Shopping...

Today we have been shopping (again). We waited a lot longer this time and now we are wondering how we are going to get everything in order before leaving for baby delivery and pickup.

Today we bought a nursingtable, some linnen and a pram. I like the pram a lot. You can use it to lay down, switch and then use it to sit in, switch and then use it to put your carseat on. Perfect.

New scan today

Got a new scan today saying that our child has grown a lot theese last weeks.

S/he is now 33 weeks 5 days
Weight: 2268 g (+-12%)

They have changed our delivery-date from september 20 to september 12.

Everything is going so fast theese days. We want to book our flights, getting our Visas and telling our employes that we need to leave...

In Sweden we can´t get our Visas if we don´t have the flyingtickets booked so we just have to wait...

We are just back from a week in our caravan. We have been visiting a small town called Lidköping. It was nice but the weather has been horrible. Rain, rain, rain...

Until next time...

Less than two months!

Looking at the counter on my own blog makes me realize that time flies! It´s less than two months left of our 40-week long wait (i.e. 8 years).

If everything goes by the book we have less than 40 days before we leave Sweden for India!

Our next update is in 9 days, waiting...

Good luck to everyone and specielly to the IP´s being in Delhi.

Until next time...

A nice summerday

We have had a most lovely summerday today. Just before writing we went to a lake to take an evening swim.

We got an update from India today saying:
28 weeks and 4 days
Heartrate 144 bpm
Cephalic presentation
Weight 1193 g (+-12%)

We have decided not to buy anything before getting to week 32. But sometimes it is hard not to. We saw the most beatyful baby furniture in a store a couple of days ago. We have bought one thing, a wardrobe.

My intension is to make it like a house. With windows, door and roof. I´ve seen some VERY goodlooking furnitures at a store in Stockholm. I think they import their things from Dutch company.Check out their homepage: www.systerlycklig.se and get a lot of ideas.

Until next time...smile

Hi all,
Got a lot of pictures from Dr Shivani a couple of days ago. It is lovely to see the belly growing and showing.

We are entering our third trimester tomorrow and everything is going so well. According to Dr Shivani both surrogate and baby are "happy".

In a couple of weeks they will do a new scan of our lovely baby. If I don´t remember wrong there will be some 3-D photos then. Can´t wait...

Until next time...

Hi everybody

We got a report yesterday from Dr Shivani and everything is progressing well. Some weeks ago they made the Triple Marker test and everything seemed to be normal and fine.

It is nervwrecking this journey. Unfortunatly I can´t get our latest attempt out of my head. In a week we enter the week that our last SM misscarried and it´s like sitting on needles. When the phone rings you...

But this is a total different journey, I know. And everything is just NORMAL! But I wish it was September.

22 weeks 1 day
HC 192 mm
Weight 469 g (+ - 12%)
Heart rate: 144 Bpm
