Sunday 23rd June – 5w Revealed to the world via little man. So many congratulations! I’m still obviously nervous & scared, but those feelings are getting easier to deal with. I have a few bump buddies too, some bloggers, some online forum buddies, and some real life friends. Monday 24th June – 5w 1d Had another weird pregnancy dream last night. To cut a long dream short, we had parrots who lived in our wardrobe and ate all my clothes. Yeah. They get weirder… Tuesday 25th June – 5w 2d I swear I’m doing this pregnancy backwards this time!

The ‘Berry’ Pregnancy Diaries
By now you will probably have seen ‘the announcement’ – if not, you can find it here! So first things first, how far along am I? Only around 5 weeks. Why have I revealed it so early? Because as we know, telling people early or not does not effect the outcome of pregnancy. And, if the worst was to happen again, the support received is paramount to coping, and I know I can receive a lot of support from my friends and online community. Going back to the beginning. After our miscarriage, although our pregnancy was unexpected, we both decided …
Diary of a (short) 2nd pregnancy – weeks 4 to 10
I started writing this when I got my BFP, with the intent to publish it after 12 weeks when we had had our scan. Obviously we didn’t get that far, but I would like to publish it anyway. *Contains very sensitive content, and TMI at points so only read on if you wish.

By today though my AF was a couple of days late, going by average cycle lengths since J. We had …
39 weeks
I made it to 39 weeks. To be honest, I thought I would, as I was only 1/5 engaged at my 38 week appointment (I was a little confused to be honest, as both the midwife and student said 4/5 engaged when they were having a feel, but in my notes it said 4/5p.!). Anyway, I was still 1/5 engaged on Wednesday when I went to the hospital, but that was only 2 days apart so not too bothered about that. I wish I personally knew a midwife so I could know if he was any more engaged! Though it’s …
33 weeks
Sorry I’ve been a bit AWOL since Wednesday, didn’t realise it was that long! So anyway, I was 33 weeks pregnant on Sunday, that’s just another 7 weeks to go… We are practically all sorted for his arrival now, just awaiting on his wheels getting here, hopefully sometime this week! Yesterday I was continuing with packing my hospital bag, which made it seem all the more real too… We have his coming home outfit, apart from his hat which mother-in-law is just finishing off knitting, I will post a photo when it’s done, going to be a cracker! Last night …
