Hi all :wave:
Sorry to hear about your grandfather Kellen but as someone else said, it's very magical that the circle of life happens right before your eyes and I'm sure if he knew that he had nothing to do with your baby getting to v day, he would have chosen to play that part anyway xxxx
I'm ok wamommy, thanks xx just had a hard week emotionally. We went to see the specialist for an in depth scan this week to see what the outlook of baby's feet is. They confirmed that there is a problem. Although it's positive news in that the other tests don't seem to point to any of the serious disabilities or brain related conditions, so he thinks that it could just mean that she requires a bit of physio or maybe a small operation straight after birth. He seems to think the outlook is very good and that although she might not be an Olympic athlete, she should be able to run around in the playground
We will have a few more follow up scans, a physio appointment and some counselling sessions to help us deal with any emotions.
It's all fine and we are fine and dealing with it quite well, it's just emotionally draining. We've not told people in real life yet, apart from close family as it's just easier to not have to update about 50 people every time we have an appointment. Also, I feel very pressured about other people's expectations, so we are being a bit selfish and keeping it to ourselves at the moment.
I'm still here and still checking in just haven't had lots to say as I've been quite tired.
We are going to decorate the nursery next week! Very excited xx
