April 16th - Sunnyside Maternity

So today I had my second Maternity Appointment at Riley Park Maternity Clinic with the Sunnyside Group and I had a great time. 

Unfortunately Shaun couldn't make it due to work but we had a great catch up when he finished work. 

They checked my weight and I had only gain an ounce in the last 4 weeks, haha. So she wants me to attempt to gain some weight now, easier said than done when you want to puke every day! 

I finally got to hear baby's heart beat - It was amazing! It sounded like a choo choo train, so beautiful! I cannot remember whether it was beating at 155 or 158 beats per minute but either way it was a nice strong heart beat.

The doc has prescribed me a pregnancy support belt for my back as it has been giving me a little trouble. 


She also showed me how to fell the uterus which has now popped out of my pelvis and in to my tummy, hence the instant bump that seems to have protruded over night!! She also informed me that I have been moved forward, so officially 13 weeks pregnant yesterday - She said "Welcome to the Second Trimester". Big grins all round!

They have arranged to see me again on May 14th and we have our 18 week scan booked for May 28th! :)


Lots of love from the 3 of us xx
