So, we've reached and passed our due date! And I'm okay with that! Seeing how miserable other ladies have made themselves over being overdue has made me think that I really don't mind... It means I get extra time with my wiggly bump, more uninterrupted baths and a bit more sleep!
I feel like as long as my little baby arrives safely, I could not care less! Sure it'd be nice to have the perfect water birth on my due date but if I have to go through induction, four days of labour and a c section... Then so be it. As long as my baby is safe. In a months time, an extra few days really won't feel like anything...
Patience is a virtue. One that I have finally managed after being the worlds least patience woman ever (hence 16 week sexing scan)
See you soon darling baby girl
Two days till due date!
Well, I didn't think I'd get this far! I'm due in two days and 100% ready for our baby bears arrival! The car seat is ready, the nursery is ready and mummy and daddy can't wait!
A lot has changed in the last 40 weeks, James has a new career and is back at college, I've lost lots of jobs due to my "condition" and we are now planning a wedding!
I think the main thing that I wish I'd been told when I found out I was pregnant is that you never stop worrying! Ever. All day all I think about is my little tummy pig! I wish I'd been told that some of my 'friends' would be absolute arseholes and not bother with me at all... But that new friends are easy to find and how much you appreciate the true friends in your life.
The only downer really on the whole thing at the moment is financial... But then who doesn't worry about money?! Unfortunately James doesn't have as many hours as he did over the summer, I've now given up work and our lodger is moving out. Household finances have dwindled to about a third of what they were.. However, with a very snazzy spreadsheet we've worked out we'll manage and both agreed on one thing... What more could we both want?! Baby very nearly with us, due to be married next year lovely house, lovely family, our health and a lot of happiness.
The thing I'm most excited about is James becoming a daddy, I wholly believe he will be the best dad to our baby and get all teary thinking about how lucky and blessed I am to have him by my side :)
Hopefully my next post will have a squishy baby face in :) or ill be moaning and over due! The main thing is that she comes safe and sound i can wait a little longer yet :)

38+5
So! Nine days until my due date and I'm getting bored! I want to get out and make some mummy friends!
Had my midwife appointment yesterday, all is well, Tilly is fully engaged and ready to go... Hopefully soon :( I'm getting uncomfortable and unbelievably bored bored bored!!
So bored that I can't think of anything interesting to say haha!

So it's October!
Which means its the month that Tilly is officially allowed to come out and play! I'm 36+3 weeks pregnant now and baby Y is considered fully cooked in three sleeps (eeeeee!!!) can't wait!
The last two weeks have flown by, Tilly still seems to be head down and ready to go and has been treating mummy to some lovely pains in preparation! (thanks tiny bum) in the last two weeks I've had two baby showers and Tilly was ridiculously spoilt by all! And James has turned 27! Big boy now lol!
Im not uncomfortable or impatient and happy to let little bear cook to her hearts content! I'm not scared about the birth or labour and I can't wait for sleepless nights with my longed for little bub! I say bring it on! Bring it all on! I can't wait to be a mummy :)
The one thing I'm most excited about is James becoming a daddy. I believe he will be an incredible dad and has proven to me that he's my soulmate. We've been together for less than a year, I've been pregnant, anxious, grumpy and evil for nine months of that year and he's been my rock. I couldn't ask for him to work harder to support us and I'm going to be a snotty mess when I become mrs young next September :)
Life is glorious!
