Number one!

Drum roll please....

So this is blog entry number one! Here we go...

My intention was to type something up a little earlier on in the day but unfortunately I set foot in the kitchen and well lets just say it took a while for me to find my way out!

You're probably wondering what I mean by that. Well I am currently 40 weeks pregnant and 6 days, for all the ladies out there that have previously been pregnant and all the math geeks (sadly I'm not one of them) you should have figured that I am officially 6 days overdue. My little bundle of joy seems to be a little too comfortable in Mummy's tummy.

In these last stages of pregnancy I feel like an elephant, look like an elephant and most certainly eat like an elephant... Mind you, I don't actually know what an elephants diet consists of, though I'm sure it doesn't consist of chips, chocolate, crisps and fizzy drinks! But you get the idea... Throughout most of my pregnancy my main cravings have been junk food. I did develop a craving that nobody seems to have heard of before. It is quite embarrassing but nothing compared to eating toilet paper or chalk (now that is just nasty) this weird but wonderful craving I developed was having the urge... And when I say urge I mean URGE to inhale the beautiful fumes of my vacuum *sigh* oh, the thought of it almost makes my mouth water. I have no idea what I can compare the smell to. It's almost like a stuffy smell, sort of like heat and dust mixed together... Great, I've made things worse for myself now because the sound of heat and dust mixed together doesn't at all seem as scrumptious as I'm making out. I use my vacuum at least 3 times a day, and if I'm feeling naughty I'll just turn it on and sit there inhaling the lovely fumes... Sad, I know. Unfortunately being so far gone in pregnancy I have plenty of time on my hands so I'm able to do freaky things like that. :)


It is currently 1 o.clock in the morning and I'm sitting in bed with the laptop wedged between my huge bump and my pillow falling asleep as I type. I would love to say it has been a long day but if I'm honest it hasn't. I've been indoors all day cleaning and eating haha but when you're as pregnant as I am everyday is a long day no matter what you're doing!

I was intending on writing so much more but if my eyes shut one more time I may just fall asleep at my laptop and I really don't need the back ache of being slouched over (I sound like such an old lady!) So I am going to have to call it a night. I'm slightly disappointed at how boring this post is but hey at least I wrote about something.

Off to bed I go. May Allah allow me to see another day Insha'Allah.

Asalaamu alaykum warahmatullah.
