When I had my last scan, I was also booked in for my GTT at the same time. The week after that I received a letter with another appointment for my GTT, the day after the original. I’ve been meaning to cancel one of them ever since as I obviously don’t need 2, especially having to starve 2 days in a row! So I was glad when the midwife rang me today to cancel one, otherwise I would have still forgotten.
Today has also been a day of no motivation or energy.

Happy birthday to me! Hubby has been looking after me today, and he even made me my dinner this evening!
I had another gender dream last night. Now I’m not going to reveal the gender, but I did dream that baby latched on like a pro and breastfeeding was a complete success! I do hope that part comes true.

The ‘Berry’ Pregnancy Diaries – week 19
At 19 weeks, berry is the size of a mango.
Berry is now covered in vernix.
Many senses are developing, with the brain creating specialised areas for smell, taste, vision & touch.
Motor neurons are continuing to develop, allowing more controlled and conscious movement.
Berry may be able to hear voices by now.
The hair on their scalp is also starting to sprout.
If berry is a girl, her eggs contain primitive egg cells. If berry is a boy, the prostate will begin to develop.
Berry may start sleeping this week, possibly finding a favourite position!
