The Wildling Within

38 weeks pregnant… Hurry up baby!!!

This pregnancy has been a whirlwind really, with two home educated boys and a full time job I’ve not really had much time to think about it, or managed much nap time.  This of course has its upsides… I’ve run up more flights of stairs than I care to admit, barely put on any weight, and not experienced a lot of the pregnancy symptoms I’ve had in the past (maybe I’ve just got lucky this time).

The last bit of a pregnancy is always a bit frustrating (sure many of you have found this too).  The clothes and nappies are washed and packed away, babies’ bed is built and I’ve even sat and made a couple of first toys.  I’m fat, slow, tired and bored of waiting!

Now I’ve hit the pregnancy wall!  As of three days ago I look like a duck waddling around, stairs have become my nemesis, and my appetite has increased by at least double.  To be honest I think this baby needs to diet… at this rate he’s gonna come out looking like a Weetabix (my snack of choice).

Tonight the OH and I had a much needed, child free evening which we spent watching Bill Bailey live.  I was rather hoping a good dose of laughter would help evict a baby but sadly it seems that hasn’t worked… this is by no means a bad review by the way, go see Bill Bailey, he’s good for a laugh or three!

In the meantime there’s a very excited family waiting to meet their newest member, so hurry up baby!  Back to playing the waiting game.
