Hey everyone! This is my first pregnancy ! yay!!!

I am currently only 10 weeks pregnant .. not far off the end of first trimester!!

througout my blog ill be posting ultrasounds and talking about things i have bought, things i have been feeling and doctors appointments and birthing plans etc. . so hopefully soon things will get more interesting!

So lately i have been buying some basic things .. simply because im so excited and just want to buy all cute things !! haha especially the really cuddly fabrics !

What I've bought so far:

Bath Thermometer
Finger thermometer
bath toys ( ducky family and boat )
about 3 blankets
two bath towels and face washers
about 6 bottles and teats for different months
breast pads
dummies ( about 8!)
bottle cleaning brushes
about 5 jumpsuits 03 months
a coupl eof beanies
some sockies
mits
bottle carrier
bottle cooler
nappy covers

.....n i think thats about it so far! hahaha . i know i went a little crazy right!!! but it wil all be used for sure. theres so much stuff to buy! although everybody thinks diferentlly about what they want etc. So yes thats about it for now.

I had my blood / urine tests done week 8 for hepatitis , anitbodies rubella .. blood cell counts etc. . all is fine :) which is good!!! yay!

My next doctor appointment / ultrasound appoitment is in week 12 .. so two weeks away on the 4th of Febuary i will get to see my little buby again!!! =D .. so excited!!! I can feel my uterus growing at the moment as i have light cramping again which dissapeared after 7 weeks up untill 9 weeks they started again .. so i guess that is good news that our baby is growing :)

I had an Ultrasound at 6 weeks 3 days .. it looks tiny .. I had to have a viginal scan as i had'nt consumed eough water before the ultrasound .. as i wasnt expecting to get one. I shall attach a photo!

6 Weeks 3 Days ( uterus measuring 8 cm ) *sorry it is so unclear*
