Hello Baby!
Hi there wonderful people!
I know a lot of you have been wondering what I’ve been up to recently, and a couple have made some pretty accurate guesses! Well, on the very day after I wrote to all of you about taking a breaking and feeling rather tired etc etc I was feeling so ill and out of it that my brain finally kicked in and all the clues fell in place… extreme tiredness, queeziness, lack of appetite, serious amount of bloating, inability to cook a meal without the urge to hurl… no idea what I’m talking about?? Well turns out…
I’m Pregnant!!
That’s right! There’ll be another wonderful little addition to the Nielsen household next year! I’m due March 1st and we are so excited! We’d been hoping for another, but I’d been trying to be self controlled and not take pregnancy tests every day.
Unfortunately I have been super duper unbearably morning sick. Thankfully Bunny is a very good girl and very easy to look after and Hubby is a trooper and has been looking after us so wonderfully (midnight trips to the supermarket, cooking all the meals, cleaning the house, laundry – what a guy!). So I’ve been able to relax and just cope with the sickness. Thankfully it’s starting to subside, and I’m hoping I’ll be right as rain soon.
Of course that means there’s been a complete and total lack of sewing. But also means my to do list has changed a little, hehe. I was pregnant over summer with Bunny, so all of my maternity clothing is cute little dresses, sleeveless tops and shorts/skirts galore. Not exactly appropriate for an Iowan winter. So I’m planning on making a few winter friendly tops and maybe altering a few pants to make them maternity.
Am hoping to keep you all updated on my maternity sewing as I get my sewing mojo back and the morning sickness subsides. I won’t be able to leave the sewing too long though, as my bump has appeared much earlier than it did with Bunny. I’m only 13 weeks and I haven’t been able to wear regular pants for weeks. Yikes!
So anyway, heres hoping you guys enjoying watching me get GIGANTIC! hehehe

Congratulations!!!!! I see lots of baby sewing in your future :)
Awww congrats! What wonderful news.
Hope the morning sickness subsides soon.
Congrats!!! You look like such a wonderful mom to Bunny, I’m sure you’ll do a great job 2nd time around. Goodluck with the next few months and with the sewing! Looking forward to some great maternity inspiration (we’re currently trying to conceive).
PS – your babybump looks so cute!
CONGRATS!!!!! Soooo cute. It almost makes me clucky for another one…….almost :) Yay for you guys.
Congratulations! I hope the morning sickness subsides soon.
Congratulations, Meg!!! I hope you feel better soon!
Congratulations! It’s good to have you back in the blogosphere!
My hubby and I have talked about starting a family, and when we do I hope to make or refashion some clothes for myself. You will be such a huge inspiration and resource when it happens for us!
Oh Congratulations! I’ve missed you. So glad you’re back and anxious to see what you create!
Congratulations!! I hope the morning sickness subsides for you. I was sick pretty much my whole pg with my last, and Jolly Ranchers totally saved me. Something about sucking on the sour/sweet candy calmed my stomach. Of course, I’ll never be able to eat another Jolly Rancher as long as I live, but it was worth it.
I look forward to your creativity with your maternity wardrobe!!
This is so weird, I was just thinking about this blog this morning and wishing it would come back, because my partner is pregnant (due March 8!), and I’m not sure what to sew first! :) Thank goodness you’re back, and congratulations!!!!!
Congratulations! I’m due in early Februrary, how exciting! I actually found your blog from wardroberefashion.net, and I love your work! I’m actually signing up myself for the September round!
Congratulations! I hope you’ll feel better again soon and then have a wonderful pregnancy. Can’t wait to see what you will be making for this little one!
It’s wonderful! Congratulations!!
Congrats!

Thanks for all of the congrats and kind words ladies, its such an exciting time! Looks like I’ve also got a couple of preggers partners in crime out there, congrats to all of you as well! xoxo
I have had 3 babies and 9 months of morning sickness all day long…. 27 months total of feeling yucky. With my last baby I found drinking a nettles infusion (tea) all day long really helped and many days was the only thing I could keep down. When the going got really tough, this preggy drank Ensure to survive. ; )
Yay you’re back here. I hadn’t checked for a while and finally I did today! talk to ya soon. Liking the new format too! Will you make up your mind girl?!! :P haha
Oh how exciting! Congratulations!
Oh my God!

Congratulations! Best wishes, and hope you’re feeling better soon =)
congratulations meg!
