lol WHAT are we like!?
Louie, hope that the meeting is water under the bridge now, and your head is sorted after it ((Hugs)) if you need to talk off the board feel free to pm me or I'll send you my email addy.
Trudi, goodness, you are SO like me when it comes to placements! lol I can never sleep during the decision making process. I'm a terror for it when things are in my head and last night that was the trouble. Graham came down just before 4am and made me go back to bed! lol I didn't tell him till this morning that I hadn't been asleep till then! But did sleep well till the alarm went off at 7am though.
I'll be honest that i've had thoughts of whether my mind is ready for this baby! lol sounds mad after 8 years of trying but after adopting Adele I had TOTALLY come to terms that I would never have another baby and that our family was complete. I'm now 8 weeks and wondering.. scared for the scan when it comes up - but also scared that I'll still feel this unattached after the scan. I have a certain % that is detached from being pregnant as a self defence thing I think. But what if it doesn't go? See.. that's what was keeping me up!
I have tried to help things a little today, I bought some pineapple jogging bottoms, with stretchy (ultra stretchy) elasticated (double width type) waist band, a lovely outfit for the wedding (next 3/4 length purple leggings with a long tunic type top that covers well from debenhams and is really pretty), sandles and jewellery to go with them, and a maternity t-shirt and half length maternity track bottoms.
All in a range of sizes from 14-18, but the 18's are for 'room'.
I have had to put away my 14/16's as they are all way too tight now, my tummy really has ballooned, I'm sure it's water retention but still there.. my waist has dissappeared already!
Also, Graham keeps wanting to buy things for the baby and I'm always 'not yet' as am waiting for the scan, but I let him buy 2 6 packs of muslins today in Tesco's they were buy 1 get 1 free and a great price, there were loads of bargains but I held him off those! lol
Sorry to go on.. but I know you girls will understand my train of thought.
I really just hope that once the scan is over I can be excited, listening to the heartbeat will really help with the midwife too in between scans. I'm hoping she can get that when she see's me on the 2nd June. I'll be 11 weeks.
If you've read all my rambling - Thank you!! ((hugs))
