15 Weeks 6 Days

Posted by: typealice In: Baby|Daily|Family|Travelling

I get to hop on a plane the day after tomorrow. I can’t wait. For the price of my flight to Halifax, I could have taken a trip to the BVI or England or lots of other places. Flying within Canada is too expensive. I wish I was spending the next week snorkeling instead, as [...]

Birthday Annoyance

Posted by: typealice In: Gillian

My birthday is in a couple of weeks and I’m frustrating a lot of people with not being able to think of anything I want. Clive’s brought up buying me glasses and RAM. I definitely need glasses and intend on getting them, but I don’t want them for my birthday. RAM is a decent idea, [...]

Nova Scotia

Posted by: typealice In: Baby|Family|I <3 Clive|Travelling

I’m going to Nova Scotia for a vacation next week. I can’t wait. It’s been since last June that I’ve been home, and that trip only lasted two days. I plan on going to see the ocean and spending time with my mom, step-dad, sister and brother. I also plan on being spoiled rotten by [...]

15 Weeks

Posted by: typealice In: Baby|Daily

This week I’ve been feeling pretty pregnant. Sleeping on my stomach finally feels like I’m laying on a grapefruit, and I’m finally “showing.” Part of me is every excited about showing, and part of me is dissapointed… Even though I’m never skinny (except for the few months I lived in Mexico), I always have a [...]

Please Stop with all of the Barfing

Posted by: typealice In: Baby

Last night was rough. I couldn’t keep anything in my stomach for longer than 30 seconds for hours and hours. Just before I went to bed I ate one arrowroot cracker and 3.5 strawberries and was actually able to keep it down. There was one point where I was so frustrated with throwing up (and [...]

Healthy Baby!

Posted by: typealice In: Baby

Everything is great with the baby! We got to hear the heartbeat (Clive took video- I will upload it later) and she said it was up in the 150 range, which is great! My iron levels are low, which means I should start taking my multivitamins again (hopefully I can keep them down now), or [...]

Wish Us Luck!

Posted by: typealice In: Baby|I <3 Clive

Last night I found out what projectile vomiting feels like. It sucks! I decided to stop taking my anti-nausea medication for three days, and although the first two days were decent, last night was some of the worst puking I’ve ever experienced. I wish I didn’t have to take the drugs, but without them, I’d [...]

Posted by: typealice In: Baby|Daily

So! It’s impossible for me to suck in my stomach anymore. I can suck in my the area just below my ribcage, but that doesn’t do anything but make me look like I have a weird body. I also can’t breathe when I do this, so this will be the only photogenic evidence of me [...]

Niagara

Posted by: typealice In: Family|I <3 Clive|Travelling

My sister, Clive and I went to Niagara Falls for a very short trip yesterday, and Ambera hurt Clive! She says it was an accident, but I’m not sure I believe her.

  • Asheo: 3rd birthday is coming up really soon! So a few days early... Happy Birthday Ash!
  • April: I feel the blog revolt as well. I am not comfortable saying some of the things I would like to say with strangers, and I don't feel I'm able to mask
  • Stefanie: Hello, I have been a follower of yours since the BME days… and have always found your blog fascinating. This came across my blog today, and I though

About

I'm Gillian, a world-traveller turned natural parent. I believe in primal parenting; breastfeeding, baby wearing, cosleeping, cloth diapering, elimination communication, vegetarianism and all things natural. I have very strong parenting views. There's nothing better in my life than my days with my kid. Also: sushi and sweet white wine, skinny jeans and black tshirts, torrents and sugar.

My sustainable accessories company Pip Robins keeps me busy in the evenings.
