I am writing again! Second time in a year! I am in my 39th week now and we are really just waiting for baby to come out… the sooner the better according to Mom, that’s for sure!

So now I know what it is like to be heavy and in pretty much constant pain - it’s either the back, or the pelvic area or contractions … and we welcome the contractions, let me tell you! I have been allowed to do housework and all sorts of things, which is great, and I am doing my best to get the message to baby that now is the time! I am so looking forward to meeting him

I am not doing a great deal at the moment: organising the house, cooking, cleaning, baking, as much as my back will allow me to. I’ve also been able to catch up with other preggies, and spend time sleeping, which is, after all, one of my favourite activities, and that which i will soon have to give up, n’est ce pas??

Our small group have been great and so supportive, I have to thank them publicly, THANK YOU! They have all given advice, prayer and gifts/loans that we very much appreciate and treasure. As much as I love them I really hope not to be able to see them for a couple of weeks as I really really hope to be in hospital!

My parents arrive Sunday night, which will be great! A big load off my shoulders as Mum will take over the running of the house Thank you Mummy!

Right I have some cooking to attend to - Hopefully the next time I write will be to say that I have a beautiful baby boy to show you all!
