Hiya, I'm back!!!

Sorry, it's been a while again. Last time I wrote I was going for my 20 week scan, well that went fine, apart from the fact the placenta is quite low down, they told me this shouldn't cause any problems as they usually move out of the way before labour starts, so hopefully this will be the case.

Yesterday I had another scan to check the baby's heart, this is because I have a Heart Murmur, it's nothing major and I've never suffered with it, I just have to have check ups. Anyway, they told me they were ruling out any major problems with Baby's heart, they cannot however rule out minor problems, such as a minor Heart Murmur like mine as these do not always show up on the scan. As long as there is nothing major wrong I can cope with it. Baby was really jumping around all the way throught the scan, and it was great to feel and see it moving on the screen. Chris was there and he really enjoyed seeing the little one again.

I have a midwife appointment this week on thursday, so we should hear the heart beat then, I've heard it before, but Chris hasn't yet.

Work's going ok, but I'm still not enjoying it as much as before I found out I was pregnant, I think all my priorities have changed now. I hope I can come back as normal after my maternity leave, but we'll have to see. My boss has offered that I can work from home, although this is not the job I do now, I think a change would be good, I'm not sure I could do the job I do now on a part time basis, which is what I will be doing once the Baby is here.

Well Xmas is approaching fast, and I have been very organised this year, maybe that's because I know this is my last chance to be mega organised, I'm sure Baby will have a massive effect on it next year. I've got everyones presents sorted apart from stocking fillers for Chris, these can be bought on my lunch hours, so I do not need to come into town on saturdays and get knocked about. My belly is getting in the way now, and I cannot squeeze past people in the aisles of shops anymore.

This will be the last Christmas where me and Chris have to do any running around on the day itself. Next year we will be having a family christmas and I will be cooking christmas dinner. We are asking grandparents round on boxing day, my mum and dad shouldn't be an issue, but I'm sure Chris's mum will have something to say about it.

Anyway, can't promise to write again before xmas, as I will be very busy, so if I don't make sure you all have a good one.

Luv Em x
