But first, yesterday during my dentist visit, a visit recommended to all pregnant women, the dental nurse told me about a new baby shop in Warragul. It is owned/run by the head of Midwifery at Warragul Hospital where I will be having little Ernie and was apparently very good. So of course, after my teeth were cleaned as that was all that needed doing, I headed off in to visit the shop.
Ann, the lovely owner/midwife was wonderful and had a fantastic shop with everything an expectant or new mother might need for both herself and the baby. There were the nicest maternity clothes that I have seen by a company called 'Ripe', the type of clothes that I would wear if I wasn't pregnant, but made to suit a pregnant body. I'm sure I'll be getting some of these, especially some pants fairly shortly.
Finally with Ann's help I did my first baby shopping and came home with some toweling nappies (great apparently for wiping and mopping up baby sick), baby wipes and somethings called snib fasteners which she assured me were on the list of things that I would need to take to the hospital. I also looked at some other cots by a company called Sunbury Nursery and they seem to be even better quality than the 'Childcare' ones I had been looking at and unlike the Childcare which only seems to come in a colour that won't suit our house, the Sunbury ones come with a lot of choice including Cedar, which would fit with in well with our house.

It has the most gorgeous teddy bears on it or you can have other designs as well. I also started looking at another Jogger that will let you put a toddler seat on it. The Beema Q doesn't let you do that, something I need to weigh up against the smaller size of the Beema Q.

So lots to think about... and more research to be done. But at least I've started shopping. Oh and I've done my first load of baby washing... without actually having a baby.
Anyway, back to that dream. So I'm at home, the parents seem very understanding that I'm pregnant, although I don't seem to be married and Jochen is no where to be found. I'm not even sure that he is still the father and I definitely didn't use IVF - it seems to be an accident. So I've been to Ann's shop (the tie in from that days activities) and told her that I don't need maternity clothes yet. The next morning (in my dream still) I wake up and I'm huge... probably almost about to pop in size but still only almost fifteen weeks. The main part of the dream involved me telling Mum and Dad that I had nothing to wear and that I couldn't possibly go to school wearing my tracksuit pants below my very big belly. Kell and I would have to drive to Warragul first so I could get some clothes that fit and then we would go to school. Everyone was happy with that solution, so off we went. This seemed to resolve the problem and I woke up before I actually got to do any shopping.
So that was my second dream... I'm not sure what the meaning is... maybe it's still along the lines of not being prepared... Who Knows.
