04-8-2008 - 23 weeks...FEEL LIKE A PERSONAL GYM

My mood while writing this blog: Ok

WOW!!!! i am so unbelievably happy and madly in love already!!

I feel a little guilty cos i didn't get those feelings with Cameron. I had only been with Mark 6 months when i found out i was pregnant and had so many complications it was hard to feel close to the baby, but now 3 years on me and Mark are married i am 23 weeks with number 2 and had no problems at all (well just the norm lol)

I guess cos i am in a better situation i feel more relaxed about this pregnancy i am so excited. Everyt ime i feel my baby move (which is ALL THE TIME) i feel even closer to him. He is "standing up" and has a thing about doing squat thrusts off my bladder (which i saw him doing at my 21 week scan). He is such an active baby so far he is moving about between 2-3am 5-6am 9-10am 3-4pm 6-7pm 10-11pm. I am going to keep a diary of his movements closer to my due date and see if he sticks to it. Hopefully he will cos at least my body will be used to being awake at those times, ha ha ha.

I talk to Cameron about the baby all the time, and tell Cameron how when baby is here Cameron will be a specail big brother and trying to make it sound exciting to him too. At first he was in denial but now he is coming round...talks to the baby and say "you ok" to my belly. Everything is going so much better than i could have hoped for

I just hope i dont get pre-e again, i am trying to stay positive my BP is ok and Urine is ok too. (well kinda high but normal for me) i feel great (odd back ache) i am hoping for a natural labour i know i dont want to get induced again....Now i am waiting to hold and cuddle my new little baby. I am craving having a cuddle with a newborn i see all these tiny babies about and just cant wait.
