Charlie's Pregnancy Tips
Before I start, here's a little disclaimer... I am not a midwife or anything like that. I have no training, formal or otherwise. This is just stuff I found helpful for me. Not everything works for everyone. Not everyone's pregnancy is the same. Just because these things worked for me, it doesn't mean they will work for you. Please don't shout at me!

Again, I don't claim to be an expert at all! I am currenlty expecting my second baby and I am simply making a note of my own experiences. Jack is my first born. He's a honeymoon baby too, which I think is pretty special. "Squiggle" is a baby we've tried really hard to have, which makes them really special too. My two pregnancies have been very different (which leads me to think that Squiggle may be a girl, although the odds are against it and everyone else thinks it's a boy). I have here a mini blog about each of my pregancies, and the difficulties we had in conciving a second time. I also have a few tips on shopping pre-baby, and what to take to the hospital (if you choose to go and not have a home birth) I'll keep a list of links up here which you might find helpful. the best one - I think - is the Pregnancy Forum which is actually for people trying to get pregnant right the way through the whole of motherhood! I signed up when we caught with Jack and I have never really been away. I don't see myself leaving any time soon either :oD |
