Today I’m wearing black, to find out why read this article in today’s The Herald…

Dark day for freedom

Dark day for freedom
Protests mount ahead of vote on secrecy bill today. Almost 14 years ago to the day, former president Nelson Mandela told journalists press freedom would never be under threat in South Africa as ” long as the ANC is the majority party”. The ANC intent on passing its feared Protection of State Information Bill through the National Assembly today.

This week and the baba

It’s my 12th week of pregnancy and according to babyzone.com the baby should be looking like this:

12 Weeks Pregnant: Pregnant at Work
The end of the first trimester marks an important step for your baby-to-be. All of her major body systems are in place. In her digestive system, her small intestine is no longer entwined with the umbilical cord, but instead is tucked neatly within the abdomen. Her nervous system continues to develop, and her brain’s structure is fully formed. Many of her organs are starting to work on their own, too. For instance, her thyroid begins to secrete hormones. In your 13th week of pregnancy, she’s no longer considered an embryo, but instead graduates into a fetus. She’s already looking more and more like the baby you’re probably imagining—she even has tiny fingernails.

The first trimester is over in a few days which means we out of the main danger zone 🙂 and I believe it means my extreme tiredness will be a thing of the past soon. WHOOP WHOOP! its not over yet so i need a nap.
I always need a nap, except at night when I cant sleep.
I’m showing a lil baby bump now! I like this because I’m finally starting to look pregnant and not just wayyy too big for my clothes (which I am)

HAVE A GREAT WEEK ALL!
