Hi sweetheart,
We've been to Faye's school summer fayre tonight and then to see Nanny and Grandad as Grandad has just come back out of hospital today after an operation. He is looking really well and he is on the mend, we just hope the operation was a success and he will be ok from here on.
They couldn't believe how much my belly has grown since the wedding, neither could Faye. It is a proper baby bump now, I'm looking unmistakably pregnant which is nice. I've started to feel the baby moving this week too which is fantastic to get to that stage again, especially so much earlier, but it's also scary too as soon the pressure will be on me to monitor those movements and make sure the baby is ok, and that terrifies me if I'm honest. I'm sure I'll be ok though once that stage actually comes and my confidence grows again.
The baby has been wriggling about every half hour this afternoon! That's the most I've felt it in one day so far. I'm feeling a lot more flutters this time than I did with you, probably because I've felt it early as I know what I'm feeling for this time having already carried you. A week after my first proper flutters with you I felt full blown kicks! I would think I'll have a few weeks of flutters with this one though before I'm far enough along to feel proper kicking. It's just nice to already be feeling something.
At the 12 week scan it was wriggling around like I don't know what, so I think it's been officially named Fidget now until we know what it is! It doesn't seem right to call it Bump, you were Bump.
I can't believe it's only been a week since Daddy and I got home from honeymoon! Andrew and Mel's wedding last Saturday was fantastic, it was so nice that it was at the hotel where your Daddy and I first got together. We had our photo taken in the very spot where your Daddy first kissed me all those years ago!
It's back to reality now, but it is a lovely reality! I absolutely LOVE being Mrs Dawson! :)
Life is treating us kindly at the moment, and as much as of course we miss you terribly and wish that you could be here on earth with us, everything else is just perfect and we're very happy. I just hope it continues that way, Daddy and I get scared to be happy in case we come crashing back down with a bang again.
Thinking of you loads lately and missing you as always. Daddy and I and Faye love you so much Baby Girl xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
