Hey all! Very quick update, baby boy arrived over the weekend after a very drawn out labour. We’re both well and home, just taking some time to recover and bond as a family ❤️

[aliciaking86]

I’ve been quiet for a while because there’s been a lot going on! The short version of the story is that I’m being induced a couple of weeks early. There’s no immediate concern about either of us but for various reasons my doctors want to go down that route. So this my last update at 38 weeks ❤️

[aliciaking86]

Could you upload more about your belly like how it feels to have the baby kick or about your cravings maybe?

I hope you like the video I just posted 😘 in terms of cravings, I haven’t really had anything specific this pregnancy except ICE! Literally just really cold ice water, loads of ice in cold drinks, iced tea etc. Even before this heatwave, but especially now 🥵

[aliciaking86]

These movements are getting so painful now!! This one is definitely running out of space

Time for belly measuring, at 35 weeks. It’s ridiculously hot and every part of me feels swollen and uncomfortable. I am currently 117cm, just over 46”

How much weight do you wish to gain? I love big pregnant women.

Honestly I’m not NOT trying to gain weight this pregnancy, but I’m already carry around an additional 8 kg or so from my previous 2 pregnancies being so close together too, and I really don’t want to be much heavier

[aliciaking86]

Would you be opposed to making some longer videos of your belly? you look incredible and i know i would enjoy them! I think everyone else would too

Absolutely not opposed and very happy to take requests 😘

[aliciaking86]

No update in a bit, everything going okay over there?

Hey lovely! Thank you so much as I got a few asks from a few people along these lines. Everything is fine I’m just SUPER busy with trying to finish work, parent 3 small children, and waddling my enormous preggo ass around in this heat 😘

[aliciaking86]

Are your babies more active with each pregnancy?

This is a great question! I don’t think I’ve particularly noticed a pattern but they’ve all been different. #3 in particular was back to back to me my whole pregnancy, and I felt his kicks very differently to the ones who were facing in towards my back

[aliciaking86]

It’s almost midnight here so I’m gonna go ahead and say this is 32 weeks 🤷‍♀️ some crazy movements tonight!! This one is super active. Peep the baby foot next to me from #3, I was getting kicked inside and out 😂

[aliciaking86]

Do you think this will be your biggest pregnancy yet 😍 p.s love the blog and the belly ! Thanks so much so sharing your journey!

Definitely the biggest! I’ll do a belly measurement check in this weekend 😘

[aliciaking86]

Do you still have your birthing ball for bouncing on? I don't think I've seen it since your last pregnancy.

Oh trust me that will be making an appearance at some point soon!!

[aliciaking86]

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you were having more than one baby in your belly. If yes how many?

I would love to have had the opportunity to carry multiples. For us it never happened, but that’s fine! I’ve still been lucky to carry my 4 babies one by one

[aliciaking86]

Just a very quick update as I’m conscious I haven’t been online much, still pregnant, 31 weeks, all going well but still feeling HUGE

[aliciaking86]

Are you expecting single baby or twins?

Just one!

Different angle bare bump pic ❤️ I saw the midwife this week and it’s definitely, objectively, a big bump - measuring in the 98th centile. 29 weeks now!

[aliciaking86]

Any chance we can get a bare bump pic?

I thought I’d shared plenty but haven’t so much this pregnancy I realise. I’m really feeling the stretch x
