Pregnancy diary number 5

Monday, March 19, 2007

At the moment when I feed Luna my breasts feel really tender! It isn't every feed and it isn't really painful, just tender. At the moment I'm just coping with it because it is bearable.
Also I am sooo tired today I could sleep on the keyboard!

Today we visited an animal sanctuary with HRH's therapist L.
There are quite a few farm animals but mainly sheep. L helps to heal the poorly animals and also uses the animals as part of the children's therapy because they have all been mistreated in some way or another and so abused children in particular can identify with them.
We are of course aware that lambs and ewes pose a toxoplasmosis threat and so I didn't touch any of the animals and was careful not to hold hand with the children etc. We've been to farms before when I have been pregnant and so we weren't concerned particularly because there weren't any lambs there.
However, the old lady who runs the sanctuary was really concerned. She gave me a pair of rubber gloves to wear, (which I did), and advised that I speak to my doctor because there might be a vaccination to prevent the infection. I humoured her because she was obviously just concerned but I know there is no such vaccination!
We were quite confident that we took plenty of care but as usual her concern caused me to doubt myself. Still, so far so good I'm fine and the baby is wiggling like a good one!

Nigel was feeling my tummy last night and he felt the baby... not move as much as flop! But whatever it did Nigel felt it!
