A mad dash to the birth centre!

We had a bit of a fright this morning. Bump has been very quiet over the last couple of days at first i wasn't worried but this morning decided to ring the midwives who wanted me to get straight down to the birth centre where i'm booked to have bump. It was a bit of a panic as i needed to get hold of Phil but didn't have his works number just his mobile. I managed to get hold of him and he was a total star, was here within 10 minutes and whisked me off.
We got to the birth centre and i was taken straight into a room to be examined and to have bumps heartbeat listened in to. There was a massive sigh of relief when his heartbeat came booming into the room, i was so happy i cried! To cut a very long story short she listened for a while and all seems to be fine and i've been told to rest which is difficult when you're up 3 times a night to have a wee! The reason he isn't moving is because he has moved into a funny position and i have something called anterior placenta which can also stop me feeling him all of the time. I am so reassured now and the birth centre is so lovely and homey, no doctors or drugs, all being well i can have him there rather then hospital.
Phew that was long! Now on a much lighter note, meet tonights meal, homemade pizza(i cheated by buying the base!). I'm also baking bread tonight, wish me luck!
