Soooo my scan went great yesterday; the feeling you get when you see your baby for the first time happy healthy and bouncing around is just indescribable! It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen and SUCH a relief! My husband and I are just so happy! He couldn't believe his eyes...it must be one thing to know your wife is pregnant and another thing entirely to actually see the little life growing inside her!
I know I was so stressed yesterday morning, there seems to be a million and one things to worry about but I guess you just have to take it as it comes and trust that your body knows what it's doing right? Believe me I tried to remember that when I got up thismorning to make toast and ended up throwing up all over myself and the floor between the kitchen and the bathroom. The first 12 weeks I had constant nausea and had plenty of warning before I needed to make a bathroom or bucket dash.. I am 13 weeks + 1 today and hey! No more warning system! It just 'happens' suddenly. It isn't making me keen to leave the house or be out of arms reach of my bucket ever again I can tell you!
Meet our little wiggle bean! Sucking its thumb, scratching its belly, legs crossed... seems pretty cozy in there! Not fussed at all that mummy was wiping her own sick off the bathroom doorknob. It will all be worth it in the end :o)
I'm so excited for you!!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Cate :) I'm still a little worried about the risk of Downs (which is why we had the scan) but we will find out at our next OBS appointment. Hopefully all will be well!
DeleteLook at that precious little baby. How thrilling for you and hubby. I hope you pass that morning sickness phase soon. It sounds a little inconvenient, though if everything is perfect with baby, I suppose inconvenience is happily accepted :)
ReplyDeletecongratulations to you both xox
