Today was my first scan with baby number 3....simple enough to get there by 12pm?!
However hard I try I can't leave the house with out running to the car, arms full of kids and baby bags...then realising I forgot something...how annoying!
Driving to the hospital start feeling faint...ugh pregnancy symptoms! I am already running late now I have to pull over and have some water!!
Phoned my husband then in a panicked state...how is he going to help me whilst in the forest... Silly me!!
Finally feeling better... Drive at top speed to get there on time..bear in mind the hospital car park is tiny, so people (and hospital staff) have to use all the side streets. Found a space a good 10 min walk away, up a huge hill..smashing!
Takes me a good 10 mins to get the push chair up, the girls out the car...and all my notes!! Practically ran to the hospital.. Ish!!! Our hospital is built on a big hill...so you have to go all the way to the top to get in....queue me huffing and puffing my way to the top!! #awkward
Within the last year they have been doing building work on the hospital.. New A+E department!! However they decided it was a brilliant idea to confuse everyone and change every floor number!!! I mean seriously!! So now you have to run about like a loon, to find the right place....thankfully the x ray department hasn't moved!
By this point I had consumed so much water I could barely move! (those who have been to baby scans before will understand)
Whilst having the scan, peanut was so active!!! Unfortunately it's too soon to tell the sex yet grr!! But if this one is anything like Ariana was, peanut will hide and not let me know til last minute.
Bella behaved really well..always does with other people! Little monkey!
It was quite funny seeing the look on the midwife's faces when I walked in..well it has been less than a year since I last saw them! :-)
Got to meet my personal midwife today too.. Amy, nice girl..pretty sure she is younger than me... How annoying!!
By this point both girls are getting antsy...it is dinner time! Queue homemade sandwiches... Life saver trust me!!!
Then Ariana thinks now would be an excellent time to be stinky...awkward!!
Final thing to do was have my bloods drawn...which I loathe!
Midwife could find no good veins...I did warn her that they hide at the mere thought of a needle! So I got to visit pathology... With two screaming kids..one of which decided to sit in the chair next to me and try to climb onto the nearest stool with wheels!! Very hard to grab her when someone is poking you with a needle.
Apparently she wanted to visit the A+E department today...
Finally she got some blood after jabbing me a lot...bruises for me tomorrow.
That lot took 2 hours...the longest 2 hours of my life!! Next time I am taking a friend with me...to watch the kids!! Ha!
I guess I should show all peanut here he or she is -
