Ive just had my appointment with the community midwife at 18 weeks, all she did was cheked my bp, asked about my health and had a listern to the babys heartbeat which I heard for the first time and wasnt expecting it, so a nyc suprise at the appointment.

My next hospital appointment is at 20 weeks for the anomaly scan, dreading that scan coz if something is wrong or not developed right, this is when they will pik it up.

Dont be afraid.. inshaAllah everything will be fine.. my 20 weeks scan was the best thing that ever happened to me and I was sooo looking forward to it.. thats where they told me the gender too.. if you want to find out the gender of the baby, 20 weeks scan is where they will tell you!!

dumdeedum.. my midwife had told me to eat whatever I wanted or felt like during the first trimester.. she said if I wanted to eat fries three times a day, I could.. but that was also because I was throwing up a lot and couldnt keep anything down.. she just wanted me to eat whatever I oculd keep in there!!

I suggest munching on fruits.. now in my second trimester I eat a lot of fruits and raw veggies..my favorites are carrots, cherries, pears, apples, cantaloupe, green pepper!! I eat them all day long and the regular ghar ka khana!!

ps: I also two hard boiled eggs everyday.. I never had this many eggs in my life ever before!! so eat whatever you can and whatever you want.. now is the time
