Hello I'm izzie from Warrington UK. I live with my boyfriend Andy who I love to bits, got together when I was 19 and he was 23. We have a little girl called Amy (or Amyroo lol) who was born on 26th august 2008, she was 17 days LATE which wasnt very nice but she was born and was and still is perfect. Were also very recently pregnant

About our Amy

She's completely potty trained and is improving on her talking everyday. She has had facial recognition since she was 14 months old which is apparently good and has a good understanding of complex situations. She's full of love and joy and is just a little bundle of fun. I hope she's a scientist one day lol. She loves drawing cooking painting running and playing and she loves peppa pig. I adore my little girl.

Amy is starting nursery in September, she will be attending 5 mornings a week to get her used to the idea of formal education and schooling. We took her to the open day and I have never seen a child more excited about anything in my life. She keeps asking us now "when can I go to school please" Uniforms are not compulsory but i think i may put her in one so she gets used to the idea of school uniforms too.

She still doesn't know about the new baby, not properly. She keeps looking at my belly confused and saying "mummy let yourself go!!!" not sure where shes picked that up from but its very VERY funny, but she does know mummy's tummy is delicate and no longer throws herself on me, were having a 3d scan on August 9th, and were taking her so she can see there's a baby in there and then she can get excited:D.

She is so polite, everything is please and thank-you everyone she meets says how good she is and how well she mixes with adults and children shes not shy at all:D

About Baby 2

22/02/2011

Last period 21.1.11, cycle usually last 32 ish days so I got worried when AF didn't show. Done 4 tests all very faint pos. I went online and worked out due to cycle length id be due on 1st November so I'm probably too early to test properly. Iv told no one other than a couple of girls on here,

28/02/2011

Did two more tests both positive, pos line is still very faint but did a conception indicator digital thing and it came up pregnant 2-3 weeks pretty fast. finally told Andy who wasnt too impressed but then felt bad about it lol. Im still so scared and now we have to find a bigger house with the no money we have lol

We had our first peak of baby today, scan dated me at 9 weeks 2 days so I'm exactly where i suspected I was after some research, Andy kept saying "its just a blob" but it was very special to me and had a heart beat so I was relieved. I truly thought as my symptoms were so different to when I was having Amy my baby wasn't doing well. But all is well and I have another scan and blood work booked in for 21/04/2011

21/04/2011

We went for a 12 week scan today at the local hospital, the lady doing the scan was a student and her mentor which i was more than happy with as students are more thorough lol, she scanned baby and checked the size 8 times and decided my due date is now 30.10.2011 so I have moved forward 2 days (woop). Baby was wriggling around and dancing away it was so cute and even Andy got emotional at it, i think as it looked like a baby this time rather than a blob he made an emotional connection with it. Scan again in June to check for abnormalities but we are NOT finding out the sex

16/06/2011

Had the 20 week scan and stuck to our word, were not finding out the babies sex. all was fine but the lady did want to re look at the heart in a few weeks as the baby was not behaving well and wouldn't let her scan it properly. I'm obviously worried that somethings wrong but she was more than sure it was fine they just needed to measure something that they couldn't do due to the baby and its position. The next scan is on 13/07/2011

13/07/2011

Had the second 20 week scan (at 24 weeks lol) the baby was still been awkward and wouldn't show his or her heart but eventually the scan technician managed to get it and all is well, she tried to get a shot of the face but baby is not one for photos apparently (she kept saying it was unphotogenic which i think is a wrong choice of words lol). Andy was happy as the baby was waving (well he said it was) and she managed to get it drinking which was really cute, We didn't find out the sex again which I'm glad about but I did think I saw boy bits, then I thought i saw girl bits, but the scan technician had to break it to me that she was looking at baby's spine and was no where near the bits in question so i have no idea what i was looking at haha. She swore blind she didn't venture down there so were still in the yellow:D:D:D

13/08/2011

Had the 3d scan today, baby was NOT behaving and it was really difficult to get a decent picture but after a long while we got a few, it was a bit disappointing really but when it started behaving it was lovely. Baby looked a lot like Amy at the same stage they have many similar features. Amy came with us and was absolutely fascinated:D Baby is still team yellow which were so happy about
