37 Week Preggy Update

I am feeling bluh & tired today - with 8 sleeps to go. Just feel heavy & I have terrible lower back pain.

We had a check-up this morning and all is fine & on track. Imke has gone from 2.6kg 2 weeks ago to 3.1kg today! So she is growing nicely & will probably be about 3.5Kg or thereabouts next Tuesday.

She is still sitting VERY comfortable with her head tucked under my boobs (read: she is headbutting her mother & causing horrid indigestion!!!). Her heartbeat is perfect & my blood pressure is perfect - so no worries. She will be delivered via C-section @ about 08:00am on Tuesday 2nd June @ Sandton Medi-Clinic.........

uhmmmmmmmm, as far as the renovations are concerned: We SHOULD be finished on Tuesday.............. Carpets are being installed on Wednesday & I want everything done before then........ I have now reverted to incentives (braai & beer on Tuesday night LOL!!!) when they are finished!! But I am quietly confident that all will work out. On Thursday I have a whole army of cleaners (ie my mother, her domestic, my domestic, me, dad) coming to clean my house so everything will be spic & span (hopefully) by Friday.....

Yesterday J & I were in the shops from 11 till 4 (my feet, my poor feet!!!) getting the last of the stuff we need. Imke got the cutest little CD player (spoilt rotten already!!) and I got the white wicker washing basket & dustbin & still wanted for her room.

At Jeroen's 'baby shower' at work they gave us the coolest mobile & the softest Perla blanket and loads of other goodies :-) They are so lovely to do this for the dads!

Anyhoo.... that be my 2nd last update...... Next Monday we are going to the doc for last check & then I go in on Tuesday Morning (decided I want to sleep at home on Monday night although doc says I should rather book in already....)

36 Week Preggy Update

We had our 36 week appointment at the doc this morning - all is well & on track!

We see him agian in 10 days (the 25th) & then again on Monday the 1st - the day before the op. She is still lying breech - and she is now too big to turn... I am happy about the C-section though.

I am suffering quite a bit from pain in my lower back & feet, and turning over in bed at night is so uncomfortable. And I am having the strangest dreams - last night I dreamt that I give birth & it is the most beautiful GINGER CAT....... WTF???? LOL!!

On the renovations front all is going ok - we are on schedule to finish next Friday. We are only having issues finding the shower doors to fit our space..... We decided to be indulgent and have a double shower but now I can't seem to find doors to fit he he he!! Didn't plan that too well :-) But no worries, we will make a plan!

The time is flying by now & we are very excited to meet our baba - also quite nervous but I guess that is too be expected!
