Hello everyone again, as promised here is the second look into my tummy at our little fae.

He/She is 11 weeks and 2 days old at the time of the scan and doing very well...

We went to see the obstetrician for the scan on friday 14th march just after noon. We sat in the waiting room for just over half hour after travelling there by public transport and taxi and i was a little hungry as we had not eaten much that morning.  When i was called in i lay on the couch got the cold gel squirted on and the scan commenced...

We were greeted by the baby looking directly out at us... Once it had let us see it was watching us back and let us listen to the heartbeat it decided to dance for us. The obstetrician was getting a little annoyed and muttering under her breath as she tried in vain for a good half hour to get a good measurement whilst the baby did somersaults, turned upside down and generally wriggled about inside me. When she eventually managed to get her readings she then had to get baby to look away from the scanner to get a profile picture for us. She had to try and manipulate baby by squidging around on my tummy to make baby look away, at one point she had to stop the scan because my tummy was jiggling around so much with me laughing, I was almost crying with laughter. I had to compose myself and apologise so she could continue. She commented that usually at this age most babies are not as active as ours, which has give us something to think about for when he/she is born. Is it going to be hyperactive and running around all the time keeping us on our toes. LOL.

We are looking forward to the next scan, which is in the middle of May. Baby will be 20 weeks old then. We invited my mother to come along too, so she can see her grandchild before he/she is born. This will be the first scan she has ever seen "live" and knowing what she is like we will have to take some tissues for her. We will also find out the sex at this scan we hope, if baby keeps still long enough and shows us what we need to see! 

Thats it for this blog, thank you for reading and taking an interest, We will of course update with more scan piccys and maybe even another funny story, speak soon and fairy blessings to all.
