Less than 2 weeks until the due date of my baby.....
I HATE waiting and not knowing exactly when things might happen!!!!!!
We all know Christmas comes on the 25th December - and of course there is so much 'Christmas' stuff to do before, on and just after that date... Imagine if as you got to the last month you realised that 'Christmas Day' could actually occur at any moment whatsoever!! In fact it was unlikely to fall exactly on the 25th.. it could be a week early.. 2 days early, 10 days early, 5 days late... any darn time at all! - That's what I feel like. I am just mentally frustrated knowing that I can't know until it happens! Paranoia is starting to set in - with every different feeling and movement of my body... is something starting??
Fortunately I am going very, very well with everything at the moment.. I really cannot complain at all - but of course every 8 and a half month pregnant woman surely would like to have a bit of a moan and groan about the weight they are carrying around, how uncomfortable it is lying down, sitting down, too tiring on feet for too long, unable to sleep properly, tired through the day, going to the toilet every half-hour almost!, unable to put shoes on properly (let alone your young toddlers shoes too!).... But apart from all the usual stuff - I really can't complain at all!!!
Though I am definately a bit scared about AFTER the baby is born!! I know how hard it was the first time... I know (somewhat) what I am in store for.. and now I will have a toddler and a baby! (Not to mention the house that we are building....)
I also am imagining another couple of things that could possibly occur... I do tend to be a bit of a believer in 'Murphy's Law' - whereas if something can go worng... it often will - especially to me!
One little child who my daughter goes to childcare with has recently come down with Chicken Pox... yay great. Turns out that the worst possible time for a pregnant woman to get chicken pox would be about now!! Incubation time is a couple of weeks - my daughter could come down with it in about a week and a half - and of course, I could catch it off her because I have never had it and am currently not immune... Not good news.
Secondly, I heard today that the hospital I am due to give birth at is unprecedently quiet at the moment!! There has been pretty much one patient in there over the past two weeks... Good news if I go into labour now, or yesterday... But knowing my luck... All the women who haven't been giving birth over the last couple of weeks will all go into labour at the same time as me - and the hospital will be over-full (happened last-time when my daughter was born!! - They put me in the birthing suite, then moved me out again!)
Yay. Please don't get me Murphy's Law!! Please, please, please!
