Yesterday was the most active bubs has ever been. It was truly amazing, it kicked non-stop all day long. I was quite stressed yesterday, which is probably why. I had some stuff going on with a forum I am a long-tem member of (I was a moderator), where I was demoted because of my "extreme" homebirthing views. I was pretty shocked and upset, and I think bubby sensed this and was probably flooded with stress hormones, and thus actually in distress itself (I am so sorry, little bubby). Today it's been fairly quiet though, and I think it's probably exhausted from yesterday. I hope it's having a good rest and having some lovely dreams.
Our scan is in 10 days, and I am thrilled but nervous. I feel we are invading bubby's personal space, a place we're not meant to see, not supposed to be privy to. There are also, naturally, concerns that there may be something wrong physically with bubby, though I'd rather find that out now then at the birth itself. We *will* be finding out the sex, though because we want to keep it a secret from family and friends, I might not post it on here. My blog is public so I'm not sure who reads it. We'll see! I do want to share it, though :)
I've only had two gender dreams thus far: the first, we had a perfectly beautiful little girl. The second, I gave birth to gorgeous non-identical twin boys. So apparently I have no intuition whatsoever (a shame, as I hoped I might) and have no inkling of what bubs is. Can't wait to find out.
Malaysia in 6wks. Currently trying to organise flight insurance. Looks like I won't be able to get cover for my pregnancy without going through a medical and filling out loads of ridiculous forms, and then paying a hugely ridiculous sum for said cover. We'll be there 6 nights, and the only thing that can go wrong is I stillbirth, as I'll be 21-22 weeks, so I would deal with that if it happened. Otherwise we can get normal cover for both of us for about $90, which sounds okay.
Also, we might be moving to Canberra - eek! More on that next week.
