A second rainy day and running out of indoor options I resorted to the jidokan at the end of our road. We really should use it more often because it has a good selection of toys and there are lots of trikes and ride-on toys in the gym hall. It was hard to tear Emily away, even with the lure of many muddy puddles to splash in, Peppa Pig-style.
Today it is 9 weeks since I had a period, so I really am wondering now if this is the end of our hopes for a sibling for Emily. I have a list of minor medical complaints to bombard a doctor with when I go home, and this will have to wait until then as I have no intention of clocking up a huge bill here to be told what I suspect already. We went over to Julia's to play in the afternoon and I have to admit that I am finding it harder and harder to be around pregnant women now, as the chances for me recede. Naturally I have thought about it a lot, and it is the amazing feeling of new life growing inside that is what I wish for more than anything else. Plus, lately when we have been out for family day trips it seems really sad for Emily to only have us for company and play.
