The ''Safe Zone"



Ahhh - I am happily waving goodbye to the first trimester and giving it a semi awkward hug as we definitely were not friends the whole time.

Hello second trimester!

I can finally sleep a little better at night knowing the risk of miscarriage is significantly less. It was like I woke up that morning and felt instantly lighter and much less fragile. All symptoms have pretty much disappeared (apart from the odd body aches and lower back pain/pelvic pain getting worse) - the human body just continues to amaze me.

I've gone in for my 3 month scan & have been told everything looks great. *relief*
We also got our results for the sex - and didn't really mind as we would have been over the moon either way. (at least now the styling of the nursery can begin.....more on that later)
Everything is looking & feeling good.. and now the fun part!

So excited to be able to share our news - how to tell our family first, and then our friends?
Etsy have some really cute & creative ways of telling people by giving them something small.
A few of my personal favourites:

Booties In A Box

Grandma/Grandpa Mugs

Expecting Jigsaw

Custom Wine Tag

Ticket Invitation

Chalkboard Photo



We were anti-announcing on social media. I mean, people will find out eventually, and to us it was more important that our family and friends were told face to face. This is really a personal choice though, especially if you have a lot of friends and family you want to tell at one time, or if you live interstate or overseas - it can make things a lot easier.

Now that you are at ease, in the second trimester & have told everyone - it's really time you start enjoying yourself a little, don't you think? Is it too soon to start shopping?
