Hi ladies
I can't believe I haven't blogged in a week, that's not like me! Have you all missed me? Ha ha.
So I am 20 weeks pregnant today - woohoo! It feels brilliant. Only 20 weeks to go and only 3 more days until our scan. We are both soooo excited, so is my mum!
I've had a wonderful day today out shopping with my mum, she bought us a moses basket and the stand, lots of blankets and sheets and some slippers for me to wear in the maternity unit. We went for a nice lunch and it was a really lovely day.
Last night when I got in the bath I got my first proper kicks, I've been feeling little taps for a week or so but last night baby H kicked me hard quite a few times and I just sat smiling my head off, it was so amazing, I didn't dare move or breathe incase I missed it.
Steve is away with work, he went on Monday and is back tomorrow night, I'm missing him like mad but the peace and quiet has been nice. It's funny how much they get on your nerves when they're here but the minute they're gone you want them back. Bless him, he's put up with so much from me with my hormones and mood swings. Good job he loves me, I don't think I could have put up with me!
Steve rang the dentist for me yesterday and asked about me having that filling and they said they won't do the work while I'm pregnant. I am quite pleased they've said that, it's better that they don't take any risks. They said if it becomes too painful they will do something temporary until I've had the baby.
I hope everyone else is doing great, I am just going to catch up with all my messages now, don't think I've been ignoring you, just haven't been on much in the last week.
Lots of love from Helen xxx

Wednesday, 29 Apr MANY congratulations on week 20 hunny, its such a huge milestone! Im so excited to see your scan pics in 3 days, its quite a journey weve all been on with you and im so very thrilled that this one has led to you getting big hard kicks in the bath. Its such a special miracle isnt it? Another 2 weeks and those kicks will be constant and unmistakable!! Even i am still grinning from ear to ear at every little movement and every painful kick lol, 4th time round and the novelty will never wear off, i shall really miss it when hes born!
Thankyou for you lovely comment on my 32 week scan blog! Its strange that strangers are so excited for each other isnt it, but i guess common ground and the miracle of pregnancy connects every woman on a higher level, especially when theres been heartbreak before. I can tell you that im sticking around on here long AFTER my babys born so that i get to see photos of your long awaited baby and your estatic little family photos, wouldnt miss that for anything, lots of tears me thinks lol ;) xxx kwaggonerrn -
