Baby has arrived!


2006-12-06  (38 weeks)
Wednesday - 6 December
So we are still waiting in eager anticipation.  On my check up on Monday my midwife said that he is lying so low down she can't believe I haven't gone into labour yet!  We are all reall excited and can't wait.  I'm really uncomfortable now, I struggle to sleep and my back is killing me.

Lila fell against the corner of the table today - luckily it didn't need stitches but she has this round hole in her head my poor baby!  She was very brave though.

So December has finally arrived.  the year and my pregnancy has gone by so fast!!!  I'm really enjoying my time at home - it's nice to just lounge around and do nothing!  Christian and I are bonding nicely he responds to my touch and we play little games through my tummy.  I can't wait for him to come.  I picture him with blonde hair for some reason...I can't wait to see what he looks like and to see what he's like.

The waiting is the worst part but I guess I shouldn't wish time away - before I know it he'll be born and I'll wish him back inside me again!

Thursday - 30 November 2006
So I've been on maternity leave since the 15th of November and we didn't have an internet connection at home.  We finally got hooked up on the weekend just passed yay!  My boy is lying in place for birth according to the midwife - she says if he goes any lower down he'll be born lol!  But yet we are still waiting...I thought I was going in labour earlier this week had irregular cramps, show, runny tummy the works.  But still zip nada nothing!

I am getting slightly impatient now but my boy must rather come when he's good and ready.  Lila is getting really excited.  She wants to know everyday if her brother will be coming today.  She has suddenly shown an interest in feeling him kick and talks to him through my tummy and kisses him through my tummy.  she is so sweet!

We have everything ready for the birth.  Managed to sort the house and all his baby things out within the first week of maternity leave.  The midwife delivered the birthing bath on Monday as well and it's up and ready as well.  So for now we are playing the waiting game...

Friday - 10 November 2006

Only 5 weeks to go!  I haven't updated mainly because we don't have internet at home anymore and it's a bit difficult to update from work.  And also because not much has been happening.

I had a surpise baby shower last Saturday which was really nice - I got some really cute stuff and of course some essentials.  Christian's cot is still not up but at least dh has started painting it.  Sue is very happy with us I had a check up on Monday. 

Dh has been away this whole week - Lila misses him terribly when he's away shame.  At least he'll be home today and he might even fetch her from school, she would really love that.

Christian has been very quiet the last couple of days - I really hope he doesn't come early like everyone seems to be predicting!  I'm going on maternity leave on the 15th and still have so much to do to get everything ready for him.  I can't wait to meet him though :)  I sometimes secretly wish that he could come now so I can hold him...I still have anxiety attacks about the birth but I am going through with the home birth.  Sue assured me that it's all normal to have these feelings because I do know what's coming and there's a lot of subconscious fear as well.  I trust her and she has this amazing way of calming me.  I'm sure everything will be OK.
