Erm… So it’s a bit of a short one this week! Friday 25th October – 22w 2d I had a major pregzilla meltdown yesterday over the cupcakes I’m making for my cousin’s wedding. Bloody hormones! They are done now though so I’m relieved (and tired. And achy!). Saturday 26th October – 22w 3d It’s been a long day as we have been at my cousin’s amazing wedding all afternoon/evening. I am absolutely shattered but it was definitely worth it! Tuesday 29th October – 22w 6d I’ve had bump pain today, not like anything I’ve had before. It’s not like BH, …

The ‘Berry’ Pregnancy Diaries – week 20
Wednesday 9th October – 20w “Oh oh, we’re halfway there”! We made it! Thursday 10th October – 20w 1d Looking in the mirror today, I think I look huge already! For me anyway, I wasn’t as big at this stage with little man. I also finally started taking Spatone today after lots of recommendations from people. I will let you know how I get on.

Tuesday 15th October – 20w 6d I think …
