Chit Chat about this n that........

So, Christmas is out of the way....finally!! We had a quite a nice time actually. Visitied the inlaws xmas morning and my folks in the evening. Had dinner at home, just the three of us....which was nice. The run up to the big day was hectic to say the least. We seemed to run from one shop to the next trying to buy last minute pressies and food to cover us for the xmas period. It was all worth it in the end though.

Today we took my son to the museum, to see the dinosaurs. Well, the queues were huge and we never got in to actually see the exhibition itself (although we did see it a few months ago), but we did see a couple that were hanging around!! We managed to see some of the other exhibitions, which my son enjoyed, and we also had a picnic, which was lovely, apart from a family who rudely sat at our table without asking us first. Don't you just find that so annoying! We don't mind sharing , but at least have the decency to ask first!!

So, it's absolutely freezing at the moment, and as such, we're restricited on what we can do. We're hoping to take the boy to the park so we can try out the new kite that we bought. We'll have to see what happens. We have another scan (wellbeing) on Friday. Hopefully, all will be well. Will check in then, hopefully with good news.

Happy New Year to All xx

Quick update......

So, I had yet another appointment on Friday with my obstetrician. She's very happy with progress so far. My BP is normal and the bloods were fine....which I'm relieved about!! So now I wait for my next scan, which will be on 2 Jan. Apparently, there isn't a clinic on that day, but they're going to come in especially for me!! Aren't I special!!

Today I went christmas shopping. WHAT A NIGHTMARE!! I managed to get most of the pressies I wanted to get, still got a couple left though!! And on top of that, I need to get food in. It's never ending!! Still, will be nice when ti's all done, eh?? At least the most important people are sorted!!

Well, that's all I've got to report for now. Just want to say merry christmas to everyone, and have a fabulous new year!!

12 week scan......


Just to update you, I had my 12 week scan yesterday. Everything went well. Bubs is now 57.5mm long and is doing fine so far. I'm going to be scanned again in 4 weeks time by the fetal medicine guy, so I'll be able to give an update on baby's progress then.

As far as I go, I'm still feeling pretty sick and tired! I thought this was supposed to have stopped by now! I'm not going to complain too much, because this can only be good, but it's a pregnant woman's perogative to complain every now and again!! And to top it all off, I think I'm getting a cold...great :(
Thank God, I'm on annual leave from Friday for 2 weeks for xmas. Still got lots to do, but the boy is sorted, which is most important!! Got the tree and the decorations up, so we're getting into the spirit of things. I think this xmas is going to be hard without our daughter, but we need to keep our spirits up, if only for our son's sake.
Anyway, as much doesn't really happen in my life (!), I'll try and make another update in a few days time or so.
Merry xmas to all
