Had the scan on Friday, all is well!! Measured at 10+6 so baby is due on 13th February 2010. Just as I had worked out. :)
It was absolutely magical seeing Baby B waving and kicking about. And at one point he turned and faced where the Sonographer was scanning and we could see the heartbeat fluttering away. So perfect. (No, we don't know that baby is a 'he', but I am NOT calling my baby 'it'!)
Then we had the fun of telling our siblings that evening. Everyone is sooo pleased for us, it's fabulous that they excitement isn't contained to just us any more!
We saw much of the family on Saturday. My Dad offered to buy us the cot when we are ready. Fantastic Dad! My Grandparents are thrilled they are going to be Great-Grandparents, and my Aunt that she is going to be a Great-Aunt. My Mum and sisters insisted on going into a few baby shops, and I have ended up with 2 maternity tops and 1 breats-feeding top for my birthday in August. And a My First Steiff Bear from my sisters and a t-shirt and little coat from my younger sister. And 3 sleepsuits, bibs and a little rattle from my Mum. Also, my Mum and younger sister have started knitting! Then from MIL, we collected one of Husband's t-shirts from when he was little, and his baby shawl that MIL knitted, which is beautiful. The t-shirt is important to Husband as his Dad brought it back form one of the oil rigs he was working on, and MIL said it's the only thing he brought back for the children. Very special. baby is already spoilt. And as we both get paid on Friday, I can finally buy something for baby! :) :) :)
