Snow Day!

It's snowing!

A Quick Update

Hi everyone!!

Just a quick update, no major news to tell!

Have seen the consultant and midwife this week, everything is going well. Baby's head has started to engage which is good news and it's unlikely he will change position now. We had a quick mobile scan and sure we saw "Little Boy bits!" but didn't ask, and quite honestly it could have been anything :-)

The nursery is almost ready, the nesting instinct has definitely kicked in, things have been washed that have never even seen the light of day before!

Poor old Tom is hopping around with a bandage and collar after his surgery but doing well.

Conrad is still working hard and looking forward to an extra hour in bed tonight.

Happy Birthday to Kate for Sunday.

Only 5 weeks and 4 days until b-day!

Keeping in touch

Hello! Just thought we would add a little update. Nothing major has happened recently. I am keeping up the aqua classes and also doing lots of cleaning around the house!

Saw the midwife last week, everything seems fine, see her again a week today and also an appointment with the consultant. We have had another antenatal class in which they seemed to take great pleasure in showing us a graphic video and pulling out the forceps!

Unfortunately one of our cats, Tom, has to go in for surgery on his paw this week. It is very worrying (and probably also expensive!)

Emma's Dad stayed for one night over the weekend which was really nice and we are also looking forward to Vera's visit in early November. Conrad is still working very hard at the airport.

We have finally decided on our top three boys and girls names, but it's a secret!

Back to School

So we had our first 'parentcraft' class last night up at Noble's. It was really good to meet some other first time parents and learn more about our options for labour.
We also got to take a look around the maternity ward, delivery suites and special care unit. They also have a beautiful birthing pool.

I am off into Douglas today to buy essentials for my hospital bag, it all seems very real now - only 8 weeks left til b-day!

Time to relax!

As from 2pm today, it's officially time to kick back and relax on maternity leave. Yippee! I am a lady of leisure!
