I’ve been thinking how to write this the whole morning. This post is(was) outcome based, and now that I know the outcome, I’m not entirely sure…
Some history:
I gave up my 9-5 in February this year, to focus on my own business and children. I have been kept on retainer with the 9-5 though.
A2 is with me during the day now. In fact, we’re together pretty much 24/7.
A1 is going to school only half day.
I’m lucky to be kept busy with various orders for Felt So Good.
We’ve sold our house.
We’re buying a property.
We’re going to build a new house on our new property we haven’t quite bought yet.
We have to find a temporary rental residence in 3 months from now, for a few months while we finish building the house that hasn’t been started yet.
Then we have to move, again.
So the timing hasn’t been and won’t be ideal for a while.
Then:
I haven’t had a period since A2 was born.
I’ve been back on the injection since 6 weeks after his birth.
I’ve been on various medications for various reasons (superdoses of antibiotics & Champix, amongst others) these last couple of weeks.
But then:
I craved fishcakes. This is alarming, because previous occasions were marked by Calamari steak (A1) and Seafood Potjie, both which made me very sick! However, the fishcakes did not.
I was sick (bronchitis) and according to my Mom, I was sick both previous times too.
I experienced what felt like ‘First movements’ – yesterday a bit and today A LOT!! Constantly!
It might just be my imagination, but I think my flabby pouch is a bit firmer? Still there, but less flabby…
There *must* be something in the water at the moment (or a few weeks ago), because announcements are streaming in!
I have been experiencing mood-swings, that feels hormonal based. (Cars, the animation movie, made me cry…)
So:
While we aren’t exactly planning another A, if it happened it won’t be the end of the world.
There’s still time to adjust the building plans for an extra room.
I did some tests last week and another one today.
I think I’m a bit sad though…
