Midwife - Visit One

Today we got to meet the midwife - Lyn. She's been in this business for some years now which is always reassuring. Lots of questions, a few blood tests, urine test and blood pressure.

Ryan sat there and looked handsome and held the huge pile of bits and pieces we were given to read through over the next wee while. Most of it is 'junk mail' advertising maternity wear and cleaning products, nappies and the like.

There was one book however that will probably prove helpful. Care of the wonderful NHS - The Pregnancy Book - Your complete guide to: a healthy pregnancy, labour and giving birth, life with your new baby.

Sweet we're sorted! More bedtime reading!

So what's next: Lyn is going to try and get us in for a dating scan before Christmas so we'll just have to wait for the appointment to come in the mail and hopefully my roster and Ryan's work commitments will fit around it. Looking forward to seeing this little person squirming around inside.
