June 18, 2019

Dear Bean Full term! Now it’s time for you to come out please. All is good, though I’ve not been sleeping well as I’m so uncomfortable in bed now. I’m so tired, so achy and just ready to have a baby in my arms rather than my belly! Other than that, I’m feeling OK really....

Dear Bean Not too much to report this week. I’ve had lots of Braxton Hicks, Bean is sitting really low – which is good I guess, but mighty uncomfortable! I’ve had a bit of lower back ache too, but still sleeping fine {other than having to wake to go pee}. I’m super slow at walking...

Dear Bean – Week Thirty Four

May 7, 2019

Dear Bean Another week down… still feeling pretty OK. I’m tired and achey, but that’s to be expected. I’m feeling fairly good, sleeping OK, Bean is very wriggly still. I’m trying to get the last bits organised, a ‘hospital bag’ packed {even though I’m planning another home birth, I always have a bag of essentials...
