We’re all going on a… rainy holiday?!

Updated on
holiday beach

Today we’re going away on our annual family getaway. Nowhere exotic, just Anglesey in Wales! Though I am rather looking forward to it after what we’ve been through this year. It will be bittersweet though as my mother in law was supposed to be joining us; though she will of course be in our thoughts. We’re staying in a lovely little cottage in Holyhead. As much as we would love to go abroad, we can never afford it. But, we have come to enjoy our UK holidays very much and will probably continue for years to come. I think a …

Wednesday 11th September – 16w 16 weeks pregnant today. By this stage when pregnant with little man I was feeling more energetic and refreshed. Not this time.

The ‘Berry’ Pregnancy Diaries – week 15

Updated on

Thursday 5th September – 15w 1d I’m sure I saw berry kicking for the first time today! It’s much earlier than with little man though, we first saw him kicking at 21+1. I forgot how amazing it was to see your belly moving.  Friday 6th September – 15w 2d Think I’m coming down with a cold or something. My nose is running. I have a headache. I can barely keep my eyes open. All I’ve wanted to do is sleep. Fat chance of that though! I always manage to have about 10 colds when I’m pregnant and can’t take a …
