39 Weeks!

Wow - I really thought I would have Baby early for some reason and yet here we are at 39 weeks, just one week away from baby's due date. We've been going for walks and I've been bouncing on my birth ball. I get lots of tightenings but no pains yet!

I've been getting quite worried for no reason, it just seems the longer we wait the more I find it hard to believe that we will soon be bringing a baby home. I'm not nervous or worried about labour - it's just that after all we have been through I find it difficult to accept that we will finally be parents and get our happy ending. I'm not being negative and I know it's irrational, in fact it's hard to explain. We're so excited and just impatient!

39 Week Bump

We saw the midwife yesterday and Baby's head is 3/5ths engaged and Baby is in an ideal position for birth, this does not indicate that Baby will come soon though. We see the midwife next Monday for our full-term appointment, and then we're back to the consultant a week Friday for our 41weeks appointment - probably to discuss induction!

We're really hoping that we don't make it to either of these appointments! Come on Baby!
