Week 21

Heel to crown you are each about 27cm.

You now start to take in tiny amounts of sugar via the amniotic fluid you swallow rather than relying just on the placenta. Vernix on your skin is now thick and waxy to ease your delivery.

An update on Mummy:

I can feel you kick much more now. 🙂

Had a bit of a scare on Sunday. Mummy was getting ready for bed and a great evening at church when she noticed a bit of a bleed and so we went to St Mary’s hospital to be checked over. Very worried but Daddy was reassuring. Mummy was checked over and all was ok inside! 🙂  very late night with not much sleep!

Not enjoying the heat and humidity. Eating lots of sun dried tomatoes, feta /goats cheese and avocado salads.

After visiting charity shops Mummy so excited about the cute outfits she bought for you and the ‘Guess how much I love you?’ soft baby book.

Mummy had a sore back, lots of pressure and pulling in tummy.

Received a gift of money from a friend – so lovely – it means we can get you car seats! 🙂

Me and you… What have we been doing this week?

Though we didn’t sleep until 5am on the morning after the scare, Mummy and Daddy and you two travelled in the afternoon to surprise Nanny and Grandpa. They were so pleased to see us. We spent that bank holiday evening with them.

We told them your names – Chloe and Grace! then later we told Aunty M and Aunty Bom Bom and Grandma.

When we had the 20 weeks scan, mummy had the internal scan too which was all fine.

Your new baby bath arrived- so cute:-)
