99 days to go!! 
That's double figures - OMG!! Think I'd better start shopping!! I think over the last couple of weeks things are gradually falling into place....I've been mentally preparing if nothing else! I am finally beginning to feel excited at the thought of having a child, instead of just shit scared, lol. I am beginning to contemplate the amazing love you must feel for this child that you created....
I am beginning to feel a bit more prepared shopping wise - now I have a couple of lists to go by I am feeling a little less overwhelmed! Next step is to just make a start...think I might try next weekend!
Have been feeling overwhelmed by the kindness of others...after my hospital experience last week when I was all alone and I didn't want to bother anyone to ask for help (apart from 1 person who said no!) so many old friends and work colleagues have come forward and said they sincerely would happily help me if I ever find myself in that situation again. People have been giving me their numbers, saying they'll happily drive up and down across Sheffield to get my stuff, I've had offers for birth partners, offers for people to do my shopping! When I came to work yesterday they gave me a belated Wedding card and they'd had a collection and gave me £40!! I was so touched, I haven't even been there a year and as I'm a bit quiet I'm not as pally as some of them are and I've often felt a little left out. But all the clerical staff and all the nurses and support staff had signed this card and contributed...how sweet is that? I'm going to treat baby to either a baby bouncer or a little play mat/gym with the money!! xxx
