I can tell you something that will make it feel less like dragging and more like there isn't possibly enough time left before your LOs arrive.... I was due June 18th, however our little girl made her entrance into the world at 12:45 on Monday 26th March. She's now 2 days old.
So do I get a prize as the first June mummy?! I was 12 weeks premature due to severe pre-eclampsia developing within the space of 4 days at the end of last week. She came out crying and weighing in at 1lb 15oz. We've called her Grace Nancy Alison. Nancy was DHs grandma who passed away the week before my LMP where I fell pregnant, and Alison is my mum. Grace is all her own name. She's had to be ventilated as she was tiring out trying to breathe, but luckily they'd given me steroids a few days earlier to mature her lungs. She's so tiny and fragile, but she opened her eyes today and has been having a good stretch, and they're hoping she'll be weaned off the vent within about 48 hours. The doctors say she's strong, for which I am very grateful, as no one would choose to have such a premature baby, I can stroke her but not pick her up.
