Well, I've been meaning to start one of these things since I first found out I was pregnant, and suddenly realised that if I didn't start soon the baby would be at University before I had written a word!
My name is Stacey and I am currently 21 weeks pregnant with my first baby. My husband and I weren't trying to get pregnant for very long before we found out our little family was about to get bigger. I took my first ever pregnancy test at 3.30 in the morning as I just couldn't wait any longer. By then I was already 5 days late on my period so I was pretty sure I knew what the result would be, but I was still so excited that I had to wake my poor other half up to share the news!
The past 21 weeks have been a bit of a blur - 2 scans, 3 appointments with a midwife, we've heard the baby's heartbeat and seen little toes. Last week we found out that we were probably on the pink team. Baby Ireson was a little shy (unlike her mother) so we won't be stocking up on pink clothes yet, but we are quietly confident that we'll have a little girl by the end of June.
I'm starting to get a decent bump on me now, and I might just be starting to feel the first twitchings of movement. Apparently I have something called an Anterior Placenta (basically, the placenta is on top) so it will probably take me a little longer to feel movement than other women, but hopefully there will be more on that in future posts.
