Daniel is just being the cutest at night! Before he goes to bed for the past 2 nights, I have asked him if he wants to give Squeak a cuddle. He seems to understand that "Squeak" is either in my tummy or is my tummy, but I don't think he understands it is a baby brother/sister. Anyway, last night when I asked if he wanted to give Squeak a cuddle he lifted up my shirt, and rested his head on my tummy. I asked if he wanted to give Squeak a kiss and he blew one at my tummy and waved 'hi there'. So cute!
Tonight it was similar. He wriggled down to my tummy level to give Squeak a cuddle and a kiss. I just love it. I hope that he is just as loving when Squeak comes. I'm sure he will be.
An update on me, my doctor worked out that I had a urinary tract infection and that was probably why I had all the sore muscles. I never knew that would cause so much pain. So I am on antibiotics to try and get rid of it. He also noticed that I had a lot of glucose in my urine test, so he sent me for the glucose challenge - 2 weeks early. Fortunately the test came back normal so that is good.
Also, Daniel has finished breastfeeding. After a couple more attempts at offering milk to him and getting very confused with the 'no, no' but then asking for 'mil' but then not wanting to rest or drink we decided that he doesn't want to have milk anymore. I am ok with this (this time). It has been a wonderful journey. I am so glad that I persisted with it in the early days, I have loved the precious time of sitting there having him drink, the smiles and chats that we have had, etc. But it is good that when Squeak comes I only need to feed one child and I don't need to worry about trying to feed Daniel while I'm in hospital. But it definitely was a special time and I'm glad that he decided to stop - not me making him decide.
