Trying to stay sane!
When I woke on the morning of Monday, 17th September, little did I realise that it would be the day that we would meet our new baby. I’d been feeling really uncomfortable for a few days, well weeks really, beforehand and had been rather emotional and tetchy. On the Sunday (16th), I gave baby permission [...]
Yup, your read it right! Our little man is here arriving spot on 37 weeks. I won’t go in to too much detail here as I’m tired, but baby Zachary Bernard was born at 1855 on 17th September 2012 weighing in at 5lbs 7oz. I did not get the c-section I was planning, instead I [...]
As I write this post I am currently curled up on a hospital bed experiencing contractions every 10mins and have done since 4am this morning. Yep, little man has decided that he really cannot wait another 2 weeks to meet us and that today is as good as any to arrive! I have been at [...]
Yesterday saw us turn 36 weeks. I know, I am a bit late posting this. I have just been so tired lately and had a few projects in the pipeline that I just didn’t find the time to write this (bad of me I know!). So, 36 weeks in, 3 more to go! I am [...]
4 weeks or 28 days or 1 month to go! However you say it, it’s not long and I can’t wait! I have got practically everything for my hospital bag the past week and have started packing it today. I doubt very much that he’ll arrive early, but you know, just incase. I saw the [...]
I am starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel! We have just 5 weeks to go until we get to meet our little man. The eldest 2 children are back to school in just over a week, so I am hoping the rest of the time will fly by. I still [...]
6 weeks and counting! I am at that stage of pregnancy now where I am really struggling. I am feeling very uncomfortable and large. Obviously having this UTI at the moment really isn’t helping with how I am feeling. I am struggling to sleep and eat at the moment, and just want to sleep. I have [...]
We were really hoping that this pregnancy would be plain sailing and that we wouldn’t encounter any issues or hospital trips. Unfortunately, hospital is where we ended up around 9:30pm last night. We had a fairly busy day on Wednesday and I didn’t sleep particularly well. I put it down to over doing it and [...]
7 weeks to go and it cannot come quick enough. The last few days I really haven’t been enjoying this pregnancy at all. I’ve been really uncomfortable, experiencing a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions that are very tight around my belly and back. I’ve also had cramp type pains in my pelvis, restless legs, cramp [...]
Yesterday I was up bright and early and in the car driving to the hospital by 8:15. My appointment wasn’t until 9am, but it can be a nightmare to get to and with the Olympics and M25 traffic, it’s always best to leave early. I arrived at 8:40am and decided to head in for [...]
