Trimester 2

Diary of Pregnancy - Trimester 2

12 weeks - Had my NT scan on this day...note saw obstetrician first time two days ago and he does ultrasounds in his room ..he reviewed baby and could tell that downs risk was low and recommended not to do NT scan since low risk plus if not going to abort if baby downs...why do it and upset yourself....confused for 24 hours but went ahead with scan...waited so long for this pregnancy any chance to see our baby on the big screen was a bonus...even with all the good medical reasons why they do it...I want to have a normal pregnancy and do what normal pregnant women do and have the NT scan so at least I have clearer picture of what I might be dealing with

Baby G was perfect and risk was low...1 in 8000..such a relief to know even though it would not change our decision re pregnancy

Im so in love already with baby...morning all day nausea still here...still cant cook or eat red meat and reflux bad...



With results in hand can now share news publicly and best memory sharing on my nannas 90th bday that I am expecting...we both cried



14 weeks - enjoyed celebrating first wedding anniversary being pregnant..was showing since about 10 weeks so definately have tummy and am finally being the pregnant lady people are staring at instead of me staring and admiring other pregnant ladies wanting to be
pregnancy already preparing for motherhood as any visit away from home requires packing for food for eating every 2 hours, up & gos, fruit - watermelon, grapes, apples, bananas, nuts, muesli bars, crumpets...

16 weeks - am telling people I am pregnant as I see them...so overwhelming knowing Im pregnant and cant handle to officially announce it to everyone and let other shares the news...I want to tell people as I see them..
best friend since I was 3 got to catch up with...3 days due after me...we drifted apart in high school and after school but still have great foundations...our pregnancies together I believe has brought us back together ..and now we have something in common again...Im excited my baby will have some great play mates

Still requiring to eat every 2 hours otherwise feel sick...

Cravings are sour cream...cant get enough of it

Had second meeting with obstetrician...baby in good size and growing perfectly...

Got to enjoy first fathers day being pregnant...special moment





19 weeks - had first pregnancy photos done of myself by lovely hubby...cant believe how big I have gotten so quickly....definately cant hide that Im pregnant now...




Also had 20 week scan does at 19 weeks for rest of testing for baby...everything fine except baby would not move or co-operate for ultrasound..did not want to move..took 3 attemps to move baby to finalise scans

Now knowing baby is ok feel like I am ready to tell the world and facebook
