I got my latest scan today, Stewart came along with me and right on queue baby put on a show for his/her dad to see. The doctor was really pleased that the scans were coming out so clearly that she took 6 captures for us and the most amazing close-up of our baby’s profile and I’m so pleased that I thought I would share it with you.

Sorry I haven’t been cooking and sharing recipes but I’m still really exhausted so trying to find the motivation to spend any length of time preparing anything other than salads isn’t easy. As I said before normal service should hopefully be resumed shortly.

Pam, what a great picture! He/she is a little cutie, you can just tell.
Sorry to hear you are not feeling well. Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks Sara!! I couldn’t believe that we could see all of the baby’s features in this. I must admit I have spent the past 24 hours staring at this picture in awe!!
I was really pleased that my morning sickness only lasted a week and a half. I’m sure my tiredness will pass soon.

Owww… this is the most exciting! And yes, you can definitely tell he/she’s a cutie! This is what makes it so real, doesn’t it?
I’m very happy for you both

Congrats! Do you plan to find out if it’s a boy or girl before you give birth, or are you leaving that as a surprise?

I know what you mean Mae, I’ve had quite a few scans already but I’ve never seen anything there that looked like a “proper” baby until now.
In every one of my the other scans the baby was static but this time it was moving around like mad. Definately feels real now!

TFP - Thanks!! I think we’re gonna try and find out the sex if we can, not that I’m really looking for a boy or girl.. a healthy baby will do just fine

Congratulations! That is one lucky kid there. From the food I’ve seen on this blog I think he/she is in for a treat! Good luck with everything and take it easy in the kitchen. I still haven’t got round to making your burgers yet!

How are you doing now? I NEED an update!!! ultrasounds are the best.

Paz - Thanks for the hug!!
Rosa - We’re both chuffed to bits, it’s so exciting!
Barry - Good luck with the burgers
Nicole - Happy Halloween to you too (sorry if my wishes are a little late but the sentiment is there all the same)
Puspha - Thanks!!
Gabriella - Things here are going great, I’m feeling brilliant (although still getting tired - it’s improving)! My next scan is on 27th November and I can’t wait. My last scan seems soooooo long ago. I’m not 100% sure but I think I felt the baby move a couple of times this week! I’m really enjoying being pregnant, it’s done wonders for my skin and people keep telling me that I look really healthy so it’s safe to say that pregnancy really seems to agree with me so far - 16 weeks down and 24 left to go!
