My Most Commonly Asked Questions This Pregnancy, Second Trimester

There is something about being pregnant that seems to lift a lot of people's proverbial filter, am I right?

The uninvited belly touching, the crazy personal questions, it's enough to make your head spin, exorcist style. I'm lucky mine have been quite tame this time around. Here are my top asked questions thus far, with my answers attached as well:

​
1. Are you going to find out the gender?

Yes!


2. Would you prefer a boy or a girl?

I'd love to give my husband the boy he has always dreamed of.
I wanted my firstborn to be a boy, but I was so happy once I give birth to and met my baby girl!


3. How far along are you?

24 weeks.


4. Are you going public or private for the birth?

Private.


5. Where are you having the baby?

Westmead Private, Westmead in their brand new maternity suite which opens in March 2019.
It's like a 5 star hotel, I'm so pumped!


6. Have you chosen a name?

We don't have a boy name yet, and we have nearly decided on a girl's first name.


7. Do you have any cravings?

Spicy food, asian food, fish tacos, Indian food and bao buns.
None of which I really eat funnily enough- except for the occasional homemade asian fusion dishes.


8. Are you going to get an epidural?

No thanks! I always aim for as natural a birth as possible. 

9. How do you think your daughter will adjust to having a new sibling?  
She is so excited to be a big sister! She kisses my tummy all the time and her fav book at the moment is "There's a House Inside My Mummy."


10. How do you feel about giving birth again?

I'm excited I guess. I know I'll hate the waiting game in the final few weeks, but I had a really good birth experience with my daughter....  even though it didn't remotely go to plan (read my birth story here) and we had some big hiccups.
​I can't wait to grow our little family and introduce our little bubba to her sister, and the world.
​

11. What are your favourite green beauty brands to use during pregnancy?

Black Chicken Remedies: 1. All natural deodorant  2. The skin complexion polish and
3. The nocturnalist night serum
For an even complexion: La Mav Organic BB cream (medium shade)
For added face hydration: Biologi, Bf Hydration body serum 
For sunscreen: Simple as That, SPF 30
For my belly and my daughter's skin too: Byron Baby macadamia oil
(I'll do another blog post about these and more later on)
