Month 7 : 31+ weeks

Looks like, this month went pretty fast...Maybe because of the Holidays Season!
There was some up and down for me with always something to learn from!
I would say pretty emotional and spiritual lessons!
Baby is still moving a lot and I feel he changed position and have his head down now; so sometimes it seems that I am not big anymore and people think I am only few months pregnant!.
Few days later he moved again and take all the space he could to show that I am pretty big!.

We went to the 'big' city (50min drive) to buy some clothes, a little bed and some accessories for the baby...

It feels a bit weird to kind of start over with baby stuff!
We don't want to buy too much as we might have done for our first kids! ...
So each time the question is: Do we really need it!.
Our ideas and point of view on different topic have changed a lot (about labor, breastfeeding, clothing, toys, natural hygiene etc...) It's very interesting for me as it was my field of studies and work! (I was a nursery nurse working in a maternity clinic while I was living in France).

 I started to read few other books this month and one of them really got my attention:
Diaper free from Ingrid Bauer.

The concept is really interesting and make sense to me...so I'll see if I can give it a try!

If any of you experienced it...please share!

I am glad to be aware and out of this consumerism society! (while using what helped me for good purpose).

On the food side, I am doing what I would call intuitive eating: Before I ate anything I am tuning in and see what my body needs and what I would really enjoy eating; Lately I ate some steamed and boiled veggies like cauliflower, green beans, beets, potatoes that I put into a salad and I still have 2 to 3 juices a day and I feel that I really need it.

Yesterday I was inspired and I made an Asian salad with marinated mushrooms, carrots and zucchinis!

Sometimes I think of all my favorite restaurants and dishes while I was in Canada and I wonder if I would still like them...

I love the local dragon fruit (also called Pitaya or pitahaya) that is in season and I have one every morning with a juice.

Otherwise I try to take it easy to be able to bring this pregnancy to its due date without trouble...

So I am working on accepting to be served and helped (and that's not an easy task for me!).

It's hard to find a comfortable place with this big belly and my favorite one is the hammock!
I am bless to be able to enjoy it!

Thank you for stopping by and comments are always welcome!....
