Such a wonderful sound!

Just a quick one. I went along to the Doctors today for an ultrasound referral, and ended up getting to listen to the heart beat! Yay!! It was really wonderful to hear. The little reassurances like bumps and a heartbeat make me feel like everything is going just fine.

We're booked in for an ultrasound at Werribee on the 4th of Jan. Can't wait to actually see the little one when it actually looks like a real baby and not just a flickering blob like we saw at 6 weeks.

Midwife appointment is on Friday, so it will be good to sit down and talk over things with her.

Starting to feel better

I'm now 17 weeks along, and things are starting to look up. I'm not sick nearly as often as I was, and it seems now to only be bad when it's hot and humid. Too bad we're in summer now! Thankfully the weather has been mild and I should be well over being sick by the time it gets really hot.

Had an adventure over the weekend, headed off to the Meredith Music Festival (I bought tickets before I was pregnant) for a couple of days of camping, good company and good music. Had a ball! Even though I couldn't be right up the front of the crowd like I usually am, I was lovely to watch and enjoy some fabulous artists like Neil Finn and Sally Seltmann perform. I was definately a piker and was in bed around midnight both nights, but it was cold, windy and rainy so it would have been yuck to stay out anyway. I certainly enjoyed listening to the Dirty Three and Little Red from the comfort of my tent.
Bunny got his/her first bit of festival merch, it was way too cute to pass up on -



I'm really starting to really show in the belly stakes now. Sheesh, If I'm this big already I hate to think how big I will be at the end!! I've barely put on any weight, but nothing fits me anymore. Maxi Dresses will be my best friend over summer I think :). Here's my first belly pic anyway...


Good news is, I'm starting to feel little flutters, not very often, but sometimes it feels like there's definately something bouncing away in there. How cute! That's all from me and Bunny now.
