5 signs I’m not pregnant for the first time
1. Last time I was pregnant I had a chance to lie down on the sofa after work. This time I’m lying on the floor instead wondering how it’s possible to smudge a million pieces of Play-Doh into wooden floor boards in the five minutes the activity was deemed to be fun
2. Last time I was pregnant I got worried if I carried a big book or a heavy shopping bag. This time I regularly walk–or even run–around carrying 13kg+, as I feel I have very little choice when I’m responsible for someone who frequently refuses to walk in the direction we’re going or move forward at all
3. Last time I was pregnant I booked scans and appointments as early as possible. Now my consultant has to remind me to book any necessary scans and check-ups
4. Last time I was pregnant I called as early as possible to get any sort of test results. Now I shoot off an email ftom my iPhone three weeks later when I suddenly realise I’ve forgotten to check, and hope I haven’t missed anything crucial
5. Last time I was pregnant I wanted a pram with a large carrycot suitable for baby to sleep in for as long as possible when we would take her with us to friends and quiet restaurants. Now I only want a compact buggy with a slim, detachable carrycot to take baby with me when working from cafes and collecting Baby Girl from nursery, and I keep debating how soon I can switch to the Maclaren
