Update

September 2nd, 2011 at 03:29 pm

I seen my midwife for the first time this week. I had to finish work early, but I still got paid for the rest of my shift. Hubby came with me. It was an hour full of questions and taking blood, checking weight etc. Over here you have to carry your own notes about with you - I don't know why. So, I now have a folder full of my notes and another folder of suggested reading.

My scan's booked for next week, so I may be further on than I thought. We'll know on Thursday when they can give us an exact date.

We're both trying to settle in here. Hubby ordered new furniture for our room that we can take with us when we get our own place. Right now, there's not enough space for all of our clothes and I'm still in the middle of unpacking and having a clear out. If I wasn't so tired all the time I would have had it done by now. The furniture arrives next week. When it's here we're swapping rooms with my mum, who has the biggest room.

Financial wise, not much is going on. The midwife gave me a folder and spoke about vouchers I might be entitled to. We're both working so we're not entitled to anything. The only freebie I got was two sachets of herbal tea, and a coupon for 60p off appletiser.

I'm off to catch up on your blogs now.

    It's really interesting to hear how your pregnancy is handled by midwives instead of the doctors. It seems so different than the US's policies.

    I hope you're getting pleny of rest this weekend!
