a mixed weekend

Friday was great, we went to the hospital and i am still nbot having to have blood thinning injections.... good for me, as i am not into the whole fill your body with every known chemical to man thing... and we had the 20 week scan. the bean has:
2 arms
2legs
a brain the right size
eyes and nose and mouth and ears
kidneys
a heart
a bladder
a stomach
ickl ickle feet
all the right bones

the bean is just the right size and everything is great. my placenta is lying a little low (like a criminal! haha) but we get another scan to make sure that has sorted itself out in 12 weeks. (when i will be massive)

the exciting news it that they *think* it is boy.... a BOY!! I made a boy!!!!! OHMIGOD! Now i am resiging myself to a life time of smelly socks and football. dave times two. (not that he smells.) mind you, i dont know if poor david deserved a girl, can you imagine 2 of me??! (apparntly i am hard to live with.)

This is so exciting. mind, they went 100% sure, so hold of on the blue knitting.

then on saturday a mad women drove intot he side of my car at a roundabout. no one was hurt but i cried for about 4 hours in total. it turns out i dont do well with shock. i had just about recovered (more than i can say for my car door) whn my brothers girlfriend asked if the seat belt has dug in on the impact. it had. i rang the midwife and had to go straigt to the labour ward to be checked out. it was the longest and most nervous drive ever. thankfully, the bean (who now needs suggestions for boys names) is fine and we heard the heartbeat.... am so relieved, dont think i would cope well if any thing was to happen to him now. as a side lide, i think david may have been somone who dealt with panic in his last life, as he stayed cool as the proverbial cuecumber. thank you david.
