Getting very close now... both I and my husband are getting very excited thinking about how our lives will change to go round our precious little one.
Last week we've been for a tour of the hospital birth centre and I guess reality kicked in even harder. At the birth centre, the rooms are huge with plenty of comfy things you can use when giving birth. Some of the rooms even have a pool which we'd like to use. You cannot pre-book a room here but it is on a first come first serve basis, so we're keeping our fingers crossed. The other good thing in giving birth here is that the partner can stay with the mother and the baby overnight, which would be great! :)
Now, finally, I have my hospital bag ready. I have packed all the baby grows, a cute outfit, night gowns, nappies and all the other stuff listed on our hospital list.
The baby's doing fine. It has started to drop but I don't know how far it's gone since I didn't see the midwife this week. But I certainly feel more comfortable after having dinner!
My pelvis and groin areas are aching especially when trying to turn in bed! But, I think today it got a bit better so maybe this is only temporary until the pelvis stretches enough to accomodate the baby.
Are you going through the same experiences? Would you like to share what the last month was like for you? Please leave your comments here.
