This last week has been extremely busy.
First of all, there was Cabaret, which took up every evening, and some afternoons as well. I played clarinet and tenor saxophone in the orchestra, which was quite hard work but lots of fun. I borrowed the tenor from my brother-in-law and don't really want to have to give it back; it's a lovely instrument. I've got to the point in this pregnancy where large, heavy wind instruments are not very easy to play, so that should make it easier.
Yesterday my family came back from Saudi Arabia for the "Summer". I don't think it's stopped raining since their plane landed. At least it's a bit of a novelty for them at the moment.
I had another driving lesson this morning, so the rain was good for me, anyway. It's nice to get lots of practice in in normal driving conditions. For all my previous lessons it seems to have been abnormally sunny.
I'm 25 weeks pregnant today and everything is still going well.

Everything's coming up roses..

I'm twenty-four weeks today! I'm still keeping my fingers crossed but it looks as if everything is going to work out this time. It's all wonderful - I love being pregnant.(Though no doubt I'll love having a baby even more).
I've started driving again now and my new instructor is really good. He doesn't think I'm hopeless, either. I'm just waiting for my test date notification to drop through the door now. I'm not going to start panicking until it does.
Here's to the future!

The Second.
Posted Jun 14, 1999
I'm now back on the internet after only a short while of having my modem unplugged. I really ought to find out how to deal with that sort of thing myself.
I had another appointment with the consultant on Monday. It should have been at 11.15, but we weren't seen until 12.20.
The baby is doing well, and everything looks good with me too. I shall be 23 weeks tomorrow, which is when everything went wrong last time. This time next week I'll be well clear of that time, even by the most pessimistic of the scan dates.
I've just arranged to start driving lessons again. Maybe this time I'll get as far as a test without anything disastrous happening to interrupt the course. I'm quite looking forward to driving again.

The First
Posted Jun 1, 1999
I'm finally able to write in my Journal.
Yesterday my long-suffering husband finally managed to tear himself away from his work and set up this computer for me to use. It took several reminders, but it was a big job since the various components were scattered around the house.
Anyway, it was just in time.
I had a scan today, which was lovely on two counts: I got to look at the baby for a nice long time, and I found out that she's a girl so I can talk about her properly.
I now have a son and a daughter.
