About Me

My photo
For five years I went through hell and back to become a Mummy! I had three miscarriages from natural pregnancies, five IUI attempts, five IVF attempts, and three operations to remove endometriosis, a polyp and a fibroid. I have been with my 'almost perfect' Husband since 2003. We married in 2009 on Valentine's Day and we are extremely happy together. I decided to start a blog because I needed to write down my thoughts and feelings to show myself and others how I was never going to give up until we got our forever baby.

Since having my baby, I'm inspired to create: Baby Blankets by Me & Mum

2013 Year of the Baby

This year I am going to be a Mummy, it is so exciting! I am 25 weeks pregnant today - just 15 weeks to go!

Here are my latest bump pics:

We have also made our most exciting purchase - the pram! We looked at lots but I was drawn to this Silvercross Linear Freeway in Charcoal. In the shop we practised putting the body on and off the chassis, changing it into forward and backward facing pushchair mode, and fitting and removing the car seat. I also treated myself to the matching changing bag.

 

As of today I have lots of countdowns on my phone:
  • 10 days until birthing pool lesson
  • 14 days until 3rd trimester (if it is when you reach 27 weeks, as there seems to be conflicting views?)
  • 22 days until my 28 week midwife appointment
  • 31 days until the next scan and consultant appointment
  • 80 days until my last day at work
  • 105 days until Baby's due date

We will also confirm the date for our private 3D scan tomorrow! It's all soooooo exciting!
