12 WEEKS | ULTRASOUND SCAN

Pretty self-explanatory.... today we had our dating scan! Fortunately everything is looking completely normal. I actually measured over for the dates we had so far, so I went into the appointment thinking I was 12 weeks + 1 and I'm actually 12 weeks + 5, meaning I'm due on 20th January next year. Baby was very active, and the sonographer had to do quite a bit of digging around to try and get a picture for us. When we tell everyone on Sunday I'll actually be just over 13 weeks and well into the 'safe zone'. I can't help wondering if anyone suspects anything.. I really don't think they do.

We are also telling Vivienne tonight and hopefully filming her reaction for future family video purposes. We both can't wait to hear what she has to say. Just this morning was prodded my stomach and said "I wish there was a baby in there".

David insists he can't really tell but I'm sure I'm showing a little now. My jeans and trousers are feeling pretty snug at the top, and especially in the morning before I go to the loo I have a definite little ball of a bump there. I still get mild waves of nausea here and there but everything is starting to ease off more - I'm hoping I get a little more energy back to power through the next trimester and wedding season too!
