Waiting

It's less than two weeks now to due day. I feel a lot of Baxton-Hicks but obviously nothing happened yet. I enjoyed not working and having time to myself 3 days a week. I had a haircut, had the car cleaned and rented a baby capsule. I bought baby stuff and sorted all the baby clothes I was given (I didn't buy a single baby clothes item this time!!). I re-arranged Lara's bedroom, bought rugs and curtains and organised air-con installations. But there seems to be more things to buy and do.

Two weeks ago, I had to go to the delivery suite in the hospital to have a test done because I thought my water was leaking. It was then I realised I hadn't even packed my labour bag! We have not decided on a name either. I know I will get even less sleep and no free time once the baby arrives, but I'll be glad when the birth is out of the way.

I thought I might be induced this week, but apparently my body is not ready. In the mean time, I am still here and try to wait patiently for the new arrival.
