I made it! Twelve weeks. Phew! Now I just have to get past the NT scan next Friday. For those of you not sure what an NT scan is, NT is short for Neucal Translucency. It's where they measure the fold in the back of bub's neck and use the results of a blood test etc (not exactly sure how they figure it out) to determine the risk of downs syndrome and other chromasomal disorders. I'm not nervous about the results. I'm more just nervous about the scan itself. I just won't be able to breath a sigh of relief till I see that heartbeat on the screen. But, like I keep telling myself, there's no reason this pregnancy shouldn't go perfectly. I just keep telling myself that and it somehow puts my mind at ease. Well, for a little while. I just always have so much going through my head. So much to worry about. I really need to stop it. I haven't bought any baby stuff yet either. I'm going to wait this time. Not that I need anything, because I don't really. I still have all the stuff from my first pregnancy. There are really only a few things that I don't have. Pram, nappies, creams, lotions etc, breast pads, bla bla bla. Just little things. My Mum want's to buy my pram, and she's also making the nappies for me, so I don't have to worry about those. And the rest is easy.
I actually started looking at nursery ideas the other day too. There are some gorgeous one's out there, but also some way too over the top. I have some simple ideas. I'm not allowed to paint so hubby has volunteered to do it. Hey, who am I to argue:P He can go for it. He has to move his computer to the other end of the house to the spare room first. So we have to get a smaller computer desk. ugh. Always something. But I'm not having bub down there when he or she could be straight across the hall from us. So, out goes hubby's precious computer. He doesn't mind. It's just one of those things that has to be done. Among many others.
Well here's a piccy of my bump at three months. Hehehe. It's mostly me though. But I look like I'm six months already.
Till next time
Yay!! You look gorgeous ;)
