Hi all, just checking in after a week's holiday in Italy. Miraculously no sickness whilst I was out there, just the usual nausea and tiredness after a big meal, but at least I ate! I broke the rule about deli meat - there was a famous sandwich shop and the menu was strictly in Italian, so I went potluck, and ended up with salami and various other condiments, but it was SO GOOD that I felt it was worth the potential risk. I did avoid the hot tub at the villa though, so I was good on that regard. Typically, back to routine, back to sickness - just when I thought I was easing at 14 + 3, evidently not.
The holiday was with my friend's extended family, so I felt OK about sharing name choices with them, as they barely know me. They loved all of them and suggested a few of their own, so that was good. But I'm thinking we'll keep the sex a secret, as well as the name, once we find out. Boys seem easier for us than a girl. Well, I have lots of girl options but DH is adamant to go with his gran's name, which wouldn't be the end of the world, but it's got other connotations with me which he'd be devastated to hear about, and at the end of the day, I could get over it. So I'm keeping an open mind, and who knows, I might suggest such a good alternative that he decides to go with it!
I'm considering buying a pregnancy pillow - so far I've been using a normal pillow between my knees which has been fine, but do the specific pillows support bump too? That's what I feel is lacking.
My boss still doesn't want me to go public at work as she's yet to work out who will take over my projects - I understand that but I'm going to be showing really obviously soon!!! Maybe I should make it even more obvious so she has to tell everyone?!
Oh, and I'll not be Facebooking - I deleted my account a while back so I'll carry on posting on here :-)
