I am 32 weeks pg with DC2. DS will be 3 next week.
We are going on holiday (N Wales) about 3 hr drive from home (W Yorks) tomorrow. DH says we should take the infant car seat with us in case the baby comes early (me, my sister, mother and granny have a history of babies coming 2-7 weeks early; DS was 2 weeks early; I was 7 weeks early; the last 3 generations have not made it to 40 weeks).
I say that if the baby comes next week, then me and it are not going home in a hurry, and there will be plenty of coming and going between home and the hospital - if it comes to it DH and DS won't be able to stay in the holiday cottage indefinately!
We also have a family history of quick labours, so if labour does start, then driving home is not really an option.
I'll take my maternity notes.
I feel quite well.
I have been playing with the mountains of N Wales for many years, and am more familiar with the location of Bangor Hospital than the average non-Bangorian!
