17 Weeks...

We are 17+ weeks now, and time seems to be flying by, next week I go on a plane to see my grandmother who has never seen me pregnant and my mother, I am looking forward to it immensely. My only problem is that I am leaving my darling Bom behind with his Daddy for 4 days!! The longest I have ever left him, and it is going to rip my heart apart :( However it will be good for them, DH will get to see that I don't have it so easy, and Bom will get to spend some quality time with his Dad.

I'm a bit scared of how my grandmother is going to react, she had a stroke many years ago and remembers me as a child, telling her that I am married, have a child and another on the way every half an hour is going to be hard, sad but happy at the same time I think.

I am so excited to see my mother though, I haven't seen her since March, and I struggle here without her, but knowing that I get to see her next week, and that she will be here when Bub is due makes me extremely happy as well. 2 and a bit days together, so little but it means a lot.

Bom is making more leaps with his speech which is fantastic, we are waiting for an appointment from Audiology to see whether or not he will be getting grommets which I hope will also help his speech/hearing.

No joy on the toilet training front as yet, he doesn't seem interested and I am not going to force him until he is ready.

8 days until I go away, 18 days until flavour time, 23 weeks until baby time :)

Hope you are having a fabulous day!
