The scan went well though and bubs is fine
DH can feel bubs move now too.
I've been ill again though and currently have a two day sinus headache which is making me grumpy :cool: A big bunch of flowers from DH cheered me up for a bit
Had a bit of excitment getting to the hospital as we got rear-ended by another car :eek: The damage is hardly noticeable but the quote for repair was +£600 *faint* (more than the car is worth). As we're getting rid of it next month anyway DH decided to settle with the other driver directy and not get the insurance involved.
We're off on holiday in two weeks :T so the poor bank is taking a beating as there's spending money to find and we both need a few essentials to wear.Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck

Oh, I love the Lakes Radish
My parents go for a week or two every year and we tend to 'visit' them for a weekend while they're there. I come back twice the size because we walk from cream tea to cream tea and back again :rotfl:
Am feeling back to normal again :j
Had a lazy Sunday round the parents and picked up a hand-woven wicker crib/moses basket that has been lent to us by a family friendpeople are so nice sometimes
Its about twice the size I thought it would be and we need to get a mattress and fabric to cover the sides. She'd also included a book about healthy eating in pregnancy which I haven't looked at yet
Have actually been quite surprised at the number of people who have warned me not to put too much on as its hard to get back to normal afterwards....????...and they say you should be relaxed as possible :rotfl:I guess it shows how image conscious everything is now but I personally plan to worry about my weight after I've got used to having a baby first (best laid plans and all that...)
Found three bottles of sun cream for our holiday so that's one thing off our list and the aim is to pack as light as possible. I must, must go through my exisiting clothes to see what I've got!Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck
