3 weeks and counting. An appointment with the consultant went well and everything seems completely normal now, except for my iron. I took MIL along with me to the consultants appointment as she is the only one who hasnt seen the baby yet. The scan showed that the baby's head has grown and shes in the right position etc. so all is good. The consultant is lovely and wants to see me in two weeks time. i'd rather it be in a delivery room than the average appointment but dont think boo is planning on shifting any time soon.
Have been having plenty of braxton hicks and just when i think 'ooh, this looks promising', it stops, meh. am having more tired days now which is really frustrating, spent all day on the sofa yesterday as i didnt have the energy to move, but probably because i've done Mias playroom out and swam half a mile. may have been a bit much in hindsight. after a restful day yesterday i do feel much better today, so am off for a swim this morning before the aqua zumba lot take over the swimming pool.
have started doing the research for my next masters essay, cant say its the most interesting of things and it seems like a real chore, but am aiming to get it at least mostly done before the baby arrives as i dont think my brain will function normally with sleep deprivation. Its hard to kick-start myself though, especially as we've managed to banjax the printer so making notes and highlighting sections is a little more difficult. But it seems a much better idea to try and get it done and out of the way before May.
visited my parents this week as they've been married 43 years this week, go parents! told mum that when the consultant measured my belly, it hadnt grown for two weeks. mothercame out with the lovely comment (as onlyl mothers do) saying,
'well its the only place that hasnt grown, your arms are bigger, your legs, face, everywhere!!!!!'
thanks mum!
