Saturday night's scan went well, and that really helped my mental make-up. Amazingly, I have lost weight (about 1.9 kgs) between the last weigh-in and Saturday's weigh-in, and I was happy for that too. The baby is doing well, and frankly speaking I started the current pregnancy at a much higher weight than the last two, and it's not hurting to shed those kilos.
My appetite is dodgy, and I struggle to remember to eat things I consumed religiously in my previous pregnancy - walnuts and almonds daily, without fail.
Figzy is really rolling, and acknowledges the baby on her own. For everything we run short of, you know, things like chocolates and ice-creams and whatever else is the object of desire at a point of time, she tells me:
"I will bring it from the market - for Figlia, Mummy and the baby. Okay?"
I relish that little addition to her list of people she wants to get things for. I also feel a little scared that if things do not end well, it could be painful for her too.
Wednesday night, she slept in her underwear (that is, minus the diaper), and there were no accidents. I am hoping that we will make a complete switch soon.
Yay for a good scan! Figzy is so sweet. I love hearing how excited she is about the baby!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet - what an excellent sister! And hurray for dry nights!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the scan went well - don't forget to eat.
Wohoo for the good news!!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet. Congrats on the good scan.
ReplyDeleteWe tried the no-diaper-at-night thing one night. It resulted in me getting up at 4:00am to change her and the sheets. I'm not keen to repeat the experience any time soon.
ReplyDeleteHappy for good news! I know one cannot help thinking on all possible outcomes, especially considering past experience, but you cannot prepare for the worst that could come. Nor can you prepare anyone else. Let your thoughts focus on the present, which is in your hands. And face the future when it becomes present.
ReplyDeleteAs for dry nights, I have two pieces of ad(ss)vice: limit liquid before going to sleep, and do NOT let the child sleep in. Indeed, sleeping later in the morning is the bonus of growing older, but until the complete mastery of holding it in, you can't really enjoy this perk. :-)
Glad the scan went well! And hoping very much all things continue on that path.
ReplyDeletegood job sleeping with no accidents Figzy!
ReplyDeleteand so happy for your scan :)
