Hello all,
All good here, although movements have most definitely stepped up a notch. Kept awake at night now, which is proving to leave me drained during the day.
Thankfully I finish work on 21st Feb (at 35 weeks) - I know it's early but I've tons of hols I need to take before due date 27th March. So I'm looking forward to some time off.
I totally underestimated how tired I would feel - already this 3rd trimester I am starting to waddle (more comfy to walk this way LOL!) and I can't get comfy on my office desk chair. Love sitting on my birthing ball (rolling or bouncing gently on it).
Still feeling pretty calm about it all, thought I would've reverted back to previous panic state about the birth - but I am attributing it to the calming influence of the hypnobirthing cds I use regularly. I cannot recommend enough, and even if it all goes out the window on the day, it's worked wonders on keeping me calm and I'm actually looking forward to the birth now (strange but true!)...
I had my 28wk MW apt last week (when I was in fact 29wks) and the MW told me he has already turned, which is great news, really pleased. So all good so far...
Keep well all.. not long now!
