Well, Harriet is 4 months old next week, and i just dont know where that time has gone... she is just a smashing baby, we had a rough couple of weeks where she got really constipated and then wouldnt feed as a result, but after a trip to the doctors and some latulose she has got herself moving and is now feeding so well we have upped her milk to 6 oz!!! hooooray! She weighed 11lbs and 7oz last week so still putting on but a slow grower and a shortie like her parents!!
I have celebrated my first mothers day. When I compare this year to where I was a year ago, The difference could be measured in miles, last year i was in the middle of IVF and this year my baby was rolling around in bed with me and Adam. It was a lovely day and I was given a mumy card and a photo frame with 'I love my mum' and a piccy of me and Harriet! it was the best feeling in the world....
I am a bit nervous as i am approaching IV time, it has been a world record for me - 5 months and after much uming and ahing i am going in for 4-5 days then maybe come home on home IVs depending how i get on. I will be taking Harriet in with me, there is no way i would go in without her, i am very lucky though and my hospital allow me to take her in with me which i am sooooo grateful for!!! watch this space for how we get on...
We have the vicar coming round tomorrow to organise Harriets christening, which i hope will take place in early june and hopefully at a local church in the village.... i hope so anyway, i have family in Ireland and my cousin is having Harriets gown made in ireland in irish crochet and i cant wait it will be a lovely heirloom for her in years to come, when her children get christened.... i hope to make every effort to be around then....
