This weekend brought me to 24 weeks, ‘V Day’! Our little man is now viable, meaning if he was born early he would have a better chance of survival. He’s also making Mummy’s belly grow by the day! What have I to report since the last post? Well, I haven’t been very well over the weekend and just haven’t felt like doing much really. On Friday night I started off with a bit of a cough, by Saturday evening it had gotten gradually worse, and then through the early hours of Sunday morning I was waking every couple of …
World Prematurity Day
Today is World Prematurity Day, and I am honoured to be taking part in the blogging event along with Bloggers Unite & March Of Dimes. Today I’m going to be writing about a close friend whom some of my readers will be aware of. If you don’t already read her blog, I highly recommend doing so. Before I started thinking about TTC, and started using the Conception & Fertility boards of the forum I was a member of at the time, although I was aware of prematurity, I didn’t really ‘know’ anybody who had been through it. That was, until I started …
Consultant appointment
We had our first consultant appointment today, after being referred because of my BMI. Was quite a short appointment, and we didn’t actually see the consultant, but one of his staff.

23 weeks (and a bump pic)
Yesterday was 23 weeks! Nearly at ‘V Day’, next week… Not much to report I’m afraid after only posting 22 week update on Thursday! I was in quite an emotional teary state over the weekend though, I think partly this is because the miserable cold weather and early dark nights are getting me down, like they do other people; I don’t usually suffer too much but obviously more emotional and hormonal this year so it’s affecting me a bit more! Also, I’ve been having those ‘I’m going to be a rubbish Mummy and do everything wrong’ thoughts! I suppose it’s …
22 weeks
Well I have neglected you for a over a week, since last Tuesday, how awful of me! The Sunday just passed saw me entering my 22nd week of pregnancy! I’m afraid I haven’t really got much to report this week in regards to the pregnancy… Apart from the random, strange & scary dreams are back… Just a couple from this week – a crazy ghost woman invaded my dream and started flapping the duvet and was kicking my belly, woke up in tears with this one, was incredibly scary – of course in the dream husband slept through, and when …
