36 weeks today and I am definitely expanding, to the detriment of my lungs, stomach, and bending-over abilities. I am doggedly still putting Loey in the sling every morning for his first daytime nap though:
And leaving him there awake for as long as he will put up with it:
36 weeks is a big day, because from this point on I am clear to stay at home if I go into labour (and all goes well). Today we overhauled the labour box and packed the transfer bag, but I am delaying putting up the birth pool for another week - it just takes up so much room and our house is so small. I am scared of what’s to come, but only to a normal extent I think - it would be crazy not to have some apprehensions about labour! But bean is such a legend - she is doing all the night time care of Loey (I am only comfortable sleeping on the couch), and letting me take it pretty easy during the days too. I will be as rested and prepared as a mother of a 3 month old could hope to be!
what is it with sleeping on the couch…i had to do that too, even though we have an amazing bed…
