different these past couple of days. In a good way
Kind of like an acceptance has washed over me. I was a bit nervous before, just of labour starting, not of the possible pain. But now I'm very calm, collected and surprisingly still very mobile, walking, bending, chasing my chickens and waiting for eggs to hatch (cute chicklets sometime the end of this week), walking the dog twice a day (although those hills are getting tougher and I'm getting slower). I've even had a couple of nights good sleep, where even though I wake to wee a fair bit, I've slept soundly and not woken with hip pain or cramps (might be something to do with the bananas I am scoffing).
I'm not nesting, but I am getting cleaned up as I'd hate for the MW's to arrive here and the house to be overly dusty or the porch floor to be covered in muddy wellies as it normally is Poor ladies need to be able to see through the chaos that is our house and not run for the hills Plus we have a houseguest on Tuesday so another incentive to get organised, much as I would rather leave it
I've also been sleeping in the day the past few days, which I don't often do. MW said to listen to my body and rest when it needed it as it was often a sign.
I've also stopped flumping round the house trying to get comfy. I seem to be beyond that now. I am just, I don't know the word, but I just am 'it' whatever 'it' is.
I guess I am just ready, and whenever it happens now is fine by me.
