In limbo....

Well Mum feels a little like she is in limbo right now, past the first trimester so not as tired but only 15 weeks (as of Friday) so cannot feel you moving around just yet and still 5 weeks to go to the 20 week scan and we can find out if you will be a boy or girl (provided you are not too shy that is)! Mummy is getting impatient...Daddy would say that this happens a lot with Mummy :)

We next see Meera after the 20 week scan so not til the end of July - Mummy bet check that appointment card to see exactly when it is!!

Not much else is happening right now, we need to move some things around in the house so that the kitties are not being fed in the room which will now be yours and then we will need to start sorting that out as Daddy wants to paint it for you :)

It is getting pretty late now so Mummy thinks we should both go to bed.

Lots of love,
Mummy and Daddy

Ever better odds

Just heard from Meera again, and the blood tests are back from Australia. The odds of our chickling having Downs syndrome have gone from 1 in 350 (based purely on Juliette's age), to 1 in 6800 (based on mucal translucency) to 1 in 70,000. I like dem odds!

Time for the big reveal!!

Well we saw Meera again today and everything with the scan is good - the down syndrome risk has dropped from 1:350 to 1:7000 so very reassuring!

We actually got to see Chickling move on the scan Meera did today which was so awesome - such a thrill :o)

So now we wait a couple of months before the 20 week scan when we can find out the sex (provided baby co-operates) and then we see Meera again to review.

And of course now we feel reassured that all is well we can tell EVERYONE!! We've already been to visit my Nan and tell her and I am going to call my Nana (Dad's Mum) shortly.
