MERRY X-MAS!! / FELIZ NAVIDAD / GOD JUL!


Eva & Christer at home - 24th of December 2010

140 days left... Friday 24th of December 2010 - 5 months today!

24th of December 2010  - Merry Christmas!!

20 weeks / 5 months today. Would not say that time is flying (May seems too far away!) but here we are. The baby is abotut 16.5 cm today and very active. Eva has a hard time sleeping sometimes, Amelia is kicking about a lot! Nothing I can feel though, not yet... But I can feel the "cluck, cluck, cluck" inside the belly, like bubbling water. That is Amelia moving around, amazing!

Tuesday 21st of December 2010: New weight

New weight today: 70.2 kg.

Slow and normal increase, definitely no need to panic.

21st of December 2010: The Heartmaker - sold!

Tuesday 21st of December 2010: Today we sold our bookstore. It´s a pitty but it was impossible to continue with it. Too much work and Eva can definitely not work at the moment, and less 10-12 hours per day, 7 days per week. It has been an amazing experience though: 4 years of incredible success, utter despair, up´s & down´s, new experiences and many, may new friends. Let´s celebrate and start thinking about new businesses!

We went to Carmona to celebrate Cajsa´s birthday and being at "Teatro del Arte", I think I felt the first kick! It´s hard to tell since I don´t know how it should feel but Eva felt it all too well, it was an enormous kick! I think Amelia was not too happy with the noise and the smoke at the bar. We must realize that party time is over...

Let´s see if I can feel another kick soon to confirm!

We´ve got buns in the oven!!

Wednesday 15th of December 2010 - 18 weeks and 5 days (149 days left)


It´s a girl! / Es una niña! / Det är en tjej!




New ultrasound today and finally we got the confirmation: IT´S A GIRL!! Mummy was right, as always! She will be called Amelia Tatiana Heljestrand.


Everything looks perfect, God, what a relief!! We were a bit worried, too long between the appointments and as Eva has not felt anything yet one wonders: Is everything really OK in there? But in the end everything looks just fine, both with the baby and the mother. Amelia´s heartbeat is good and she weighs 276 grams today, all in order! She was moving around  A LOT, making somersaults and kicking and boxing. She looks really healthy! The gynaecologist is 99% sure it´s a girl, and she says she never made a mistake so far in her career. We are so extremely happy!

Painting & organizing the baby room, and waiting for the first kick...

Eva has been painting leafs in the baby room and now she is mounting a piece of furniture from IKEA. We are now in the 19th week and waiting for that very longed for first kick. The baby is about 13-15 cm and weighs around 200 grams. It still has to put on 15 times of its actual weight!

No real news. Eva keeps growing but now she feels OK most of the days. Some days she feels a bit sick in the evening/at night but nothing like the first 3 months. She also sleeps quite well, but with 3 pillows!

One thing: It´s too long between the ultrasounds! I´d like to see the baby every week!
