Morgans first holiday

Baby's need a lot of shit! 

We went away for the weekend to my parents caravan for Morgans first holiday. After we'd packed all her stuff and Jazz's stuff, there wasn't much room for ours 😂 but we managed to remember everything and had an amazing time.

For the last 9 years (minus last year - stupid covid), a group of around 10 of us have booked a cottage in the countryside for a long weekend of getting drunk, playing stupid games and cooking feasts! We knew we wouldn't be able to go this year with Morgan being so young / being the only couple with a baby. But we were still sad to be missing it, so we decided to go to the caravan and go visit the cottage for a day 😁

It was so lovely to get away! So relaxing and easier than I expected, though I guess it is like a second home - going somewhere new will be another challenge!

I'm sad.

Im struggling. I can't decide what to be sad about. That's how shit things are right now.  I'm trying to be positive. To look forwards. But I am just so fucking sad. And I can't even do anything to cheer myself up because I'm soo damn pregnant.  Although not being able to drink 12 pints right now is probably a good thing. I feel like I've lost so much this year.  The first back at the start of the year, a girl who was my bridesmaids (see previous posts). I guess to be fair, she was gone long ago. But it came to a head this year.  The second in August. I still dno what to say about this. I never even replied when he told me he couldn't be in my life anymore. I wrote out a million responses... Angry, logical, agreeing, disagreeing, angry again. But nothing I could have said really mattered, it was for the best. It was better to just say nothing at all. The third, only 3 weeks ago. My doggy 😭😭😭 I miss her so much. It's so strange losing a dog, everything...

I hate being pregnant.

And even saying that makes me feel like shit. But I do. This is just gonna feel like one massive whinge but I'm just finding it so hard and it's making me feel like a failure for not being able to cope. I feel like it impacts everything. I just don't feel like myself anymore. I can't do anything I love doing or rather I don't love it the same.  The smell of everything is different. My dogs food makes me gag. The smell of our fabric softener is so strong, it's making me hate it. I seem to be able to smell everything really strongly and it just makes me feel so sick all the time.  The taste of everything is different. I don't like squash. Or anything to drink really. Anything I eat puts a horrendous taste in my mouth and makes me feel sick. But I also can't stop eating. I feel fat and like I look like shit all the time.  I have completely gone off tea and coffee. The lack of caffeine is giving me wild headaches that I can only take paracetamol for, which d...

I want another baby.

(I wrote this a year ago and never published it... And now I'm 14 weeks pregnant... But I felt like I needed to post it before my next post)  Well I don't. I want 2 kids in my future and Morgan to have a sister. But the thought of going through the baby stage again fills me with dread. I didn't enjoy it the first time and the thought of doing it with a toddler in toe and a dog sounds beyond horrendous. But it is consuming my every thought. Having a second child is so much more logistical than the first. I am forever feeling like we need to make this decision almost immediately... I need to go back to full time to get a decent maternity pay... We need to make sure there's a space in Morgans nursery to accommodate that. How far in advance does this need to be? When do we take the plunge? Are we gonna start "trying"? Or just see what happens? Our life is fucking hard enough, will we survive this? Will I survive this? Is this really what I want?! I have never want...
