I'm coming to the end of my 12th week. Life has been super crazy organising our move to Canberra and finishing work. I've just driven to Canberra from Perth for 5 days. I've never felt so wasted in my life! I've found a GP down the road from my new house and I have my referral to see an Obstetrician. Now, I just need to get an appointment to see him.
It was a bit of a pain moving when I was 12 weeks, but there wasn't really much I could do about finding a hospital or an OB from Perth. My Perth GP just told me to wait until I got here.
As my screening blood tests had already been done for IVF, I will just get tested for diabetes on a fasting blood test on Monday. And hopefully I can get an appointment with my OB next week! They have to do a bit of squeezing to fit in a time to see me, as I should really have booked my appointment 2 or 3 weeks ago. But there wasn't much else I could do!
Otherwise, my belly is slowly growing. I had to buy my first pair of maternity jeans the other week. It was an emergency purchase during my lunch break as the jeans I was wearing were getting uncomfortably tight. It still just feels like a fat belly at the moment though. My husband was a little disappointed it wasn't bigger when he saw me for the first time in 3 weeks. I may have been going on a bit about how huge I was getting. Well, it's reassuring that I'm still a modest size for now.
There'll be more to write soon. Stay tuned.
