I have 11 weeks until my little one is due to leave my body and meet us in the outside world. I am certain that he or she will be healthy, but I have started to read about little things like labour, and I'm getting somewhat scared. Before, I purposely skipped past the section in books giving info on labour and the details of what could go wrong. Is that so very naive?
I find myself breathless more and more, and I really am struggling to focus at work. Not to mention losing my memory constantly. I'm actually dreading these next three weeks. Still I guess at least I have the choice to leave now, I coulda carried on until the end of December, but it seems pointless to give myself additional stress, after all we've still gotta find a house!
We bought some more baby clothes on Friday, a set of 3 vests, 3 babygrows and some other bits, but in newborn as I've been told 0-3 mth clothes will swamp him or her. I'm pretty sure Bump is a boy, but if I am wrong I will get a nice surprise! We've pretty much decided on a Boys name, we visited the Grandparents today (to say goodbye essentially) and his Grandpa inadvertently suggested a name which I really like and we hadn't even thought of. I won't give it away just yet.
I'm gonna try to go swimming again, I enjoyed myself and it gave me a chance to exercise and relax at the same time. I really don't fancy Yoga for pregnant ladies, but I might give the aquanatal class a go whilst I still have my gym membership.
I seem to have rambled on, tis my concentration again, that and the fact I started this post more than 3 hours ago! Have a good week everyone!
Happy

I don't think it's naive to skip past all the bits on labour, as labour makes it all seem so real and at the mo we're kinda living in a bubble knowing that yes we will have to let our little bundles leave the protection of our bodies at some stage but we're just happy with the way things are at the moment.
Labour and everything that it entails means awkwardness, loss of dignity for some, pain and discomfort and the scariness looking after a newborn a little life dependent solely on us and that's a huge responsibility. It's easier to skip past that and focus on the nice parts and there are so many nice parts!
