Wasn't an option today but I'm thinking of giving my ever-so-willing MiL a call, and see if she wants to spend the day here with them, or take 4 of them out for the day. It'll at least give me a chance to try and sleep in peace.
Been looking at maternity care as everything is different here, and I want to be prepared and get some things in order. I spoke to 3 midwifes today who are willing to do home births, 2 are from the same practice, so I have interviews with them Thurs, Fri and Mon, and I'm to give the "winner" a call after my first scan to arrange an appointment so we can discuss my continued care.
I've also found out that DH is entitled to 13 months paternal leave that he can take (in 8 weeks advance) any time, and for any length until the child turns 3! If he wanted he could take a year off, but then he'd have to miss a year, and take his last remaining month the year after.... I LOVE Germany!!
Also, did you you it's compulsory to have counselling before you're allowed an abortion (except on criminal or medical grounds), and you need proof by certificate for the abortion to be considered legal and must take place within 12 weeks of conception?
Yeah, you can tell I've been bored all night. I've just been browsing the web and making a birth plan I was bored!.
