My Pregnancy

So July 2012 I was up the hospital and I had to take a pregnancy test to see if I was pregnant. The nurse was all excited and she told me I was pregnant! I was gonna be a mummy!

After we got out there nanny Chris was with me and she was very excited about the news. Your dad had just left to go away for a long weekend with work. So I called him to tell him the news. I expected him to go silent but his first words were..."yeeeaaaah!". Phew he was happy too.

At 7 weeks my tummy was pretty big so I was taken into hospital for an early scan to check if I was carrying twins, luckily not I only had the one. You was just a fast grower! 

After 3 months we told the world our good news. So many people were happy for us. All said we would make great parents.

Pretty quick I booked in for an early gender scan with a 3D scan, unfortunately you wasn't looking so the 3D picture was crap :( but we was told we had a little girl, our little princess! I was over the moon!

As the months went by I was up and down the hospital for scans and tests and to see the midwife, all to check both you and myself were doing well. And we were. My only problem was I had SPD, something that makes my hips go when pregnant meaning that for no reason I would be walking then stumble, it was as though you was leaning on a nerve. Not long before Xmas I developed gestational diabetes, this meant I had to inject insulin every morning and night till you were born. My legs were so bruised by then end of it! 

The day came I could choose when I wanted to be induced, I chose the 12th February in hope that you'll arrive within 24 hours so you didn't share your birthday with Valentine's Day.

Love Mum❤️

How I Met Your Dad

For many years I had been going to car meets and shows. These meets were about modified cars and people who have an interest in them. I joined a few car clubs over the years, first a group called CCUK, they stopped after a few years but I met some lovely people there. Then there was one called Rev-illusion. I stuck with this club for over 5 years.

Anyway, at this club I was a promo girl so I spoke to everyone and made people feel welcome. One day a man turns up and starts chatting to his friends (they knew him as he'd been around years even part of CCUK), however I had never seen him before. I said to my friends "his hot, he looks like Paul walker, I'm gonna have that man one day" to which my friends replied "if anyone can you can". 

By the way, Paul walker is a great actor, just watch the fast and furious films.

Anyway a few days later I get a friend request on Facebook from this guy, his names David. We speak for a few months, flirting and eventually in January 2012 we get together as a couple. Things weren't the best at the start, he left me, he said things were going to fast. I knew then I did love him, it had only been a month or so but I knew I loved him. A week passed and he said he does love me too. Yay!

Literally a few months down the line I fell pregnant with you! Back to the start of the year I honestly couldn't see me and David becoming parents so soon, but I'm so happy we did! I wouldn't change it for the world! 

Love Mum❤

It all started in July 1989

Mummy was born on 26th July 1989. I was born with a life threatening illness called Cystic Fibrosis. This meant my life was limited compared to everyone elses. As i grew up I was told id be lucky to live past 21 and id be lucky to be a mummy.

I grew up keeping on track with my health and making sure I took all my medication. I wasnt in hospital much so I was lucky.

I reached the age of 18 and I became very unwell overnight, but being the fighter mummy is, I got back to normal in 6 weeks. (mummy is where you get your determination from).

I turnt 21 and I was still doing very well, so id defied doctors expectations already. Im a stubborn person, you get this from me too. hehe. When I turnt 23 I fell pregnant with you. Everything from there on was my reason to be well enough to watch you grow up!

 

Lots of Love Mum ❤
