    I didn't get round to the budget spreadsheet yesterday as I had a bath and fell asleep in there for 1.5 hours!! Then read a book I'd been meaning to read for ages and then went to bed :o
    I'm so tired that it's all I can manage - that and eating little jelly pots which are my lifeline at the moment :rotfl:

    Niece has 4 more teeth working their way through at the moment so she isn't feeling too hot - am going to try and get over and see her this weekend as I haven't seen her for over 2 weeks and am having withdrawal symptoms! Plus if all is well tomorrow I'll probably want to show the scan picture off to the parents, sister and brother in law :)

    I feel so sorry for babies struggling with teething. Our little granddaughter, two next month is having her molars coming through now and you can tell she is really suffering sometimes.

    Morning sickness is awful, I remember it with both of my girls and could not manage to finish cooking a meal in the first four months of pregnancy. My daughter used to feel sick just brushing her teeth when expecting her daughter. Hopefully it will start to tail off in a month or so. Good luck with scan tomorrow. Exciting but nerve wracking times, just like bringing up kids.:j:o

    Had my scan this morning and I am officially completely in love with our little donut :heart:

    Saw a beautiful heartbeat (131 bpm), the little head, arm buds and the developing brain! It feels so surreal even now. I sobbed as soon as I saw the heartbeat and to be honest I'm still having weepy moments now!

    Spent the rest of the day with my parents, sister and niece, who is almost 11 months old and kissed and rubbed my tummy without prompting! Babies really do have sixth senses!

    Good news on the scan Kirsty. :)

    I must admit crying at my first scan with DS, it makes it much more real at the early stages. :D
