Just a quick one - very excited to see ticker has kick started again and is moving along - oh lord - I'm going to be 6 months on Saturday - where the heck did most of my second trimester go and if that was my peak energy load for this pregnancy I am in so-ooo-ooo much trouble with the coming third trimester

Cherished - you should see me on a day when I don't think I have felt the baby move - seriously - it has been a long journey to some degree of confidence - I think I cried when I saw a heartbeat on my 7 wk scan (I never got to see one when we lost Marley last year) and then at 16 weeks I finally heard the heartbeat at the GP's before the 20 wk scan with bub - it has been very hard in between to keep away the doubts and that nagging little voice which doesn't want to trust my body anymore... But as you say - it is that mantra of honouring each pregnancy in its own right that you just have to keep reinforcing for sanity...

I was trying to read a book last night in bed and it actually lifted when the baby kicked upwards in my stomach - energetic little tacker - I think I'm getting a preview of what my ability will be to find a quiet moment very soon in the future

Anyway - immersed in the joys of Hitler at the moment - lord I love marking...

Great week to all
