9 weeks tomorrow and I just love being pregnant....(lighthearted)

I love the fact that I had to stop the car to puke into a Sainsbury's bag this morning on a main road . When I thought i had cleared everything out, i drove the last 2 mins along the road to work and whilst trying to negotiate my parking space, I threw up again all over my clothes. Cue a panic run to the bathroom and scrubbing everything down so I could go to Morrison's and buy a whole new outfit as I live over 30mins away from work!

On a more positive note, i bought a lovely new jumper and the MOST comfortable pair of cheap joggers. Luckily, my work has a laundry so i managed to sneak everything in to be washed ( im the most senior person on today!) ... every cloud and all that..... 😂

Congratulations on being the sort of person who decided to go into work! I would have given up, gone home and turned my phone off 😂

I'm 21 weeks so happily past the glamourous vomiting stage but did become temporarily FURIOUS today that I was expected to sit through a two-hour training this morning with no loo break. What sort of a person is capable of sitting for two hours straight?! Oh right, anyone who isn't pregnant...

@Thankyouthankyoujellybean the temptation was there to just get back in the car, drive home and crawl back into bed 😝

The glamourous vomiting/nauseous stage is just amazing... i thank myself every day!! i now will have to make sure i have an outfit change in my car for any further vomiting episodes 🙀

and how dare they make you sit for 2 hours without a loo break.... You should have just peed on the seat. They wouldn't be long moving you then 😂
