Past the half way mark!

At nearly 21 weeks, I'm pleased to say I'm past the halfway mark and am no longer feeling yuck as all the morning sickness (or all day in my case) seems to be gone. Apart from the odd foot (or other pointy bit) up under my ribs I'm enjoying this while I can still sleep (mostly), swim (slowly), and walk (waddle) and love that it hasn't been too hot (yet) this Summer. My blood pressure was down to normal last doctor's visit (after being very high for quite a while) and all went well at the scan, so now it's all about regular visits to my team of midwives and lots of nasty needles! Because I have O negative blood, I need to have regular Anti-D injections, and being a Winter baby, need to have a 'flu shot (both have changed since having Patrick and Lauren) . Other than that, hopefully everything else will continue to go well - only 136 days to go!
