Week 15: movement and emotional wreckage

This week has been one of the most hectic since doing the Christmas production in terms of school - I am up to my neck in work and not feeling terribly inclined to do any of it! Hence emotional wreckage - I resent having to work such long hours with so little free time. I can't keep on top of everything at home, and Scott has tons of photography work to do so he can't do as much as he might like. Still, come July I should get the nesting instinct and everything will be clean and spick and span.

Hot baby bump news - I can now feel Chimmy moving. On Wednesday there was a definite bubbling feeling, and today there were two definite thumps that felt like a strong heartbeat. I'm assuming that was the baby, not wind!!

I ordered a few bits of maternity wear at the weekend and they have now arrived, so I can start showing my bump off with pride - Newlook for some baby bump covers and a t-shirt, plus a gorgeous wrap-around cotton cardigan from JoJo Maman Bebe. Plus, because I bought them through the Kidstart website, a percentage of the purchase price has been put aside for our baby's Child Savings Account. Check it out if you get a chance - most online versions of high street shops put a percentage of any online purchase into a kidstart for a child of your choice (or it can be split between several children). As our baby hasn't been born yet, they will hold the money for us until the birth and will then transfer it across when we open an account. All sounds pretty good. I love free stuff!

It sounds like lots of people are reading the blog now, which I'm really pleased about. Thanks all, and we'll see you all soon no doubt :D

Much love,

Jeanie, Scott and Chimmy.
