Here I am now at week 23!! Baby is kicking well and everything seems to be going well even though I am not getting any sleep.

My child is going to be a party animal like its mother! Loves to wake up about 11 o’clock which is my bed time the little rascal ha ha Cravings! Well what can I say…. My cravings have been very varied. At first it was the normal thing that I just wanted to eat as much junk as possible but then I noticed that this junk was replaced with anything that I could put onions with.

Cheese and onion on toast, onion and avocado sandwich’s, pickled onions etc. very nice but very smelly!

Then this week something really odd happened….. I started craving meat!!! I have been a vegetarian for 18 years and never even thought about trying to eat meat again until now.

The first time I realised it was when a colleague was sat opposite me eating sausage rolls, they smelt lovely!! So I went home and had some Linda McCartney rolls to see if that would help but no! then the next day my brother was cooking lamb chops which again smelt out of this world!!! He offered one to me but I just could not do it, what happened if it made me poorly? I was very naughty on Sunday when he brought some Pork Scratching's home from millets farm. The temptation was just too much and I gave in! only had a few as I thought that the craving would disappear but it hasn’t! What am I going to do? I am eating bacon flavour crisps and quorn meat but nothing seems to be working!! Any suggestions?!

Another odd thing has happened this week. I have become organised and I cant stop cleaning!! I have been getting ideas about where I am going to try and fit all the baby and my things in my room. So I thought a good sort out was needed! Two bin bags later and I still don’t have a clue where I am going to put everything!!
