10 days to go and I feel...

[emkana]

.... soooooooooo fed up!
Tired, achy, grumpy...
have no patience with dd2, poor thing.

On the one hand I want to keep going until next Wednesday, because of dd1's birthday, on the other hand I'd rather have him TODAY to get it over with!

same here. i feel so huge and tired. and DD is home until the 6th (my due date).

How old is your dd?
Dd1 has her last day at school before half-term today as well...
so next week I will have two children to entertain, great.
To be fair though they do play together quite well, so it's a break in a way.
And at least I won't have to get dressed in the morning for the school run...

DD is 5 in a few weeks.
in a way it would be good that she'll be home. no one needs to go pick her up from school if i go into labour sometime next week etc. but she's been so stroppy lately, i just don't need all the falling out and tantrums right now.

Remember it well! Good luck! DD spent a lot of time bonding with the nice guys at disney when I was due .

emkana i think its almost better that way - your dds will be home during all hubub of birth and then when things calm you will be in peace! my ds was born feb half term and i dreaded it.
All the best Em...i think everything will seem brighter when he is here x

Thinking of you emkana. I bet you're really looking forward to this stressful pregnancy being over, I know I am with mine--I have 10 weeks to go now.

Yes I can't wait for it to be over, sometimes the longing to hold this baby is just so immense -
but at the same time I feel anxious and apprehensive about what might lie ahead, so a really strange mixture of feelings.

thinking of you emkana. Hope everything goes as well as it can.

I think what I am looking forward to is getting to know my baby as a person and not a medical problem that lives inside me--do you feel the same?

Arabica - that's exactly what I feel, yes.

At my last scan I could see the baby's face very clearly and I felt such a yearning to hold this baby, to really be able to stroke his little face...

Thinking of you emkana, hope the next few days go well XXXXX
