gratefulforhelp's austerity measures

Due mid feb, i'm 29 weeks today, not had 28 week bloods yet so i was supposed to be getting bloods done and the usual wee test, bp check and booked in to an xray about 35 weeks to check state of pelvis and a growth scan for baby. DD2 was 8lb3 which sounds a decent weight until you realise she was a 37 week induction for pre eclampsia and hadn't grown in a week.

Just under 6 weeks ahead of me then. I don't suppose it will hurt if you don't see the m/w for a while? I have to have a growth scan also, well they have advised it, this must be a new thing?

The blessed ponies haven't arrived for the advent calendar, bother! Trying to psych myself up to wash up the breakfast things...

Na it will be fine, history for pre eclampsia and its been picked up both times at 28 week routine apt so a bit tetchy at missing it already

So have babes 1 and 2 had to be delivered early then?

2 was induction, 1 decided she was coming before they had chance to induce. My girls have always been pests.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Years ago mum made us as kids an advent calendar with hoops on that she tied little presents to. I've done this for the girls with chocolates, but this year I'm doing "ponies in my pocket", only I'm not as they haven't arrived. Grrr.

According to the measure I use (mean of mouseprice and zoopla valuations) the house has lost 2k in value since I've been doing this diary.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!
