Dear Bean – Week Twenty One

Dear Bean

Another week ticked off! Baya said to me today ‘I want my baby brother right now’! A week of knowing you’re a boy, and I’m still as happy as I was last week. A little comrade for my Beastie boy is just perfect and a boy to balance out the numbers {slightly}.

I’m feeling pretty good, enjoying this second-trimester glow. I’m not sleeping great, but I think that’s more with having a lot playing on my mind than pregnancy. I’ve been feeling more and more little kicks -the other morning I woke up to Bean using my bladder for some kickboxing practice ha!

I have got a couple of strong name contenders, though I’m keeping them secret. The kids keep coming up with various suggestions, but arguing with each other over who’s is the best. I may change my mind, but I’ve got a couple of combinations that I LOVE right now.

I’m starting to collect more and more bits for Bean now, I’ve just been through the couple of boxes of baby clothes that I kept, and pulled the boy/unisex/not too girly stuff out ready for a wash. I have a spare tallboy in my room that I need to clear out ready for keeping baby bits in. A few friends have offered up clothes and cloth nappies that they have too, so we should all be sorted soon.

There is really no hiding this bump anymore – though I was comparing it to photos of the same week when I was expecting Beastie and I don’t think it’s quite as big!
