Right, we're off to do the year one school drop. It's Frasier's first day of year one.
Excited? Nervous. Caleb, what are you wearing?
Spiderman.
Wow!
Morning! So we've just dropped Frasier off at school for his first day of year one, and
it went really badly. It didn't go badly, but he really cried, and I thought I had it
all together, but as we pulled up, he said, "Oh, my, I've got a funny tummy," and I just
really remembered having that when I was little, and I just started crying my eyes out, because
I'm heavily pregnant and stuff. But I don't think I was very helpful. Matt was like, "Pull
yourself together!" I was like, "Woo, woo!" But anyway, he went in with his friends, so
that was all good in the end.
I thought I'd blog today, because today is my sixth day overdue, and both of the boys
came on day six. So I'm feeling like, today is either the day, or today is my last day
being pregnant, ever. So we've just got a chilled out day planned. My mum's over from
Canada.
Hi!
Yeah. And we've got Caleb on the sofa there, and we're going to take him to a little gymnastics
class, and I might jump on the bouncy castle, and see if I can get things moving. And then,
have a wok pineapple curry. Just anything to get this baby going, because tomorrow,
I'm booked in for a sweep, so I would really like to avoid that if I can. But, yes, I'll
take you along with us today, and hopefully, I might go into labor at some stage.
Eeh, can't even see my toes!
Got my lolly!
It's funny, yeah?
Yes! I'm going to hit you in the face by it! Rawr!
I got my lolly! I'm just bouncing on the birthing ball, trying to get things moving.
Come out, baby!
Come out, baby! We want to meet you!
The baby's doing ...
Yes.
Yeah? Because he's shaking. What are we watching?
PJ Masks!
Well, we've just been hanging out at home, watching PJ Masks, and stuff like that, and
I have had a shower, and then a 10-minute bath, because loads of people commented that
a bath can bring on labor. So I did that. I don't think anything's happening to us.
I feel better. I've put some makeup on, and now I'm going to go and do the school run.
Did you miss him today?
Yeah.
You missed him when he's at school?
I'm on this chair!
Right, the boys wanted to play on the slide. [inaudible 00:03:19]. We've made a soft play
for flips. Whee!
We're just going to try and get the crazy boys to bed now. [crosstalk 00:03:36] They've
had a bath, and now, they've got the cutest little onesies on that my mum brought over
from Canada.
The onesies [crosstalk 00:03:46].
Ah, that's a nice cuddle. Aw! So nice, cuddles. Is it Caleb's bedtime>
Yes.
Let's read about Cinderella!
Yeah. [crosstalk 00:04:30]
Well, the boys are down and we are off out now, because my mom is obviously over from
Canada for the baby, so we have a live-in babysitter, so we thought if the baby's not
coming, we are going to make the most of it, so we're going out for dinner, and shopping
at Lakeside. Like a few things to return and stuff, and we were thinking if we walk around
it might bring the baby on. Yeah. So, we'll see. Matt's put the hospital bag in the car
just in case anything happens. But I said that we shouldn't put it in the car, because
if we didn't then it might actually come, but I feel like now that we've got it, it's
not going to happen. But, yeah. Boys have been really cute. Frasier had a good first
day at school, and I just sort of hugged them as if it was the last time that we were going
to not have a baby. But I don't know.
Hi guys. Sorry I didn't blog that much when we went to Lakeside last night. We were just
walking around and I was trying clothes on, and I just felt huge and a bit depressed that
nothing was happening. But, yeah, still no baby. Went to bed last night hopeful. Nothing
has happened. I had a few Braxton-Hicks, but nothing really and I'm due today to go in
for my 41 week check and stretch and sweep at 12:00. I'm really gutted if nothing happens,
because I've actually never had to have a stretch and sweep before. The boys have always
come on the day that I'm due to have that. So, I was thinking maybe I'd refuse it again,
but actually it might just be a means to an end and I just need to get this baby out now,
so I think it's worth a shot. It's better than being induced, I guess.
So, that is today. We're going to go for a long walk this morning. We're going to do
the [Gruffalo 00:06:20] trail in Brentwood and then we're going to go to the hospital.
Matt is going to take me just in case, if anything did kick off, then he could drive
me. But, yeah. I think I'm going to end this blog here. Sorry, I was really hoping that
I could title this blog, "Last Day of Being Pregnant." But I don't think I will be able
to. So, anyway. Yeah! Thank you so much for watching. I hope you enjoyed it anyway, and
I will see you soon, by.
We're going to [Bali-Land 00:06:46]!
