Getting myself into a total tizz over a 3.5hr flight!

Sorry I'll probably look back at this thread and realise how pathetic I'm being. I'm flying short-haul tomorrow (with DH who can be a bit of a stress-head). 29 wks pregnant with my 18 month Dd.

I can't sleep, my heart is beating ten to the dozen, I have to be up in one hour & am freaking about just about everything going wrong. This very lively baby suddenly stopping kicking, the stress of the airport with a lively toddler, blood clots. Something going wrong whilst I'm on 'holiday'. A nightmare apartment totally unsuitable for the toddler, the toddler hurting herself/ falling into the pool.

Somebody please slap me, tell me it's all going to be ok. I wish we'd never booked this bloody holiday and can't wait for it to all be over & back home.

You need to relax for the sake of your unborn. Nice deep breaths now.....in.....and .......out. Your post had me in a tizz for u! Grin

Airport- lots of toys, new things for toddler to see so put together a bingo game or something so they have to tick off what they see (cash machine, coffee shop, man with a beard, sunglasses stand). I'm improvising, they'll be fine!

Apartment - did u research it? It'll be fine. And if it's not, you'll cope- just go out more!!

Blood clots- walk around lots on flight, do ankle exercise.

Everything will be fine. Try and stop worrying & instead get excited u are going on holiday- oooh sand and sea & and a lovely break Smile

All the best Smile
