Wow it's a long time since I've used this blog - ekkk! It's because I got to 12 weeks and was able to tell people I was pregnant, which meant that I was able to write on my other blog, the one that everyone knew about. Although I haven't really been blogging too much recently, because most of my online activity has been on Facebook or BabyCentre.

We started our antenatal classes a few weeks ago. This week was the third week, where we learnt more about how the baby is born and the pain relief. The demonstation with the cabbage patch type doll in a bag was quite a reality kick! The reality of how long and tough the whole labour thing is!! I never expected to feel a bit freaked learning about labour, but hey, it's better now than at the time.

Our little one is wriggling and kicking on and off throughout the day now, which is lovely when it's not when I'm trying to go to sleep. Typically the worst experience I've had, was when I was home alone, because Andy was working until midnight and hadn't got home yet, and I was trying to get to sleep, because I had to work at 9am the next morning, after having worked 9-7 that day! As I lay in bed trying to fall asleep little one was doing some weird movements inside me, like lots of small quick movements. It freaked me out a bit, as I've never felt baby do that before. Apparently it's not too weird, as other ladies on BabyCentre said that they'd had it too - it was almost like we'd had the same feeling within a few days of each other!
