It's a girl!

When we went for our 20 week scan, again I was nervous as they make sure the baby has developed as it should and certain parts of her anatomy are working correctly. And if the baby is playing the game, you can find out the sex of the baby. Of course we wanted to know! And to find out that we were expecting a girl I was in shock. I was convinced that the baby was going to be a boy! 

 

 

Look at her blowing bubbles! That little face is definitely girly! 

 

 

This was my gender reveal photo on Instagram! 

This day was the most exciting day bar her being born for me during our pregnancy.  My dream had come true and I was getting my daughter and she was healthy and I couldn't wait to meet her.

A member of the family really tainted this day for me though, she wanted to know why we didn't personally let her know we were having a girl and that she was upset she found out through Facebook! Because it's always all about you isn't it!!!! We told close family parents, siblings etc but didn't feel the need to go through our phone book and tell people we hadn't seen or spoken to in years! This same person also dug me out on the day of the birth, texting literally hours after Rosie was born saying the usual Congrats but then followed up with I'd really like to meet the baby as I don't think I'll see many photos seen as Jo's removed me from social media. Because that's exactly what I want to hear after I've just given birth! And yet still members of the family don't think she's done anything wrong - lunatics! Just tried to ruin 2 of the most important days of my life. Anyway, rant over, moving on! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see I really popped from 25 weeks, I adored watching my tummy grow and change shape. I didn't weigh myself during pregnancy apart from when a HCP weighed me, as my pre preggo leggings still fit right the way to the end! 

Next post we'll talk about the third trimester!
