I set the tripod up to take these and they aren't very good. Will get Rob to do some when he gets home, so they are just temporary.
Been feeling Dollop move quite a bit. He tends to have quiet times and awake times. Not really any sort of pattern yet. Ellis was always moving! I'm sure he just didn't sleep.
The movements and kicks from Dollop feel very different from Ellis. Dollop tends to spin around quite a lot so I will get a kick up, then down, then left and right, all within a couple of minutes. Ellis just used to sit in one position. I can't really explain it properly but it is just different somehow.
Weighed this morning, just out of interest and I'm 12st 12lb. Which means I've roughly put on 1st 4lbs so far.
On http://www.babycentre.co.uk/ it says the following on weight gain during pregnancy.
• At birth, your baby will weigh approximately 3,300g (7.3lb). ELLIS WAS 7LB 13 1/2OZ
• During pregnancy, the muscle layer of your womb (uterus) grows dramatically and weighs an extra 900g (2lb).
• The placenta (afterbirth), which keeps your baby nourished, weighs 600g (1.3lb).
• Your breasts weigh an extra 400g (0.9lb).
• Your blood volume increases and weighs an extra 1,200g (2.6lb)
• You have extra fluid in your body, and amniotic fluid around the baby, weighing 2,600g (5.7lb).
• Plus, you will lay down some fat during your pregnancy to provide you with extra energy for breastfeeding. This comes to about 2,500g (5.5lb).
So, by the end of pregnancy you will weigh about 11,000g (24.2lb) more than you did before you became pregnant. This is an average weight gain but of course, you're not an average woman. And no woman is. Our pregnancy weight gain estimator can give you a more personalised indication of what you might gain. The amount of weight you should gain will depend on how heavy you were before you became pregnant.
Using their weight gain estimator the results are as follows (click on it to enlarge):
So far so good then.
