CUBS screening results

I had the CUB screening done at my booking scan. I finally got my results back today. I know I said I wasn't too concerned after the measurement being 1.1mm but I still had the blood results hanging over me. They came back as low risk!! I was expecting a little more in the letter but all it said was the screening came back low risk so no further tests are required. It's fantastic news though and definitely made my day! 


I bought my first pair of maternity jeans today. I was in New Look and a few maternity things were in the sale. The jeans were only £8 reduced from £22. I also bought those bump bands which I wear over my current jeans. This means I can leave my jeans unfastened. They smooth everything over so you can't even tell the jeans aren't fastened when I have a top over the band. The bands were in a pack of three for £5. 



That was a first for me. Actually buying something pregnancy related. I was trying to hold off buying anything for as long as I could but it creates problems when none of my jeans will fasten. Going up a regular size didn't really help - they are big in the all the wrong places. 



I was back seeing my doctor yesterday morning. I've to stop taking the anti-sickness tablets now that I'm able to keep water down. That was fine with me - I didn't feel comfortable taking them to begin with. I know the doctor said they were fine but I worry about everything. She seems to think the hyperemesis will clear up around 16 weeks so here's hoping she is right.
