Scan Day: He or She?

I had my 20 week scan today and baby is looking to be a healthy little bundle but he/she wasn't giving anything away and kept his/her legs crossed the whole time and even made the sonographer work hard getting all the measurements by being in awkward positions.

I came away disappointed as I wanted to know the sex of the baby and even the scan photos weren't very clear as you can't make much of the baby out just his/her spine, but I'm not sure the sonographer was much help anyway and not too friendly maybe because Ollie was with us causing trouble and making noise but what are you suppose to do, we had to take him with us.

As the evening has passed my disappointment has disappeared it is actually quite exciting not knowing the sex.
In my first pregnancy I had a surprise boy after being told I'd have a girl so I probably wouldn't have believed them much anyway.

Just another 135 days or so and my surprise will be here.

Baby No.2 Week 18 -20

My diary over the last weeks

Week 18: 07/08/12 - I think I've had a few flutters today from baby more than normal- last couple weeks had one or two but wasn't sure if it was baby or not but I'm pretty sure it must be today. 

I've been feeling so incredibly tired today well pretty much from week 17 but I thought it was down to intense concentration at work, but 4 days off and this morning I just wanted to sleep. 


Week 19: Most of the week I have been so tired and angry towards other people, but it was a tough week as I mentioned in my last post.

I'm finding I keep waking up in the night, I guess preparing me for those sleepless nights ahead.

20 weeks
Week 20: 19/08/12 - I felt proper movements this evening which makes me feel better as I know things are okay but it also makes it feel very real.
I have to go through all that pain in 20 weeks or so - scary.

21/08/12 - Look at my bump it's huge and it's becoming uncomfortable and heavy as are my boobs.

Can't wait for my scan on Thursday :)
