19 weeks...POPPED!

It's out there....there's no denying it....I don't even think the strategically placed scarf is hiding it much these days but because it's 'popped' I'm more proud of it (if that makes sense).

Less looking like I've eaten too many Tim Tams and more looking like I'm baking a baby.

The Scan yesterday was wonderful - they did a full check and everything is fine. The placenta however, is low which just means I'll have to go back for another detailed scan at 30 weeks or something. No big deal...supposedly the placenta can move up in the Uterus when the baby gets bigger...and if worse comes to worse, I'll just have to have a cesarean.

I'm quite relaxed about the different options for childbirth...

as long as my baby is healthy, I really don't mind which way it goes.

Oh...and we found out what Peanut is....but that's hush hush.

Items I'm getting for the bubba

The Safe n' Sound Meridian Car Seat

From newborns to 19 kilograms.

Saves forking out money for a baby capsule as well.

Bugaboo Cameleon in Denim

my "I can't wait" item

TasmanEco - Tuscany cot

Quality timber and design, robust, safe, converts to

junior bed or little sofa and more importantly...affordable.

18 weeks...

I've had some bleeding again over the last few days so had to go in to see the OB-GYN to make sure everything was ok. It looks like i might have a low lying placenta - which is really no big deal but just needs to be monitored.

The 18-20 week scan that was scheduled for next week has been pushed forward to tomorrow at 2pm - I'm really excited about it. Everytime I get the opportunity to see what it's up to I get lit up. We're also finding out what sex the baby is tomorrow. Then I can really start the 'nesting'...finish off the nursery and start making some clothes for bubba.

16 weeks...

15 weeks...

Noticed a HUGE change in how big I'm getting in the last day or so.....check it out....mamma mia!!

14 weeks...

Nothing much to report on over the last week or so....just getting bigger and my appetite is starting to increase a little. Getting the occasional dry 'heave' from time to time....really random and annoying + scary.
