Manning up

Whilst I promised myself I wasn't going to get too hung up about my pregnancy weight, how can you not be? I am therefore very happy to report that I've put on a relatively small amount and it's only in the last 2 weeks or so that my bump has become visible, even then I've been told I'm very small for ~20 weeks which is great. 20 weeks - ack - halfway through! That's some scary shit! ;-)

I need to man up and buy some maternity clothes though because I cannot now do up my jeans without causing myself misery.

Ginger is still so beautiful and whilst I really want to ride I'm nervous that for the first time in my life I won't land on my head but on my abdomen.

I went out on saturday with an Englishwoman I met in the park the other week when we were walking our dogs. It was so nice to be able to converse in my mother-tongue for a few hours with someone who isn't BM obviously! She's really nice and down-to-earth and loves horses... which may solve my Ginger problem. She's coming to meet the horse next weekend.
