Well I think I worked out why my doctors dates are different to mine (besides me giving her the wrong date!) She must've worked out the EDD on a 32 day cycle instead of 28 because I remember her asking how long my cycles were. So I think that's why she came back with the 30th, not the 27th.
Anyhoo, morning sickness is starting to kick in - albeit a bit early for me. I didn't start getting sick with Ella until I was 8-9weeks. I remember because people kept asking whether I had morning sickness and I was proud to say "nope!"...until it kicked in!
It isn't too bad this time around (yet) so I can't complain. I just feel very seedy and nauseas but haven't felt the need to throw up (yet!) so I'm taking that as a blessing!
However, I do welcome morning sickness. Not only does it start to confirm for me, the fact that I am actually finally pregnant, but I also remember reading somewhere during my last pregnancy, that MS is actually natures little tradeoff, and women who experience it are less likely to miscarry. So I'm happy to suffer during my first trimester if it means a healthy bub!
So my ultrasound is on Friday at 9am. I have to drink the dreaded 1 litre of water before 8am and then take Ella to physio at 8.30am. I really hope she settles down a bit. I took her the other day and she still screams and cries when we get there. It's sad that she already associates hospitals with not-nice experienes. It breaks my heart when she clings to me, begging me not to make her do what we're asking of her....I question whether it is all worth it sometimes.
Anyway, that's about it from me. Thought I'd better update this thing seeing as it seems to be neglected nowdays. Maybe I should re-name it as it is no longer our TTC journal, but our 2nd Pregnancy journal!
What started out as a TTC blog has now turned into a wonderful journey of motherhood. This is my story, a million times different to anyone elses but yet similar all the same.
