I can't pretend I thought we had any hope of getting to the surgery for 9am, because lately we've been lucky to leave the house for midday, but we managed it in fact we arrived 5 minutes early!!!! It is amazing what you can do when you have to.
We were sent straight in, which was great. Everything went well but Sharon advised that I take iron suppliments because my something to do with my iron levels is low and I might end up feeling tired. Nigel commented that I already feel tired which is very true. Yesterday we went Ice Skating, then we walked around the shops and later the children had a 15 minute run around on the park and I thought I was dying by the end of that. I mean really exhausted! So perhaps that explains why. I am about to surf the net for iron rich foods because all I can remember ATM is dark chocolate, (and I'm definately not defficient in that!). I believe that a diet alteration is a much more fool proof method of raising iron levels than taking suppliments with who knows what in them.
We were able to listen to the heartbeat, no problem, which the children enjoyed but HRH seemed really delighted!
On Saturday, I weighed myself on my Dad's scales and was horrified to discover that I was almost 11 stone. I know we've had tons of chocolate and chocolate cake due to the time of year, (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!). But I was still disappointed, which is why I haven't posted about it before now. I felt sure that Sharon would moan about it and probably accuse me of having diabeties or some-such-like. However, this mornign I stepped onto the scales and to my delight I discovered that I have only gained 4 pounds! I'm only 10 1/2 stone. ( I really must learn to work in kilos because I'm sure that by the time this little baby is old enough to read this stones will be completely obsolete! I thing I was 66!)
This morning I was awoken by the baby wiggling at 6:10am. I never thought this would make me happy but it did. However, we didn't surface until 7:10am which was just about right. We got dressed straight away and I cannot believe the amount we've managed to get done. We've been to thye surgery, we dropped Nigel off at Dad's shop, we've wahsed up, I have a loaf baking and a line full of washing out and it is only 10:30! I must make more of an effort to do this each day!
