16 days to go!


The count down is definately on! Only 16 days now til my 'guess' date, so it could really happen at any time. I'm really excited and really ready to meet our little boy. My body is starting to get achey and sore and tired, and I'm really feeling the exhaustion of carrying around this extra 10 kgs. He can't come soon enough!

I had my weekly check-up on Friday and all was extremely positive. Bub's head is atleast half way engaged into my pelvis which Dr Turner was very happy with. I'd had my last lot of blood tests taken a few days earlier and they all came back fine too, so I'm basically ready to go! Dr Turner will still be doing an internal exam on me next Monday to determine if and when we can book me in for an induction. Then, we can get Nug on the plane back here!

On Saturday, I did a tour of the labour and maternity ward at the Wesley. I've never seen the inside of a delivery room before so that was very interesting! The rooms you stay in afterwards look very comfortable and the midwives were lovely, so I know we'll be quite happy there. I can't believe how close it is.

Choosing a name has been a little bit difficult though I think we have finally decided. I guess you can never really know for sure til you meet little bub, but I'm pretty sure we'll stick with what we've chosen. I think we're still deciding on a middle name!

Enjoy the latest pic of my massive belly!
