Over The Weekend #16

By Saturday morning I was feeling a little better

after Oisín had a sleep over on Friday night

at his Grandparents so I could rest and sleep in

Saturday morning. It was a lovely treat and

just what I needed to get back on my feet!

 

After collecting Oisín from his grandparents

we went to my favourite place the library!

I got lots of lovely books to keep me going

in February!

We then went for a quick walk in the park

and to get a few bits from the shop

Oisín was really tired at this stage so we

didn't hang around for long

We had a lovely steak dinner and Oisín

enjoyed dipping his chips in the pepper sauce!

 

After Oisín was bathed (he had an early night as he wasn't himself)

I had a hot shower got into my pjs and chilled out

We watched the movie Legend with Tom Hardy so much eye candy!

 

Poor little mister Oisín picked up a little tummy bug

and Sunday was spent looking after our little boy

He was off his food and slept for most of the day

we keep giving him plenty of fluids and he

seems so much better today

 

After Oisín was tucked up in bed

I could relax with a glass of red and

Call The Midwife

Then it was off to bed for an early night

(Or maybe I read one of my library books till 1am!!)

 



Babies, Babies Every Where!

Recently it seems my facebook newsfeed is full with friends announcing there pregnancy, Instagram is full of scan pictures, youtube is awash with pregnancy announcements, my blogger feed is all pregnancy updates along with some close friends also announcing there pregnancy

I am totally happy and blessed for all these people, family friends, social media friends and strangers

Creating and bringing a new life into the world is an amazing thing. One of the best feelings in the world. The love for your child is like no other and a love I never truly understood until my son came along. 

Now that Oisín is almost two I have longed to get pregnant and have a sibling for him. With my PCOS such a big part of my life I knew we would have to try for a while. We have being trying for almost a year now with no result, the treatment which seemed to have worked the first time around is not working. I have lost weight and have undergone a lifestyle change in eating right, losing weight weekly, do weekly exercise and start yoga classes. Nothing seemed to be working this time around for us, but we did get some good news this week.

We are now starting a new fertility treatment which is a little more intense which fingers crossed might work. I am taking a no stress approach this time around, trying to not let getting pregnant take up all my mind space and time. 

I hate when people ask me when are you having another one (meaning baby) Sometimes its not as easy as having another and sometimes couples can't have another child for one reason or other.

I am not giving up yet but if it never happens for me again at least I have this beautiful face

I might never be a Mammy to a large family but I AM a Mammy and thats all I ever wanted
