Seeing as we’ve been asked, I thought I’d let you know how us other two are doing. I’m finding this pregnancy harder than last time, although that might have more to do with me not being able to go to bed whenever I feel like it. I have managed to convince Amy she needs a nap when I really need one so I’m not complaining. I’m 16 weeks tomorrow and the time is flying by. I keep wondering if we should start doing something about the baby coming but I can’t quite work out what.
Amy knows that there is a baby in mummy’s belly and enjoys looking at it through my belly button, in what I’m guessing is typical toddler behaviour. She’s told us at various times that she wants a brother called Louis and now it’s a sister called Molly. I’m surprised she doesn’t want to call it Maggie after her favourite cartoon (better than Ferocious Beast, hey Dan?). She’s really into dolls and loves other people’s babies so I’m hoping she’ll like her little one when it finally arrives, although I’m under no illusions.
I’m looking forward to the scan in a few weeks so I can see that it’s still really there. It’s not that I’m missing the morning sickness, but at least it made you feel pregnant! Last time I would be seeing the midwife about now to hear the heartbeat but they don’t bother at this stage anymore. At least the bump is starting to show but it may have been more noticeable if there wasn’t so much flab over the top (something to sort out after October, methinks).
