Today’s milestone is .. well a big one! At 37 weeks, my baby is considered full term \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I don’t think it’s really really hit me yet – but soon there’s going to be a little person out and about. This little person has been a part of me since I was born myself, and started to grow into his own self 35 weeks ago or so. <\/p>\n

It blows my mind to think of his little feet, and who’s nose he has. We wonder if he has hair already, and what colour eyes he’ll have when arrives. <\/p>\n

It seems so foreign that he’s in there, hiccuping away and thinking his own thoughts already. I wonder if he really does recognise my voice – he’s sure to recognise my singing voice because I do it enough for the plants outside to know all about! <\/p>\n

My bump looks like a shelf that I’ve had installed on my stomach, instead of the nursery, but it’s totally cool to see. Being ‘heavily pregnant’ has it’s oddness, but it’s also really cool to be blooming this way. <\/p>\n

Did I tell you that I’m eating for 4 now? I don’t know what’s going on – but I described it to my mum as ‘getting ready for winter’ – I’m eating so much more and sleeping (or trying to) whenever I can. I finish up work tomorrow, so I’ll have more time for cupcakes and catnaps – something I’m really looking forward to!<\/p>\n

I can’t bear to read any more birth stories or hear about sad events. I’ve become a mess of a woman, with all these hormones, but at the same time I’m so so calm and ready for it all to change. <\/p>\n

Our check up yesterday was short and swift (although the waiting time was long and boring). We’re both doing great – and am basically waiting for each other to be physically ready to make the next move. I’m still mighty uncomfortable but am surrendering to it all – this is just what nature wants for me to experience, so I let it be. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
