This is not a pregnancy announcement, I repeat, this is not a pregnancy announcement. I most certainly do not have a bun in the oven. But I will admit that I cannot wait for a second baby. Despite a few horrible weeks during my pregnancy; horrific back pain and heartburn so bad that I was throwing up most nights (and no, the old wives tale isn't true - my daughter was born bald and over a year later she is still waiting on hair!), I cannot wait to have a bump again. I certainly didn't appreciate being pregnant the first time round and I do regret that.

Back to work I go.
The inevitable has arrived - I'm heading back to work.
I've managed to have a lovely, almost, fourteen months off work, with the odd KIT day and overtime thrown in for good measure to keep me fresh and sane. I tell a lie, I've actually been in work on training for the last five or so weeks, but have yet to do a "real" shift.

The parent I wanted to be.
I always knew that I wanted my own family. When I found out I was pregnant, I already knew what type of parent I wanted to be:
Baby wearing
No dummy
No shouting/telling off
Organic, homemade foods
No TV or electronics
No co sleeping
No sugary drinks

Who am I?
Who exactly am I? When I think of that, the first thing I think is a mother; not a wife, friend, 26 soon to be 27 year old. It is true that you do lose yourself when you become a mum, to do so is almost like a rite of passage. You will become an expert on baby poop, temperatures and what can and can't be done. In the beginning, all you will talk about is babies. That's what it felt like to me and in all honesty, yes I bored myself.

Every Movement Matters
The first time I felt some sort of movement during my pregnancy was the day after my 12 week scan (turns out I was actually 14 weeks along). I was at a spa day about to have a massage when I felt what I can only describe as popping in my stomach.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Being judged is something that we all experience at one point or another - this can happen at any age; from being judged for playing with the "wrong" gender toys when you're a child, to not going to the "cool" clubs at 18.

Here we go again.
Life has somewhat taken over again ... and again I apologise.
I miss writing; pouring my thoughts into written form. But, quite frankly, I don't have the time anymore. With an almost 11 month old who has mastered the art of crawling and is very close to walking unaided, blogging is the last thing on my to do list which in itself is a shame.

Let's go where we've never gone...
So, technically the title of this is not all that correct. I have been to the place where we went, approximately 12 years ago. But this time, it was much more memorable.

Friendship
I do believe that without friendship, life would be a pretty boring thing. Everyone needs someone to socialise with, to share ups and downs and of course to have a good old gossip!
During my 26 and a half years I have gained and lost a lot of friendships - mainly through growing apart and me being a bit of a walkover with people.

Long Distance
I was always the person who promised myself that I would never ever get into a long distance relationship. The thought of being away from someone that I loved made me feel sick and then there's the trust side of it. After being royally tucked over in previous relationships, my trust has always been low and I have always been fiercely guarded over my emotions. After my last relationship ended I vowed to never let my guard down again
