Hello ladies, hope you had a fab weekend!
Annaki - yay happy plum day! I bet you can't wait to tell everyone. We didn't do anything special or have anything planned, I just sort of waited for something to come up so I could get it into conversation haha. I felt surprisingly awkward! I told my parents on my birthday and they'd got me a really slushy card (most unlike them) which said something about the adventure of having a child. I said 'On that note, we've got a bit of news...' and then just blurted it out! With MIL we Skyped her for the first time and said 'We thought you ought to get your head round Skype so you can see this grandchild that's on the way'. It took aaaages for her to get it
Then I just phoned round everyone else after our 12 week scan; we'd just moved house so I made out I was just getting in touch to say it had all gone well and stuff and took them rather by surprise
Keep us updated!
Banana - Yay Blueberry day! Less exciting news about the puking though
I've lived on flavoured fizzy water the whole time I've been pregnant. I don't drink plain water at all and the midwife says that's fine. I like Sainsbury's lemon and lime flavour and it's 4 bottles for £2 or something.
Trying - your weekend sounds lovely! I want a doggy sooooo bad. What have you got?
Luvbug - I can't wait to see the results of your crafty weekend!
Snuffles - not long 'til your appointment now - I'm glad things are looking better
Kismet and Cake - yep the fruit ticker is so much more exciting than I'd anticipated too. You'll have your little apple seeds on the way soon too, I'm sure of it
AFM - I'm a squash! I was a bloody eggplant for 3 weeks so really excited to change. Also now it's October I will officially be full term and baby could well arrive
next month. Eeeek! I know it's unlikely but I arrived at 37 weeks and at least when it comes to planning/buying stuff you have to assume that's when it'll all happen. I absolutely can't wait. According to my book baby is around 3lb now which I find particularly reassuring - I have twin cousins who were born a couple of years ago slightly premature at just over 3lb each and they were absolutely fine - no problems whatsoever - so 3lb has been like a goal in my head for that reason. I'm so excited!
