Good morning ladies!
Well after an increasingly stressed and fretful few days when DH was useless and we weren't doing any baby-readying at all, I'm now feeling more relaxed. Car seat and crib are sorted, and nursery is getting there. Today I'll finish my 'in case of longer stay' hospital bag and my PoddlePod should arrive too. Still fretting we don't have a boys' name but I can pester DH on that several times a day 
Had my 36 week mw check yesterday, a little late due to Xmas - I'm 37+2. Left feeling great about my ability to grow a baby - head is low down (pretty sure that the mw showing DH how to feel where it is and therefore revealing how low down it is means he will now not have sex with me till baby is out though!), facing right way, good movements and excellent heartbeat. Good baby!
After the appointment though the baby didn't stop moving all day - wasn't kicking my ribs quite as much but its bum is always there just below ribs on right hand side, twerking away
I was pretty uncomfortable yesterday actually - spent a lot of time on the ball but was finding my pelvic and lower back pain flaring up worse than it has for weeks, plus some cervical twinges and also feeling quite sicky. So really hoping this is not the story for the next three weeks.
I need to pick up my iron tablet prescription today - after my iron levels have gone down each appointment, yesterday she said I am anaemic - I had been feeling even more exhausted than before (and tiredness has been my main and worst pregnancy symptom the whole time) plus very weak even if just standing up, and short of breath. I hadn't wanted to overreact because it could obviously just be due to busy Christmas and heavier bump but it's nice to know the tablets should give me a boost for the last few weeks.
DH has invited 7 people over for NYE tonight. I'm not thrilled... I'd rather be here than elsewhere but would have preferred it to be just us. Actually 5 of the 7 are fine as I know they'd be happy with a takeaway but the last couple are quite judgemental and I really wish they weren't coming. So today I'm going to have to (slowly!) clean the house. And sort the spare rooms out because he didn't even tell them they have to get taxis home, he's left it open for them to stay if they want. Which also then means hosting them on Thursday - he won't ask them to leave so goodness knows how late they'll stay. I've said I'm not doing anything food wise though, so it's down to him to go to Tesco and prepare whatever he wants to offer. He did try looking through the cupboards and fridge and freezer yesterday but I nearly took his head off - we did have a mammoth grocery delivery yesterday but that's everything we need to have us stocked up in case baby arrives all he to let me make some big batches of stuff for the freezer - he now knows that whatever is in the kitchen now is off-limits for tonight!
What's everyone else doing for NYE? Any big plans or is everyone else having the quiet night in I'm dreaming of?!
I'm going to do some baby name brainstorming (pointless really - I have 3 I keep coming back to so need to convince DH of one rather than try to find more...) then get up and tackle the cleaning...
Have a super day everyone 
37+2
