Firstly, my midwife appointment was at 9:20am which is fine and usually we would be there wayyy early, as I get too nervous of missing my appointment, but Matthew and I had the worst nights sleep as our silly car alarm kept going off alllllllll night. So when we had to deal with that andddd me being up for the toilet allll night- we were exhausted!! So we overslept and were rushing to our appointment. We actually got there for 9.30 when appointments only last 10 minutes so the midwife was rushing us in.
Because we were rushing I completely forgot that I needed to bring a urine sample for every midwife appointment, which is crazy for me as I've been bugging everyone about my appointments for weeks and usually have everything organised the week before, but anywho, the Midwife gave me a sample tube and told me to go and do a sample now... whaaattt?! I really didn't need the toilet then- probably the one and only time I don't need the toilet in my whole life- typical! But I tried and was in there for about an hour (obviously exaggerating just a little there) and eventually came out with the most measliest sample you've ever seen! Matthew just laughed his head off after the appointment haha. Butttt she was still able to get what she needed from it so it's not all bad.
Anyway, after that whole thing she eventually got me on the bed and we got to listen to our baby's heartbeat. It was the most precious thing in the world. I wasn't even worried about the heartbeat - so weird for me to not be worried because I just knew everything was fine as i've felt it move around loads already, but hearing the heartbeat was just perfect. It was really strong and fast and the midwife said it was a really good heartbeat for 16 weeks yayyy!!! anddddd Baby Pip was doing what Baby Pip does best - WRIGGLING! we heard it moving around in my belly - so cute! Maff was loving it, he said it felt so real hearing the heartbeat and listening to it move around. I just loveee looking at Maff's face when we go to the scan and when we were listening to the heartbeat. As soon as he sees the baby on the screen at the scan and as soon as we could hear that little heartbeat Maff's face just lights up - it's so precious to see and, at the scans reassures me sooooo much!
We have the 20 week scan on the 16th April and seems like forever away right now. We just can't wait to see it again and make sure everything's okay and hopefully find out if it's a baby girl or baby boy. I'm wayyy too impatient and keep looking at things on the internet of how to tell early what gender the baby is haha Maff thinks i'm crazy but I think deep down he loves it when I tell him these crazy theories and tell him the results ahha. We just can't wait to spoil it ROTTEN! We now have 5 months to go until we get to meet Pip which is going sooooooooo fast right now but we are just more and more excited all the time to see what it looks like and cuddle and love it sooooooo much.
Love
