its a boy!! :-)

So had the scan last Monday and found out its a .......’BOY!!!’   so pleased!!  I wasn’t worried what sex it was as long as it was healthy and he is so all good J
We had two scans because the women couldn’t get a good picture at first because he was laying on its front...lazy little lad!  Was not sure whether to find out the sex because people were saying it can ruining it but it prepares us to get clothes and set up his room when we finally sort housing out.





So weird looking at a screen and thinking ‘that’s my little man on their’ it’s such a surreal experience and one I will never forget, think my mum was hoping for a girl with my family dominated by men.... I have two brother and she always hoped for a girl but she seemed happy that everything was ok with him. I had a deal with kirsty from the start that if it’s a boy I would choose the name and if it was a girl she would choose.... but we both had to agree, so been thinking of names all this week and it’s very difficult.  Everyone has said that you can have a name but when he comes out and you see him he might not look like that name which is hard to imagine....... but I have a middle name I would like to give him and that is after my uncle (dads brother) who was taking from us very suddenly and when I was only young, but my dad loved him to pieces and I know he would be very happy if he had his name was that of his first grandson and i think little man will be proud to have that name when i tell him how much of a good bloke he was J

Been reading pregnancies books this week and been trying to take in as much as possible, it’s not all good reading but i find it very interesting and I’m even giving information to kirsty which she didn’t know..... check me out!!! J   all about how dilated a women has to be in early stages and things i can do to help at the birth. We have talked about what painkillers she would like and what sort of birth which I think is helping kirsty with all the worry of the pregnancy.  Want to be here for her for all the worries and questions she has to ask and be able to answer them with the right information, because two heads are better than one!!

Kirsty is now starting to show she is pregnant now with a little bump on her, really weird! We are starting to go out every couple of weeks together or with friends for a meal or cinema because we know when little man is here, all our time will be spent with him so trying to get as much time together as we can. But i think the arrival of little man will bring us closer together (i hope!), we have a lot of people around us who will help and you don’t realise how many until something like this happens. The support we are receiving is unbelievable and like to thank everyone for that!!

Hopefully posting on here every few weeks to tell you things that has happened so keep tuned! J   

Thanks for reading speak soon!
