My journey as a mother to baby number two..

28weeks

I had my scan yesterday! Our bambino is estimated at 2lb10oz and is breech, he also let us all see his ‘gender’ again as soon as the sonogropher turned on the scan, good job we knew already ;) haha!

27+5

Watching the Daughter & Mister have a tea party whilst I’m lay on the sofa with my feet up with the Son kicking.. Doesn’t get much more perfect!

Catch up… It’s been a while!

Where do I start? It’s been so long.

27+4

I’m currently twenty seven weeks and four days in to this pregnancy, yes that far already! Before I know it, he will be making his appearance. I feel like I’m housing a family of five under my top. I feel fantastic. SPD is a pain in the arse, okay pelvis! but even with that, this whole pregnancy thing is amazing.. I didn’t really enjoy it with Aurora but this time round I’m loving it.
I have a scan on Monday, a growth scan to see how he’s growing. I think he’s going to be huge like Aurora was at first until she stopped growing.

Delivery

I have been told, I DO have the option of natural birth or VBAC but with that come terms, in order to have a natural birth they want me to have an epidural if they can get it in… Something I’m not content with. AND either way they don’t think they’ll be able to get my epidural/spinal in and strongly believe if I need another section I will have to be put to sleep, how wonderful. My biggest fear.

Aurora

Aurora is two at the end of the month, it’s crazy how fast that’s gone too! She’s such an amazing little girl, she pulls up my top, blows raspberries on my bump and insists it ‘makes baby happy’ - it’s beautiful. 

James and I … and our lack of relationship at the moment.

So, I’ve been pregnant for a while, we found out at the end of November/beginning of December. Since then we’ve had sex about five times, he doesn’t touch me, kiss me, nothing. At first I thought it was fears with this pregnancy which I understood after the past pregnancies but as it’s progressed I’m starting to believe the lack of intimacy could mean more… like he doesn’t love me any more, like he doesn’t find me attractive any more. I’ve tried all the tricks in the book (talking to him, taking lead etc) and nothing works, it’s as if nothing is there any more. I don’t really know where I stand and it hurts. James and I have never been like this, we’ve always been close and happy. 

Housing

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before but the house we live in has started going down hill and our landlord hasn’t been doing repairs so the estate agencies that we our with our trying to rehouse us, very kindly without a need of bond or anything like that which is fantastic news!

Baby stuff

We have so much now, all we NEED before babies arrival is a feeding pillow… OBVIOUSLY that’s not all I’m going to buy… I want more clothes, nappies, wipes, creams, etc but I have plenty already for at least the first month! ha.

That’ll do for now and I will try to keep you all updated better from now on, via my phone normally so I can’t see replies but I PROMISE I will get back to everyone whenever I come on the computer. Hope everyones pregnancies, TTC and babies are all going/doing well :)
