Taken Out For a Nice Movie ...

NOT!

Alan and I had 4 Hoyts Movie Money vouchers to use that expire in March and Alan thought it would be a nice thing to do since it would probably be one of the last chances to get to see a movie before Shlomo comes.

WELL, he chose to see "Borat". I can honestly say, without a doubt, the dumbest movie I have ever seen. If Alan had been pregnant, he would have gone into labour for sure. The guy just laughed his head off. In fact, the whole cinema was in hysterics. Not sure if it was the hormones, but I really could have stayed home and enjoyed my night more. My poor butt and hips are still sore from sitting in that cinema chair for so long.

Apart from that, I am doing well and now just waiting for the little guy to make his entrance.

Being a Good Mummy-To-Be!

So, I think I have done everything 'medically' I can possibly do now. For the third trimester, I've finished having my two-shot course of Anti-D, done my Strep B test and had the last Ultrasound. Now it is just the waiting game.

I hope my face is going to clear up, otherwise, after the birth I am going to look like a pimply-face-16-year-old. Yeesh!

Speaking of the birth! I am SO at ease now. I won't say completely as that is a HUGE lie. Alan and I have organised to have a Doula with us during labour etc. She is fabulous. Her name is Rachel (Rae) and is so positive about the birth experience and the labour. Since organising to have her be with us for labour support I have slept so well!!! It is fantastic to wake up in the morning and know that I only had to get up once or twice to go to the bathroom and I wasn't awake for hours stressing or stewing on Intervention and a C-Section. Yay!!!

Last Ultrasound

Alan and I had our last Ultrasound today. Shlomo is looking fine. He was moving a lot during it and the Sonographer was having a hard time to get measurements etc on him. We found out he is about right on cue for his Gestational Weight and Due Date.

Starting to really stress out about labour now that we are a month away. I haven't been able to sleep very well and wondering how I can go about calming myself before it. Think my fears are starting to rub off on Alan too.

In the end, he is going to come one way or another but want to birth him with as little intervention as possible. I don't want him to be 'delivered', I want to give birth to him. Yeah, I know, sounding like someone from the 70's! But the way I see it, he was conceived naturally, I'd like him to arrive the same way.
