Time going by...

Well, it is 17 weeks and all is well. The cramping has continued and now my back has chimed in - so much so that I am going to have to go and see my osteopath. The dizziness is still here as well but other than that, all is very, very excellent! My scan on Friday was a good one and thankfully the cervix has measured exactly the same as it did last week - yay. I also asked if JourneyBabyBoy had enough room as it is something that I am continually wondering about because of my halfa uterus and the sonographer said yes, he has plenty of room.
Lots to do this week in the lead up to Easter. I am working Monday, Tuesday and Thursday this week and Wednesday I am going to get the hedge plants to border our courtyard to start the greening process. I have a lot planned over Easter as well, Friday, JourneyMan and I are going to work in the garden, paint our new front door and get our hedge plants in - yay. Saturday, I am off to the football (Australian Rules football!), Sunday we are having lunch with my sister as well as finishing dyeing some curtains for our bedroom and then on Monday I am taking my bestie out for a birthday treat day, we are having manicures and pedicures, then a luxury afternoon tea - I can't wait, we haven't spent that much time together recently so a day of chatting and catching up is just what the doctor ordered!
I sometimes feel like this whole pregnancy is a bit surreal, even though I get to see JBB every Friday. It is quite a wonderful time and we are being spoilt with so many presents already from my Mum (she made us up a little package to have under the change table), my Aunty has just given us some clothes as well as blankets and bibs and JourneyMan's best mate's wife has just given us some clothes for JBB as well - he is obviously the most spoilt child already!!

  1. well you are almost at the half way mark - I am so pleased for you that the cramping ended up not being anything - could you be getting extra cramping because of your half uterus (ie it needs to stretch more???)

  6. Hooray that JBB has plenty of room. I was thinking about you two this weekend. I am so glad things are going so well.

    What a fantastic week ahead of you. It is only a 4-day workweek for me, so I am looking forward to the extra day with Baby Bean.

    Isn't it so much fun to start collecting baby things? I always used to look at the onesies and realize my daughter would be in them one day and how weird that thought was. Breathe it all in!
