Where is everyone else at right now? How are things? How much longer?

I prefer to think how far I've come, not how much longer, it sounds so
much better! I'm 14 weeks.

Things are way better than I expected, I think I was at a point of
physical rehab that despite pregnancy I still keep improving physically,
though things have switched a bit, right now the most troublesome
thing is my mid back, when previously my hip was the big deal, though
with surgery having been 13 months ago, it's not all that surprising
that 2 months has made a difference.

I've mostly been focusing on pregnancy, not babies, when I do that, it
gets a bit scary, I am excited, but after a gap and it being unplanned,
the not sleeping, dirty nappies aspect of things is not thrilling!
However I think this will diminish as the reality settles in, which will
probably not really start until I feel movement.

My big decision at the moment is whether or not to have a 2nd trimester
scan, it's so hard to weigh up the numbers, and whatever numbers I do
find, they only deal with one condition, so you can get a feel for
whether it's good or bad to diagnose something in particular, but not
everything all at once. I do know overall it's doesn't improve outcomes,
but that's for a whole population and sometimes you can put yourself
into a subset and the answer might change! We're leaning towards not
doing it and DH is probably more confident about that than me.
Thankfully with insurance rather than nationalised health it's not a
case of here is your offer, if you refuse then you don't get another
chance, so we can change our minds.

Cheers
