Sleep?
Sleep has been crap again this week. Really really crap. Waking up frequently to pee, not being able to settle at night (one night forgot to take pain killers before bed! Ouch did I know about it!) Waking up early, not being able to get back to sleep. Nap in the day... the cycle continues.

| New Wheels! |
There were some very good moments this week! One of them was getting a new car with my husband at the weekend! It is his/our dream car, so we decided to make one more dream come true before the baby arrives! Jeep Wrangler... fun fun fun!! No not entirely practical but fun all the same....

| Side Saddle Style! |

| Wheels for the day |
Also managed to meet up with Sue for the last time before baby! And I met Sarah another twitter friend. It was another trip to Harry Potter... Don't ask. 4th Time is a charm! But it was great company. Pelvic pain was a pain and ended up with Sue and Sarah having to push me around in a wheelchair all day to make sure I made it around the tour. It was a very eye opening experience, but also I felt like a fraud. Not nice! But thank you for pushing me girls! :-)

| Disappearing bump! |
 |
| There's the bump! |
I also managed to sneak a half an hour meeting in with my bestie from childhood, as she was back in the area for a family party! We managed a quick half an hour with a cup of tea before we had to part ways. I was so happy to see her and as we don't get to see each other often if we hadn't seen each other today she wouldn't have met the bump! So that was pretty special. The bump will definitely be gone the next time we meet!
Symptoms?
Symptoms a plenty this week...
The heartburn returned & gaviscon has been cracked open. Why oh why did I not take this weeks ago!? It really works!
The pelvic pain has begun to get a bit worse again... mainly because I am fed up and want to do more than I can do!!! I really want to be able to go out and do stuff, but I am basically in pain the minute I get out.
I have had tooth pain over the weekend - another joyful side effect of baby growing I believe. It's extremely sensitive to hot and cold so I think I may need to visit the dentist tomorrow, which also means that I need to register at a dentist! Haven't done that since we moved! Oops...
Also the back ache has increased. Was waiting for this to happen but its not the nicest! Hot water bottle and a back rub helps!

Bump?
Bump is fine when I wake up, but gets enormous as the day goes on... Its actaully starting to look like a nice proper baby bump. Am happy with the size of it at the moment. Would not mind if it doesn't get much bigger. For the sake of my back!
