Our baby has grown so much since the last time we saw him/her. ☺️ this scan has pushed me forward 2 days. So I thought I was 11wks and 3 days and now they’ve put me at 11wks and 5 days. Got another scan on Monday, be interesting to see if it stays the same or if we get moved back again!

Forgot to post this the other day from our scan! They didn't really say a lot because I was only 9wks 5 days (which was bang on my calculations anyways) so next scan is the 6th Feb. Hopefully everything is alright when we go for checks then!

21.1.17 10 weeks pregnant 👶🏼 Had my scan this week at 9wks 5 days, measured exactly how far along I thought I was. Now waiting for our scan on the 6th Feb! Still doesn't seem real 😳

14.1.17 Forgot to post on Thursday for my '9 week' post. Got my scan this Thursday coming up to check how far along I actually am.😬 super excited to see our little baby but, can't help feel really nervous at the same time in case we get there and told there's nothing there or I've miscarried. Just have to have all fingers and toes crossed I guess! Don't want to jinx myself but I'm feeling pretty good compared to my pregnancy with Maisie.

8weeks! *When I'm captioning these as how many weeks they are, at this point I am just guessing! The scan will soon tell.* Had my bloods this week, also had my first Midwife appointment but my actual midwife was off sick so I won't meet her until my 16wk appointment. Can't believe you go so long without seeing them again! Anyways she forgot to test me for Strep B after I mentioned that they knew I had Strep B with Maisie and 'forgot' to tell me so therefore I didn't receive any treatment during pregnancy or labour which may of resulted in Maisie being seriously poorly or a lot worse, still born. After stressing this to her she just forgot! Going to book my scan today as I wasn't on the system the other day to book it. Sickness is still there, really intense in the evenings making it super difficult working. 😩

7wks.

Made it to 7wks feeling okay.. does anyone know how to cure dizziness in pregnancy? 😩 every time I get up I go all hot, vision goes funny and I feel like like I'm about to collapse. First midwife appointment on Tuesday next week. 😊

Someone was grumpy this morning, can you tell? Lol. Had to take Daddy to work for 7.30am and lately Maisie's been sleeping in till 8/8.40am the last week or two so being woken up at 7.15 this morning was a shock for her. 😅

hi, i noticed in your before and after that you had a tattoo. did you see any noticeable or negative changes in the quality of your tattoo as the result of the weight loss?

Hi! I heard a lot about people loosing weight and their tattoo going weird. Mine however was fine! I only had mine done a month of so before I even started my diet so I didn't have it long either. Not sure if that has anything to do with it?

[expectingmumma]

you look great! always have! how did you end up dropping the weight?

Aw thank you! I was due to go on holiday to Greece and had such motivation to drop my weight before we went. I just went to the gym, took walks to places instead of my car and ate a lot less! Also calorie counted 😊

Think I'm 5wks today. Although (a bit of a debate) on a mums chat and advice page they all thought this was bump over bloat. So I'm wondering if I'm further along than I think?

Since being off here I have been on an amazing adventure in losing weight. Managed to loose 2.5 stone which is 33lb's! Here's to some inspiration for the mumma's out there who want to lose their mummy tummy!

Haven't posted in forever, but here's to next year! We found out we are expecting our second baby ❤️
