So sorry I have been so MIA … we have done the big move! Thank god for mums!! MY wonderful mummy came down to help and did 99% of the cleaning and organising on the packing end! I had lots of help too from my friends in Corryong- which made it all the sadder to leave knowing I was leaving such good people!! We got a big truck and moved it all in one go which was great! And we are all settled in the new house- well as settled as we can be- I still have lots of unpacking to do- and the house is bigger- so I am going to be checking out some garage sales for some extra furniture to help fill it up!!
On the baby front- all is looking great there, I am going to the antenatal clinic at Calvary Hospital- I saw the dr today- bubs is head down but not engaged yet. I did have a little scare with a really bad case of thrush a few weeks ago- but some antibiotics helped that and all is good now. I see the midwife in two weeks for my last anti-D injection, then the Dr again two weeks after that to book in for the csection!!
As for organising things here.. I got given a MASSIVE amount of girls clothes from a friend in Corryong- we were able to do a swap as I was having a girl and her a boy – and we were both calling it quits after this. She had two girls already though- and I thought I had done well by what I gave her- until I picked up what she had for me!!! My daughter will be dressed for YEARS to come!!! I just have to sort through it all!! It’s time to wash the newborn things, and I actually bought nappies the other day!! I had been pretty much putting off all organising until the move- and well the day I go here I went into “Baby is Coming over drive!!” My cousin is coming over tomorrow to help me set up the nursery (she will be in the bassinette in our room to start with though) and to help go through all the clothes!!
I am now on the look out for a playgroup- and I have found a thread here for a monthly meet up here in Canberra that’s happening next week I think- so that should be good!!
For now I have dinner cooking and Shane is watching some playschool- so I thought I better say hi!! Sorry no chance of personals today- I will try to get back into gear soon!!
KAM - I'm so glad the scan went well, that must have been magical seeing her kicking away! I know it sucks not being able to see into the future, but another positive scan is great news
StarBright - Happy Housewarming! Glad to hear that all is going great with bubs, not long now!
Dory - milestone day for you! Not sure exactly what it is, maybe a pregnancy PB?! Hopefully the next few months is full of more happy milestones!
Laney - yay for another great scan! I hope time races until June 14th and you can tick that one off as well.
AFM - just back from my dating scan and all good for now, little bean visible with a nice heartbeat of 150, phew! First bridge crossed, another 50 or so to go!
