I’ve been pregnant for 40 weeks and I reached my due date today! Just one question – where is my baby?!?!?! In my favorite pregnancy book Pregnancy Day By Day I read that anything between 37 and 42 weeks of pregnancy is considered to be normal. Well, that’s great but I really thought baby girl would […]

This post is about pregnancy weight gain because I know many women are very interested, if not concerned about this aspect of pregnancy. (Scroll down for charts and pictures). I’ve never been too concerned about my weight – most probably because I have never had any issues with it. I’ve always eaten healthy, stayed away […]

Entering pregnancy week 39 and baby is still baking! I was born at 38 weeks but looks like baby Mia is enjoying her time in the belly! 🙂 What’s happening this week? Baby’s crown to rump length is 36-37 cm or 14.2-14.6 inches. Baby weighs about 3.2 kg or 7 pounds. Baby’s skin is pink […]

Here I am in week 37 and I feel the baby behaving differently! Instead of being quiet and having hiccups 2-3 times a day, she almost lost the hiccups and is wriggling around much more. I also feel her as if she descended slightly. I think she might be arriving in two weeks time, which […]

I’m entering week 36 of pregnancy!!! Hurray! I even found one source which states that after week 35 of pregnancy, baby is considered full term. Wow! All the other publications I’ve read consider the baby to be full term at 37 weeks but it’s great to know that she’s almost ready! So what’s going on with […]

I’m already starting my 34th week! How exciting!!! While baby is steadily gaining weight – exactly as Pregnancy Day By Day indicates, I am at the same number of kilos as I was in week 26! That is however due to my fantastic acid reflux and regular throwing up (not fun) – but I think I found […]

(Scroll down for pictures of pregnancy.) The pregnant belly is a mystery (well not for your gynecologist, but still), it’s where the miracle of life starts (really that would be the fallopian tube but let’s not get into details now), it’s where we’ve all spent 9 months (some much shorter!) before we came to this […]

She seems more and more real to me with the hiccups and the stretching in my belly and even reminding me to be happy – when I once got sad and started crying she was obviously disturbed and made me throw up – that definitely stopped the crying! She’s clearly on her way (it’s only […]

A few days ago a stranger finally noticed I was pregnant! It was a little girl standing in line in front of me to get a gelato. She whispered to her friend: “There’s a pregnant lady!” I had to wait 30 entire weeks for somebody to notice but it finally happened! Everything is going great […]
