Week 32 PART 2

Hi
Quick update, visited OB yesterday. BABETTE is well, although Im 32 weeks, her little size is one of a 30 week old..no cause for alarm, head approx 30 cm . OB thinks she will deliver around 7 pd or high 6's which is about 3 kgs. So, hopefully it will make easier for a bearable delivery.

Im struggling with the 100 ball challenge, up to 35 now. Also, experiencing pins and needles in left hand, apparently I have typical carpal tunnel which is common for pregnant women. O well....it's a temporary condition so I shld be OK post birth (cross fingers).

This weekend- hopefully we will organise rooms so next post may be a nursery view.
Thanks everyone for your comments in WK 32 !!

Bye for now.

Week 32 - 100 ball challenge

Hi All,
Its been a while between posts. Have been busy being a domestic goddess...what you say?
Making 100% cotton basinette sheets and mini cushions...will post up in next blog entry.

I've also given myself a 100 ball challenge...i.e to make 100 crochet balls by the time BABETTE enters the world...wish me luck. Here is the first 25 :

Also - I dabbled into some amiragumi - I did these for fun for my Brother in law..
However I do find these troublesome..so I don't think I will do many more of these. Do you recognise the guys?
OK...well how am I doing...well BABETTE is kicking several times a day and keeping MTB awake at night. I'm also having weird dreams about running in the forest and jumping over trees..a bit "TWILIGHT" without Robert Pattinson to my dismay... I have heard at times Mothers experience weird dreams...bizarre.

DTB and me are slowly working out room re-organisation for the nursery- we have pretty much the std stock items and will slowly get the rest in good time. We are very excited and realising the names list is becoming a very important items on the "TO DO LIST"...we will get there I am sure.

Here is a pic of me - at 32 Weeks....waist is 103 cm (not sure if that's big or small....either way...I'm very pregnant and still can't believe Ive made it this far - god bless her little socks !)
Pls feel free to leave a comment guys as I intend to print a BLOG book so Babette can look back and have a nice read....when she finally meets you she can say ..Oh is that what Aunty XX looks like ??(You get the picture)

Thanks all....till next post.
