08 Feb 2011 While I'm thinking of it . . .

I have finally been given a due date! It is the 22nd of March, and the surgery is booked in for the arvo some time. I am extreemly anxious about this surgery, because with all the other I've taken a very long time to heal, and the pain has always marred the enjoyment of the baby, but I am doing my best not to dwell on this, because, hey! Its another time round! It can be different!
Still trying to keep my dwindling hope alive of having bubby naturally, but I fear it is already to big to push past all the old scar tissue, so rest assure, people! If labour happens I'm off to the hospital quick as a wink!!
I'm getting past the nesting stage now, and settling into the 'I can't give a rats tail' stage, so we know its not long away, but my track record with babies this one will be on time or not at all, so by all accounts I've still got six weeks left.
An interesting thing, though. Most people and places'll tell you that at this stage baby is sleeping most of the time, yes? NO ONE TOLD THIS ONE THAT!!! It wiggles and squirms and stretches and rolls almost the whole time I am awake, and it is responsive to light, sudden noise, and any movement!! I'm SCARED of what its going to be like when it comes out!!!!! Naturally I'm (half) joking. I can't wait to meet bubby face to face, and I know the children and Daddy can't wait either.
