Well, just over 6 weeks actually, until the baby is due. Everything is pretty much sorted out, just a few little things left to do. I’m still terrified of labour, but quite excited about coming home afterwards with a baby! I’m still not 100% convinced it’s a boy, but I’ll just have to wait and see now I suppose.
I’m getting a lot more backache and pain in my hips, especially at night or if I’ve been walking a lot. Apparently, that’s normal at this stage. Luckily, I’ve only put on a stone in weight (according to my midwife, that’s not too much), which hopefully means it won’t be too difficult to lose the excess weight afterwards. Although, it will be nearly Christmas….lots of nice food around, so we’ll see.
