You are 3.5 cm. A grape🍇
You can move. You have hair follicles and a definite nose and ears. You have fingerprints!
Father’s Day- Daddy is so happy to be your Dad!! 😊
An update on mummy:
Another week – what a milestone!
Working from home again as lots of sickness and nausea. Managed a walk in the park after the rain 😅
Apprehensive, tired, gassy.
Thursday I was so tired and had a headache so I took time off. Work co-manager and line manager are very supportive and very pleased about you in my tummy.
Trying different ways to deal with sickness: mashed potato (especially bubble and squeak) seems to be good for us!! A glass of milk and 2 chocolate chip cookies worked for us for a few mornings. Carrying a bag round with me in case.
Finding it hard to keep you a secret precious baby. People wonder why I am poorly. Can’t wait to tell more people soon.
You are tiny but my uterus is huge it seems.
Enjoying my new bra that nanny helped me choose. Lots of shoulder pain. A tad worried but it soon went away. Cherishing each day despite feeling sick ❤️
Cravings – guacamole, baked beans, mashed potato..
Me and you… What did we do this week?
Friday mummy and daddy and you in my tummy went to our first appointment with the midwife. Queen Charlotte’s hospital is just off the A40 and we didn’t realise it is right next door to Hammersmith hospital which we visited over a year ago for an IVF info eve. It’s in a lovely area next to a park, although interestingly next to a big prison.
Lots of pregnant mummies in a hot waiting room. Saw a midwife called Sarah and her student Robyn. Daddy had back pain and a sore throat 😞
Sarah went through medical history And told us what appointments we need over the next 6 and half months. Very excited that we will get to see you on a scan on 5th July! The 16 week appointment would be on mummy and daddy’s 10th wedding anniversary so I changed it to 1st August instead.
Urine sample was fine for diabetes and antibodies. Had blood tests. Sarah said I should see my GP about anti sickness tablets as the sickness is affecting normal life!
Ate a jacket potato at master chef cafe. Some friends announced they had a baby boy. Our other friends have only 6 weeks to their little boy!
Mummy’s pet mice are growing and being naughty (Blueberry, Matilda, Pipsqueak and Minnie).
