15+5 today.
How time flies. I can't believe it has been 10weeks since I updated my blog.
The sickness is pretty much gone now. Was less from about 12weeks when I started taking hayfever tablets. Naughty of me to take them but they are good at settling MS. Now I am virtually sickness and hayfever tablet free.
I found out last week that I have a low PAPP-A level which can cause growth problems later in pregnancy. Was quite terrifying when I first got the letter but I have come round to the idea now. I will speak to MW next week but from my internet research it seems that growth problems due to PAPP-A are quite rare so FC all will be well.
Although I have discovered that there is also a risk that the baby could have clicky hips due to my history which is increased if its a girl. I feel like I have so much more knowledge this time round and it is leading to more stress and worry.
Got a little bump growing now though which is lovely even if what little waistline I had is disappearing I'm sure I can feel a few little movements of an evening too. I could be imagining it but it feels like something is brushing against me but on the inside.
I am finally feeling excited again. Was excited before being but as soon as I found out I was I started to panic a bit. Seem to be able to overcome the worry of all the potential problems more now though.
I am looking forward to and maybe doing it a bit longer this time, assuming DP is not as uptight as last time Also can't wait to get a child back in cloth! I got a bargain off ebay earlier in the week. 7 wraps, 15 terry nappies, a nappy bucket and 6 boosters for 99p and it was so close I was able to collect in less than 20minutes! Just got to practice folding now!
Got my fingers crossed for a good outcome for my next 2 scans. 17 weeks checking for potters syndrome and 20 weekS to check the placenta for blood flow and potential growth issues to do with the low PAPP-A.
Will keep updated...
