This weekend saw me reaching 25 weeks… 15 weeks to go, eek! It really is true when people say how fast it goes…

I really haven’t much to report from the last week, except that I ‘kind of’ took Baby G on his first train journey. At the same time I also found out being pregnant, hot, and going backwards on a train don’t mix… I lost count of the number of times I felt sick… I went to visit a friend in Manchester and had a lovely time with her & her little man.


Today I had my routine 25 week midwife appointment. Did the routine urine test, this was fine; routine blood pressure check, also fine. Then we got to listen to little mans little heartbeat again, it never fails to amaze me! The midwife also measured my bump, which I’ve been worrying about the size of lately, but the fundal height measurement was 25cm which she assured me was good and baby is growing well! She also gave me information on ante-natal classes and a hospital tour, which makes it seem all the closer to little man arriving!


I don’t have to go back now until after Xmas and the New Year at 31 weeks, as I’m at the hospital for my GTT at 28 weeks and she said they should take my bloods then, and I have to go for the results of my GTT a few days after, so she said there was not much point in having two appointments in the same week.
