Baby time

Oh my. 9 months of preparing for a baby will come to a close today.

Just found out I was pregnant - around 5 weeks

16.5 weeks

29 weeks

38.5 weeks

39.5 weeks

 It's pretty odd. I can't really remember not having a big baby tummy. But I will be happy to have it shrink again so I can fit into my clothes again (hopefully!). But I also know that that is a while away. 

I'm pretty unsure about how everything is going to go tonight. This weekend has been filled with a lot of thoughts and a lot of 2nd guessing myself (I think I spoke about that in my last post). Yesterday I wrote a list of things to do and I have slowly been working through that. I went to Medicare to claim back cash monies from all my dr appointments and it was pretty awesome how much we got back so yay for that. Jenny's lesson on nappies was very helpful but I'm sure many more questions will come when Bubble is here (thanks Jens for all your advice!). I worked on the last bits to sort Bubble's room and am feeling that it is all pretty much ready. Yay! Here is a photo tour of Bubble's room.

I love the bookself. The bottom left box is filled with books, the top left box has cds in it.

The rocking chair is ready with the blanket that Robyn from school knitted to warm my legs while feeding. We are going to move the mobile to over the change table - a job for James Bubble and I come home. James put the monitor onto the bassinet so we can see Bubble sleeping (that's the plan :-p)

Change table is ready. Most creams are bought, cloth nappies and wipes are on the 1st shelf, disposals, change mats and cloth nappy covers on bottom shelf. I hope it works.

A growth chart which James will put up before Bubble and I get home. It is pretty cute. Thanks for the Kikki K voucher Malcolm and Julie!

The night light works! It is so cute. I can't wait to feed beside it (but I'm sure the novelty will wear off very quickly!)

 So there you go. Inside the cupboard is all organised too.

James and I have finally decided on baby names (better late than never). We have had a girls name for ages, but a boys name has continued to stump us. I hope the names are ok. Or if we just have a girl because we have loved our girl's name for ages.

 

Last night I slept ok but would have liked a sleep in. I guess my brain started thinking about tonight and the fact that it was my last night sleeping in my bed without having to get up and feed Bubble. I started to think about what else I need to take tonight and how things will be in hospital. I guess that's why sleeping in just didn't happen. But today I'm planning on finishing off a few things at home and taking it easy. Come 6pm I will call delivery and then head in when told. The next time I blog, I will have a beautiful baby.
