Revelation - there are lots of pregnancy / labour / post baby things I haven't done

[rufalina]

Sweetie, you are steps ahead of me if that is the last of your list... I am only a week or two behind you and I have done NOTHING... No car seat, no cot, no clothes ready, no hospital bag, no birthplan, no sleep, no exercise, etc...

These last few weeks get so hard there is no point in beating yourself up over a few things not quite finished... Just relax and do what you can, and breathe and think of the moment when you will be holding your little one and all that you have not done will fall away.

hang in there... xo

Thanks for all of this. I was just having a bad moment yesterday.

Therefore to make myself feel better (rather than do anything on the list) I went and had an emergency pedicure. Feeling much better!

lol!!!
i'm having an 'emergency' facial tomorrow night...

actually stuff like that is more important than most of the other stuff which can fall into place when you need it, getting a pedicure or having time like that to yourself will be a complete luxury once bubs comes along...

i had actually planned to treat myself to something like that once a week for the last couple of months of my pregnancy, but it hasn't eventuated.... i know i will regret it once bubs comes...!
