    woowoo!!!!

    My bump seems to go through phases of looking clearly pregnancy bump and then just making me look like im still carrying puppy fat from my pre-teens.....

    And did anyone else's skin just seem to go to pot?!
    I've got dry flaky skin on my forehead and nose, red patches round the side of my nose, circles under my eyes are a totally new shade of purple!

    I've never felt so totally unattractive....
    And to boot ive now got one pair of yoga pants that fit comfortably, and thats it, and cant afford to buy anything.....

    :(


    U have my sympathy! I feel exactly the same. I have really dry skin on my head and round my nose, its minging and no amounts of exfoliiating/moisturising willl shift it!!

    pp he is adorable!! :D i really can't wait to meet my baby, only 6 months to go lol. Glad your both back home xx

    CAFCGirl my skin has gone horrible too. I haven't been able to put any make up on because my skin is so dry and flaky although I think I normally suffer with my skin at this time of year anyway.
  • PP he is GORGEOUS:D:D Hopefully the girls will help you out a bit...after they've finished fighting of course:p:D

    Will lurk for a name now:D:D:D Congrats again xxx

    Its like a catch 22...

    I know having a bit of make up on will make me feel a lot better bout how i currently look, but then i try and my skin ends up looking even worse....

    Ive tried e45, nivea, no 7 and nothing seems to help....have used copious amounts of face scrub and its still there..... by law i should have a dent out of my face by now ive scrubbed that much :p

    Aww PP he's lovely!!!! Glad you are home now too. Hopefully karma will dictate the he's a perfect baby after a difficult pregnancy and labour!

    Well we are also having fajitas for tea but I really fancy curry as we were just talking about it! I could also quite nicely eat a thai green curry now!

    Didn't get up til late again so had breakfast late, didn't fancy lunch at 3 when DH had his so waited for dinner, now I'm starving so have treated baby to a banana and a choclate milk and resisted the cupcake that was calling my name!!

    So I weighed myself last week and then again a day or so ago, and I'd actually lost weight! Crazy. Only about 4lbs but still I was quite surprised. All I've done for the past few months is eat!! (And I have no plans to stop!!!)

    CAFC my skin got worse at the start of pg, then got really good, so hopefully once this weather thaws out a bit it might get a lot better!

    My nails have also been super strong since getting pg, they used to split and break all the time but they are nice now! I'll miss them once baby is here!
