Gemma’s Pregnancy - Week 21

Gemma’s pregnancy has now past the half way stage.

Knowing this makes everything seem all that much closer. The time has flown by since we found out that Gemma was pregnant. It really doesn’t seem that long ago at all. That means that its not long to go until all those sleepless nights again!

There is not huge amounts of news to report at the moment. The baby is kicking a lot more, he must be practising his technique for the football team. Gemma’s bump is expanding quite rapidly now, and she is looking really glowing with it.

18 Week Ultrasound scanI’ve finally managed to scan our latest ultrasound picture from our 18-20 week scan, which you can see now on the right. He is looking a lot bigger now, as you’d expect, and here is what he looked like at 12 weeks.

The other day we went to Mothercare to get a few things for the baby’s bedroom. We got a wall border, curtains and a lightshade, plus a Grobag (sleeping bag, for those not in the know) for the baby to sleep in when he’s big enough. Once we’ve finished transforming our garage, we can finish off the bedroom.

Well, that’s it for now, until my next update.

    Wow! That is an insane difference between the 2! And great to see as I can now get more excited about what I will be able to see at our next scan!

    Wifey is starting to get a lot mroe tired even though we read it gets easier this trimester! I think going to 2 concerts in 4 in London took it out of the poor girl somewhat!!

    I can imagine that 2 concerts would have that effect! Who did you go and see?
    We’re still waiting to hear back about our tests following the last scan, I’m sure that everything is ok. I’m looking on the bright side.

    Went to see The Smashing Pumpkins at the o2 on the Saturday and then Jimmy Eat World at Brixton Academy on the Sunday.

    Well, look at it this way. If it was something urgent, the chances are they would have come to you by now about it. That is probably the easiest way to look at it anyway! Keep us updated on it all though…
