Okay I haven't had a rant in a while, and I think it is about time I did. Several different things.
Size of my belly:
I have a reasonably sized bump for 31wks; not huge, but a nice size. Do other people recognise this fact? No, because apparently it is 'too small' or 'thats hardly a baby'. It drives me insane! The problem I think, is that they think some of my belly is fluid or something when in reality it is ALL BABY. I cannot poke one part of my belly and not feel Kezzy. Some people have been really nice, until I posted my 31wk baby bump on facebook and of all people, my sister, dear concerned loving sister told me there was hardly anything there! What right do these people have to tell me whether my belly is good enough? Most of the people judging me haven't even been pregnant!
Heartburn:
Yeah yeah, we all get it, I know. Last night though I was in tears for hours because of it, I ended up scolling that much water that I had to vomit (which actually helped a little bit) anyway DF had the wonderful idea of googling natural therapies (because we are stone broke) and found several websites suggesting raw potato, so out to the kitchen DF went and peeled and cleaned me a potato. Now you may not believe this, but within 3mins I had almost no acid, it popped up again a little when I layed down but took only seconds to go away. Thankgod for potatos and google!
FIL:
He is still here, it's been like 4months and he is still here! Driving me insane, all he does is puts in $120 into rent and expects to eat our food, smoke our smokes etc. Currently we have a $900+ electricity bill, a $2000+ phone/internet bill, rent is $360 a fortnight and every two months we have to buy a gas bottle which can cost anywhere between $150 and $200! Not only that he thinks it is within his right to discipline our pets, thinks he can eat everything (we are having to get food vouchers all the time because he eats so much!) also he wastes most of his pay on grog and we are left starving. It's so F*cked up!
On a lighter note we got two adorable kittens, Dexter and Tilly, they are nearly 5wks old; we've had to wean them ourselves. I tell you what though, having kittens winge at you at ungodly hours of the night (not so bad now but a week ago they were!) is good training for a baby waking me up all hours. I shall attach piccies so you can see them
I shall also attach picture of baby bump and you can be the judge of the 'too small' stigma!
Hmm... Our two puppies are getting so big now, 10months old! We are renting the house for an extra 12months which means I don't have to worry about accomodation when bub is born. This is the stuff for bub I have so far!
So yay
Ok piccies

) - why can't people just say it's a nice bump and leave it at that, if they want to comment?
