I’ve been seeing lots of pregnant ladies
recently. Maybe because I’ve been
wandering in and out of Mothercare, scrounging for good deals.
Every time I see them, it reminds me of
when I was pregnant in 2008. I remember
it as a very happy time. I was filled
with lots of happy hormones… hmm… maybe that’s why Connor was a happy baby,
he’d been floating in them for nine months!
What I didn’t like was the back pain. I found our sofa immensely uncomfortable and
nothing I did helped. I tried propping
myself up with all sorts of cushions but they only worked temporarily. The only seats in the house that was comfy
for me were our leather recliner chairs.
Unlike the sofas, I could change the angle of the recline to suit my
aching back.
Even after I’d delivered Connor via
emergency C-section, I continued using the chairs. They were easier to climb out of than a sofa
and I spent many happy afternoons napping there with my little baby asleep on
me. They were also really comfortable
for breast-feeding sessions as I could rest my arm on the arm-rests with a
cushion propped under it for more support.
Guess who sometimes takes his afternoon
naps in the chair now? Yep… it’s Connor!
