Pregnancy milestones

When it comes to my job for many of my colleagues, the word 'milestone' strikes dread into the heart with the knowledge of late nights and LOTS of hard work ahead of you.  Pregnancy milestones however tend to be the talk of mothers for years to come, something we reflect back on... and in my opinion - if you are the slightest bit normal, find them harder and harder to recall as time goes by and one baby is perhaps followed by another!

This is one of the main reasons I decided to blog throughout this pregnancy.  I wanted to be able to look back and clearly remember the key milestones of what most likely will be my last pregnancy.  As a mother of 2 daughters already, I wanted to be able to share with them what it is like to carry a baby, and to share with others interested the good, the bad, the amazing and the damn right painful wonders of being pregnant and giving birth.

I am conscious of the fact that I didn't do this with my first 2 children though and so I have decided that perhaps a table, showing the milestones for all 3 of my pregnancies would be a good idea.  It will also demonstrate quite clearly just how much can slip from the memory once motherhood kicks into full swing!
