Baby's Heartbeat #2

Couldn't help but have another play with the doppler this morning. Managed to get this short recording before baby had a wriggle and then hid behind the placenta.

30 Weeks

Bump is brewing nicely. Mum-to-be is getting very tired and not getting much sleep. Apparently baby is now about 3 pounds and fully formed, just needs to put some weight on.

Some great news this week as our friends had their baby, a healthy boy weighing 8 pounds 1 ounce. Welcome to the world Billy!

All this excitement has really brought home the fact that we're now less than 10 weeks away. Better get sorted!

4th Midwife's Appointment

I managed to forget that Wifey even had a midwife's appointment yesterday (despite it being in my Google calendar for weeks!), but then I suppose it's quite normal now. Just another midwife's appointment, 29 weeks 2 days, SFH 30cm, fetal movements, fetal heart as normal, nothing to worry about, situation normal, mundane really. I can feel our stress levels dropping by the week now as we get closer to counting down the weeks in single digits!

Random thought: This week is all about privates!

27 Weeks vs 37 Weeks

On Sunday we spent the morning at Symonds Yat with friends and were able to compare bumps with K again (on the left). She's now 37 weeks and ready to pop. It was quite funny watching the two of them waddling around, though I think Mrs Wife has a little work to do on perfecting her waddle. Looking forward to receiving K's news and wishing them well for their home birth :)
