Hi guys,

I have not posted anything for a while as I have been focused on my pregnancy. Recently, I have suffered from loads of back ache and heartburn which is not nice and I have wanted to clean all the time but apparently that is what pregnant women do when their due date is approaching.

However, from this pregnancy I have realised a lot. I have noticed I have changed, physically and mentally, in a good way.

Naturally, I am a small curvy girl and I have always been a good weight that I have been happy with. During my pregnancy I have put on nearly 2 stone so at first I got really self-conscious and was not happy at all. At the time it was upsetting for me because it is something I am not used to but now I have realised I am not bothered what I weight as long as I am happy in life and my son is happy in life. During pregnancy everyone puts weight on and I always said as soon as he was here I would go gym and workout everyday but that is something I WILL NOT be doing anymore. I want to put all my time and effort into caring for my son and not worry about how I look.

I have definitely grown up and matured. I have not long turned 21 but knowing your becoming a mom just changes the way you think and how you feel about certain things. Some people may not like that and I have noticed some of my friends have become distant but when your having a child your whole life changes. You are responsible for another human so your mindset would definitely change but personality wise I am still the same person.

Regardless, you have to do what is best for you and I am so excited for motherhood now, but not long left.
