say aaaaaaaaaah!

so 2011 is finally here and i start this year on a very exciting note. jp and i have finally agreed on the fact that it is time to make a big sister out of siena. she's 3 and a half now and has started to realise that all her cousins and school friends have got little brothers or sisters, and she tells me daily that she wants a pink girl, not a blue boy, but definitely a pink girl. daddy on the other hand tells me he definitely wants a blue boy, which secretly i want too. but due to the age gap, a girl may be best for my little monkey, so either way i'll be thrilled.

so on thursday i had my first gynae appointment (3 years overdue, but life happens in between) i really love my gynae, she is awesome. after a chat, an internal scan, a pap smear and some blood tests, this body is ready for action. a bit anaemic but nothing an iron sup can't sort out. (note iron can wreak havoc on your regular twice a day routine, so i drink half a tablet daily instead)

it also just happens that i started ovulating on this day so gynae told me to go home and get busy! smsed jp the second i left her office. something along the lines of 'be ready, i'm on my way'.

conveniently jp and i have decided to start eating healthier this year and due to a holiday planned with friends, kelly and nick, in bali in april, we need to get our old beach bodies back! (don't know if i ever had one of those, but having a baby is a really good excuse to why i'm a bit outta shape, nevermind that it has been over 3 years)

jp, has decided to stop drinking and smoking hubblies for 'beach body' reasons but this is great news for baby making reasons too, need those swimmers to be able to swim in a straight line afterall.

so thursday night was fun, spent some time propped up on a pillow, and gynae reckoned to wait a day and then 'get busy' on the saturday too. which was going really well until siena woke up and came through to the bedroom to ask for a milky bottle, jp made it by seconds. 'dad will get it my angel, mommy needs to lie down cause her back is really sore', (couldn't risk gravity robbing me of my chances) jp is also under a strict 'no touching yourself' rule before ovulation week, need those swimmers to be strong and plentiful.

now we wait... i don't do well with waiting! patience and i are barely on speaking terms...
