Best wishes ! And good for you to keep it to yourselves - this is the last bit of privacy you'll have for a while !

Good luck everyone! Let us know how it goes. I’m awake because my naughty baby wanted to come in my bed- your reasons are much more lovely!

How exciting! Good luck to you both. I was the same when I had dd2. Couldn't sleep because I knew what was happening.

I still remember when I had my DS via elective c section. I could not sleep all night that night! I was so nervous I felt ill! Nearly 3 years ago now. Crazy how quick the time goes! Wishing you all the best x
