Woke up this morning to Emily dropping things in the kitchen - she's soooo tired. Two very late nights on the trot with reharsals for La Belle Helene and we've a weeks run to get through yet.....sheessh. Once I was up and about and unfamiliar feeling washed over me......nausea.....wow I though she'd buzzed off! Anyway I got to work as quick as poss and tucked into my Special K....mmmmm.....love it. Felt loads better for eating it and the nausea buggered off again. Good.
Mega busy day - loads of exam papers are arriving now and fortunately the caretakers are very sweet and lugged them all up to my office. Obv I'm not even attempting to carry them....that reminded me that I've still not had my risk assessment done. Yes, its common sense what not to do but as my assistant is recovering from an hysterectomy (sp?) who's gonna do the stuff I cant?? Or more to the point - how long will it take for someone to do it....
Fortunately I had some help today so a very productive day all round - happy with that. I think I'll keep my trap shut for the rest of the week about the risk assessment then I'll remind them who the union rep is.....
I havent got much of an appetite - not because I feel sick either. Just not very hungry - wonder if thats ok......
I was sitting reading B&B and I felt a funny sensation in the left lower side of my tummy. A kind of gentle movement simliar to wind only this time it didnt end with a smell......I wonder if that was the start of movements??? Didnt last long and I dont think it was wind.
Overall I'm feeling much more relaxed about things. I've still got this cold and I havent had any paracetamol since yesterday lunch time but I'm on the mend.
I wish I could have another dog......I've more chance of plaiting snot.....

The lady said I was 'negative for Downs with a 1:5800 risk and negative for Edwards with 1:50000 risk'. I cant tell you how pleased I am.
Its another little milestone and a weight off my mind. We discussed what we would do if we got a bad result and I'll be honest, I dont really know.... I wish I could be one of those women who say 'Oh it wouldnt matter, I'd still continue' but I'm not. I'm not saying I'm sure I wouldn't continue though - after seeing my baby on the scans and thinking I might actually be feeling it move it would be an incredibly difficult decision to make.
Anyway - thank you God - I dont have to even contemplate that now.
I spoke to the midwife. She congratulated me and I asked if there was much point having the triple blood test now. She told me that there wasnt as the NT testing was more accurate and indepth so it would really be a waste of resources. I mentioned that I will be 20 weeks at half term and we re going away and would I be able to change the scan date in the event of it falling at half term. She said they aren't great at getting the scan dates out to people and it might be best to check with the hospital. I rang them and they havent got me on the system for the 20 scan yet so I'll leave it a week and ring again.
I think I finally feel like this is going to happen now. We've got over a couple of the early hurdles and it feels good.
