22-6-2009 - another appointment

My mood while writing this blog: anxious

---

My next obstetrician's appointment looms - this afternoon to be exact. It seems that I can manage my anxiety pretty well for about two weeks, but by the third week I'm really starting to get twitchy. We had a "very good sign" that the little beans have kidneys last appointment, but until it's confirmed I will still imagine hearing those words "incompatible with survival" once again. And, even after I know that they've got all the right bits I'll still worry. I think it's just inevitable. Fingers crossed we'll get some more 'good signs' today... and then a complete and utter show stopper on Thursday (my next appointment with the specialist).

All the usual anxiety aside, though, I'm frickin' HUGE! Only 15 weeks and I look about 6 months! Bit scared as to just how big I'm going to get. Am starting to think I can feel some movement, but it's at that "was that it??" stage... which means that part way through cooking dinner, teaching my year 8's how to write an essay or while driving (scarily enough) I will stop everything, clutch my belly and concentrate really really hard to see if it's the little beans boppin' about... Still can't be sure though...

Anyway, my appointment is calling... hoping for another small sigh of relief... never get tired of those...
