I am fine thank you. 20 weeks on thursday, it really is flying by! got 20 week scan on weds!!
When are you thinking of going on maternity leave?
I have provisionally agreed with work to leave on 1st august when i will be just over 30 weeks and have 4 weeks annual leave, then start maternity leave at nearly 35 weeks! it will soon be here! arghh!!

Anyway, went in to see him yesterday and he said about sorting maternity leave. I finish for the summer on 19th July and I originally wanted to go back for a week after the summer but head has said he would rather I didnt as ill be 33 weeks then and he thinks that will be too late (he has non id twins who are now 24 but they were born at 31 weeks so hes being careful). So, I will actually finish work on 19th July but my maternity leave wont start until the 3rd September! I was really pleased as everyone has been talking on here about beginning mat leave with annual holiday but I dont get the choice when my annual holiday is (!) so ill actually finish at 26 weeks, but mat leave wont start until 33 weeks.
I cant wait till next Thursday as, although I keep telling myself im not worried, im actually petrified that something is wrong! I cant sleep and keep bursting into tears. I cant find any info, from mw, gynae consultants, internet etc for anyone who is still bleeding as every thing leads towards bleeding for a few days, not nearly 4 weeks! I would love some answers and im hoping the consultant can give me them, and put our minds at rest. Sorry, got a bit teary there!!!
Anyway, so pleased you are nearly at 20 weeks! Have you bought much yet? Other than nursery furniture (Ikea trip!) we havent bought anything big, but we have bought lots and lots of small bits.

My two are growing very well though, same rate as single babies would so i'm worried exactly how big i'm gonna get now!
