I woke up with Ronnie kicking again but I was getting used to it by now.
It still felt strange, definitely but it was feeling a little more comfortable with it.
Phil had finally let me off of bed-rest and tomorrow I started work again even though I was only going to have like a week there before I needed to start maternity leave.
My scar was clearing up and closing up as-well so the pain had also stopped so yep was again in the clear.
Sometimes it stinged when the shower water hit it but it wasn't complete agony so I was alright.
I jumped in the shower and slightly winced as the water first hit it but afterwards I was fine.
Phil had gone out with Jack and Riyad for drinks at a local pub so I invited over an old friend for a chill movie night in.
It was Joey and I hadn't seen her since my baby shower and now I'm 7 months!! We were now in December so she was gonna help me choose Phil's presents for Christmas.
We were gonna exchange them now as we weren't gonna see each other since after Christmas for our next brand deal.
We went on some clothes sites and I ordered him some Ralph Lauren tops and some nice new shoes then was stuck what to get him. But I saw a really amazing mens bracelet thing and knew Phil would love it and then just ordered him his favourite aftershave.
They all were gonna arrive in the next week or two so I needed to make sure he couldn't find them. I also got him a picture thing that said New dad on the front and it was so cute.
Me and Joey got each other's presents to give to each other. She insisted I opened mine first.
"Mothers first," she said and smiled.
"Oh shut up," I said and laughed.
She got me some new makeup that I haven't tried some Louis Vuitton heels and a little baby dressing gown saying mummy's boy on the back.
I hugged her then gave her the presents I bought for her. I bought her matching bracelets with me, some new makeup and Victoria secret pjs.

Joey decided she wanted to head home because she missed her dog and her boyfriend, Lucas. We finished the movie and then I gave her a hug and then she left.
After she had gone, I craved another hot chocolate, this was currently my biggest craving I had ever gotten, so I struggled to pull myself up and made one.
I went to Phil's coffee machine and just put a hot chocolate pod in instead of a caffeine one. My eyes were almost glued together I was that tired, you know long day when little one won't stop kicking you!
Then as I went to grab some biscuits, my phone started ringing. I groaned as my phone was on the other side of the room, but I half-waddled to reach it. It was Bukayo.
I frowned, wondering why he would be calling at this time, considering he's normally in bed for training the next day by now.
I shrugged it off and answered it. I put the phone on speaker and on the side of the machine so I could finish making my hot chocolate.

N: Hey Bukayo, how are you?
B: Can I come over?
N: Ye it's just me, Phil's gone out with city lads.
B: Good, I really need to talk to you.
N: Is everything ok?
B: I'll explain soon
N: Alr ok see you soon• • •
He ended the call abruptly and I wandered over back to the sofa and sat down with my digestives and hot chocolate. I wondered what was wrong with him and hoped it wasn't anything serious.
After about 20 minutes, he walked in holding a McDonald's bag and I grinned at him. I saw a single tear drop from his face and his expression didn't give the impression he was happy.
I noticed quickly and patted for him to sit down next to me on the sofa. He did and slouched back and out his face in his hands.
"Natalie," he said and sat up and looked down hard at the floor. "Amelie cheated on me," he muttered quietly under his breath.
My jaw almost dropped. My heart almost stopped . She did what? "Amelie did what?" I repeated out loud. Hoping to god that she didn't do that.
"Cheated." He said it with no expression. Not even anger. Pure sadness i feel. For Bukayo. That word knocked me sick. I pulled him int a hug as he let out a low cry.

It was getting later and later and I was literally falling asleep.
I messaged Phil and told him what happened and he said he'd be home soon but until then to put Bukayo in the spare bedroom: not Sasha and Jacks their room was too messy. Obviously it is Jack in there.
I put the tele on for him and made him a cup of tea and went to my room and left Amelie a voicemail, not a nice one. I put on my tele and put on a caramel and coconut flavoured candle on before bed. Or at least before Phil came in.
