Midwife, MAT B1, & Mat Leave

Oooo! Feeling organised today! Had my 25 week midwife apt today (a week & a day early for a change coz of Christmas). Smudge is fine! Had a good listen to the heart beat. My BP seems to be back to normal too. I also picked up my MAT B1 form (late coz I was at RLI for my last apt, not the with the middy) sooooo that meant I could officially tell work - as if they dont all already know - and book my mat leave! I am working until Fri 30th March, and returning the first week of 2013. That sounds so far away at the moment! 2013....

From now on I'm being seen every 2 weeks!!! I cant believe we've got to this stage already! 16 weeks to go IF I'm allowed to go full term!

Meantime though my boys are sick. Jack spent 2 nights in bed with us over the weekend - totally unheard of! He was sick Sunday night as well which freaked him out. Tom was sick tonight too but seems to have got over it quicker, and since Jack is on the mend I'm hoping both will be ok by Christmas Eve.

Recipe: Pigsty Pie

This is one that we made up, although we are far from the first or only people to make a pie using pork or pork mince and call it a Pigsty Pie. So let's just say that this is our version of it. It smells great and reminds me of stuffing at Christmas, making it feel much more "naughty" than it is! This serves four people and it a nice 9 points per serving. You will need these for the mash: 400g potatoes 400g sweet potatoes 4-5 good sized carrots Salt Pepper Nutmeg Simply chop the roots, boil in salted water until tender, and mash! Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. The pie filling: 10 sprays low fat cooking spray (e.g. 1 cal) 1/2 lb lean pork mince 2 onions, finely chopped 3 apples, diced 1 leek, chopped 5-6 big mushrooms 2 tbs plain flour 1 tsp sage 1 tsp parsley Salt Pepper 1 vegetable stock cube 1/2 hot water 2 tsp English mustard Fry the onions in the cooking spray until they start to soften, add the mince. Once the meat starts to colour add the apple, leek and mush
