Happy vibes please!

Sadly my lovely uncle passes away on Thursday morning. It was a complete shock, he was only 49 and relatively healthy. As you can imagine, the whole family is in pieces. Spent Thursday and Friday in tears, all the while feeling so guilty for Bubs for being so down! Then Friday evening we found out that my SIL and her husband have split. We then spent hours with her, consing etc. The worst part for me is that my 2 nieces are in the middle. The oldest is 8, exactly the same age as I was when my parents split.
So yesterday morning I woke up feeling really sad, for everyone. Then had a super busy day, and spent more time with family etc.

This is my last week at work before maternity leave starts, and as selfish as it sounds, I'll be glad to go to work tomorrow to see colleagues and have a normal chat and stuff. I want to feel happier for Bubs' sake. Might sound crazy, but I'm sure his/her movements have slowed down and I can't help thinking it's because of all the stress and upset.

So...I'll be stalking the labour threads (already had a read through - come on baby Nurse and BB!!), and trying to enjoy my last week as much as possible.

Sorry for the absolute essay. Kind of helps to write it all down though!

bless you hun, you do whatever you need to do to stay calm. Try not to take the whole world on your shoulders, I am sure your uncle would not want you to stress out being pregnant. Hope things calm down for you soon xxxxxxxxx

Thank you ladies xxx

Hubby took control today and got me out of the house, to spend the day just us. We bought a few little bits for Bubs which cheered me up a bit Plus Bubs has been dancing lots for me so I know he/she is ok.

Steffy, big smile on my face - can't believe we're so close!!!
