At Eloise Mama HQ we have our very own mum-to-be. In a series of blogs, Cathy will share her experiences throughout her pregnancy including the highs and the lows. We hope you enjoy her first installment.......
"Having so far resisted the urge to go baby shopping, this week I have started to look longingly at baby products and can't wait to go shopping. Now that the morning sickness has subsided and I've started to get back to my normal self, it's much easier to feel excited about the baby.
I have decided to find out the sex of the baby and only have two and a half weeks until my next scan. Although it would be lovely to have a surprise, I am very impatient and would like to know which colour to paint the nursery and pretty much everything out there seems to be available in either blue or pink!
Although I haven't bought anything for the baby the same cannot be said for myself. I have taken advantage of my changing shape and have bought a whole wardrobe of lovely maternity clothes. It's been a great excuse to spoil myself. Of course it's not just been my tummy that's grown, my boobs have now gone up a healthy couple of sizes and I've had to invest in some lovely new bras.
At the beginning of my pregnancy my skin was far more oily and prone to outbreaks, luckily this has now cleared up. So far I have not had any stretch marks and have been smothering myself in coco butter every night. I think it's important to feel pampered during pregnancy, so I've been trying to take the time out for a nice bubble bath whenever I get the chance."
