Wow, so much is happening for so many of you!
Our bathroom should be finished today, 3 1/2 weeks after work began on a job that should have taken 5 days!!! Basically, the fitter HAS to start another job tomorrow and considering all the stuff and his tools are currently in the soon to be nursery I'll hold him hostage till he has finished!!!
My hospital bag is now packed, but I need to do one for DH. I am currently washing all the Moses basket & crib bedding. On Thursday we have a delivery from Argos for some living room furniture, Friday we have someone coming to plaster where the boiler used to be in the nursery, on Saturday someone is coming to measure up for a new carpet in the nursery and stairs/landing, on Sunday DH plans to paint the living room and possibly stairs/landing (he'll continue with it and the nursery the following weekend). We are waiting for new settees from DFS to arrive and we are ordering the nursery furniture this week. We have a Moses basket and crib from DS ready to be set up in our room and our buggy is an inline one that can be a single or double.
We have so much to do and I feel awful that I can't do more to help my DH, but with DS around too we need to occupy him so I'll be going swimming, to the park, playcentres etc and that's not as easy as it sounds atm!!!
I had a dream about giving birth last night that really brought home how close to my due date I really am! I work in a college with 16-19 year olds and in this dream I was in the college swimming pool (there isn't really one). All of a sudden I went into labour and delivered my baby, still in the pool!!! There were students in the pool splashing around and I shouted at them for splashing my baby and other students were coming into the pool area for an induction tour! I got out the pool and tried to call DH, but he wasn't answering his phone! Weird!
Has anyone else had any labour/delivery dreams?
LO definitely feels lower these last few days and I'm getting fewer bodyparts poking out of the upper part of my bump, movements are still regular and come like clockwork so I would love to know what baby is doing and what position it is in!
Seeing the midwife next Thursday to discuss my birth plan and the consultant on Friday to discuss my VBAC options based on baby's position.
