We have our 8th scan today...

... this will be the 34 week growth scan, to determine if Mini Mint is likely to be in any stress if we get further along. I'm pretty certain things are going to go well, despite measuring 4 weeks bigger than expected at the 30 week scan.

I've had two appointments with the diabetic consultant and obstetrician, and they have both been really happy with my progress, and the fact that I have been managing the Gestational Diabetes with diet alone. I've only had a couple of 'spikes' in the four weeks that I've been monitoring, and I know why they happened.

Apparently, Dave is right. Pot Noodles ARE evil.

I can't wait to see the little fella today. We had a kind of 'surprise' scan at the last obstetrician appointment. There was a student in the room with us, and Dr. Sadique asked him to do a scan to find the baby's heartbeat. It took him ages, but while he was looking we got a REALLY good look at Mini Mint's face - I nearly cried.

But, as I've already said this week - I'm a hormonal old tart.
