Picked a Name
I can't remember the exact date we felt like we definitely had a name but it wasn't long ago...

Husband/Partner Felt Baby Move for the First Time
During the Community Shield match between Man Utd and Wigan Michael felt the baby kick! It was halfway through the first half and the score was 1-0 to Utd at the time.

Found Out Baby's Gender
Today we had the 20 week anomaly scan. Everything was perfect with the baby which was what we were most interested to hear. We did find out the gender though and...... IT'S A GIRL!
Another little girl, hopefully this one will get to come home.

Received Harmony Test results
They were negative! This means the chance of T21 is better than 1/10000.

Heard Baby's Heartbeat for the First Time
We surprisingly got to hear the baby's heartbeat at our first appointment at the Fetal Medicine Centre, Harley Street, London. We were there for our Harmony test.

Had the Harmony Test
We had the Harmony test at the Fetal Medicine Centre, Harley Street, London. Our first baby had Down's Syndrome so we wanted to rule it out as early as possible with this pregnancy. Test results on 11th June 2013

First Ultrasound
We had a reassurance scan today and found out I'm 6 weeks + 4 days rather than 6 days. EDD changed to 23rd December but it might change again at my next scans!They couldn't print the picture because the printer was broken so we had to take a photograph of the screen.

Announced Pregnancy to Family
13th/14th April 2013Sneakily told our families via Christmas cards (in April!) with a picture of the digital test glued inside with "Due 21st December 2013" written underneath.
Naughty naughty! They were all so ecstatic! It was well worth telling them like that!

Told Husband/Partner
Michael knew that I was going to do the test. It was a few days early so he was a bit unsure about me doing it. I did it and waited for the result in the bathroom. First the screen said "pregnant" and I had to wait a little bit longer for the conception estimation of "1-2" weeks. Spot on!I ran screaming, shaking and crying back to him in the bedroom, jumped on him and cried! I was so happy. This was a great but scary day!

First Positive Pregnancy Test
I did a digital test at 12DPO because my breasts felt different this cycle (don't normally feel them at all) and it was positive!
