Hi Everyone...
Teni if you want to make another appointment go for it. You sound really excited and perhaps you need to go back and check in again. I have been different with every pregnancy. My third baby first homebirth I didn't get a midwife till I was 30 weeks, I went to a GP for rhesus tests in the beginning and and ultrasound referral but that was it. THis time after two mc I was in denial for about 16 weeks, I didn't want to see anybody until I made it past 14 weeks at least. But since then I have wanted t meet with my middy and get to know her a bit more before bubs arrives.
Birthroom is set up, I have to wash and sun some towels and put in my clothes and baby clothes on the shelves in there but everything is done. I have started washing baby gear, 3 loads to wash all the cloth nappies I have. Dear dear dear someone has got a cloth nappy fetish!!! I washed all the wool/silk clothing tonight, so tiny, it made me feel a bit excited. I have had some nice bursts of energy the last few days so I am getting things done while the energy is there.
Only about 4 weeks to go... yipeeee. Midwife this week and we also spend time with the backup midwife too, then it's weekly apts. I know the whole pregnancy is a process but I am always interested in the little niggly kinks that need to get sorted out emotionally in the end. Especially between my husband and I, every little hurdle that we overcome and meet eachother on builds a deeper trust in our relationship, it's so beautiful...
not long at all Ladybirdflies!! eeepppp!!! so so excited for you!
I hear you on the ironing out at the end of pregnancy. it is so therapeutic and part of the nesting i reckon: to help solidify those bonds with those that will be there to love and support you through this transition of bringing a new person earthside.
