Zermatt, my SIL is the person for whom the phrase 'a little knowledge is a dangerous thing' was invented! She does her research, then adamantly believes the first thing she reads and everything else is bollocks. She is also massively into attachment parenting, which is great, but I know I'm going to get this
if I don't co-sleep, or if I ever dared to let my LO whimper without rushing to it. DNiece is nearly 2, still in their room, and if she cries, she gets picked up every time. It works for them, but might not for us and she's the judgiest person I know.
frenetic, that's great they're seeing you so soon, hopefully it will put your mind at rest. It is lovely telling people. I'm 8 weeks Monday, and with no bleeding or anything worrying I'm feeling more confident. Most of the family know now (after FIL kept letting it slip!) and it's nice to feel special and not like it's something which Must be Kept Quiet.
Thinking about it, my dates going on LMP rather than ovulation are 5 days behind (super short cycle), so I'm definitely not going to get my 12 week scan before we break up
I was looking forward to a fuss! Still, by the time I get back I will have scan pics and hopefully a mini-bump to show off in the staff room
they're a lovely bunch, I can't wait to tell them!
