt be able to go anywhere much at all..  It is weird though… AND it was not an easy decision but now, I am glad I did made that decision. I sit comfortable and I finally can go outside again. Maybe even get a little tan XD.

Still the stomach acid burn in my throat but I can control that a little bit depending on the food i been eating..  I have a bladder infection currently and using medication against it. I hope it will work.. I surely don’t want to end up in the hospital because we have a lot comming at us.

We finally got a new appartement and may 5 we will be signing the contract for it. Ofcourse when I write about that there will be pictures. We will have a lot of work to do there and when I say we.. I mean ofc Antonio because in this condition I can not do much myself.. I just hope to be able to do some cleaning at least and I probaly can pack stuff in at home to go to the new appartement.   BUT I will write more about that in a special update about our new appartement soon..

I know theres many promises and things to do for me left so maybe I should make a to do list for me here..  You know what!? I’ll just do that next time LOL.

The baby, shes doing great, growing well.. moving a lot and having the coolest parties inside my belly.. at least thats how it feels.. she moves constantly and I have no worries about her :).

So far this update.. maybe pictures next time!

Yeah yeah, I know I’m kinda late with more news and information but that’s mainly because I don’t have so much information at the moment. Everything is going fine appart from the “normal” pregnancy side effects :P.

Got burning accid ofcourse in my throat worse then ever, however I can eat pretty decent again I still can’t eat much because the baby is growing so  big now that its pushing my stomach up and when im eating too much it simply will come out again the same way it came in o.o; yeah I know too much details.. I am having cramps in my legs aswell wich is very annoying…

Our little princess is growing all right and I feel her move around all day and night still, so thats good as well I’m guessing.

My back is not very stabil and I’m still keeping my bed rest all day as much as possible because a little too much activity and I have a sore tummy and back and can barely walk. Antonio is taking good care of us and seriously does about everything around the house. I know I would have done things different and maybe more and have more eye for detail and such but I shouldnt complain when I am being taken so good care off.. he also takes care of my daughter ofcourse and I am very greatfull for all he does for us. We are still waiting to move and maybe are now in the run for an appartement actualy but i keep that down till I am sure :P  We just have to wait n see :).

I will update my tummy pictures again soon with some new ones so you all can see how I grow 😛 Take care all!
