Hello my baby,
Well, we have had a busy week, haven’t we!
Last week Thursday Daddy and I went to a ‘Finding out about homebirth’ session at the hospital. It was really good and very encouraging to hear other people talk about their homebirths, the good and bad and so on. I am really excited about having you at home, where I can be relaxed and comfortable. And just think – your first night can be in your very own bed!
Baby,
I have been dying to write to you about this, but I’ve been waiting until Daddy could share in the experience too – and last night it happened!
Hello Baby,
We went recently for your abnormality scan. It’s the scan that happens around 20 or 22 weeks where the doctor looks at you for ages, then tells us if there’s anything wrong with you that we need to know about. Although we weren’t really concerned, there is a little voice in the back of your head that still asks the nagging question, “what if?”. As I said to Daddy the night before the scan, if tomorrow they tell us something is wrong with the baby, these are the last hours we have of a normal life! It was quite a daunting thought.
