So, I'm overdue. This means I am officially allowed to be grumpy, over emotional and hormonal. I wish I hadn't got it in my head that this baby was going to come early, but I did, so now I actually feel 2 weeks overdue and not just the 2 days overdue that I actually am. Each night I'm going to bed thinking that something will happen through the night and then I wake up in the morning totally disappointed that nothing has happened and I face another day at home, bored, alone and just playing a waiting game for my little baby.
On a positive note (yes, I am an eternal optimist) the nursery is ready for her, she has so many people checking every single day that are eager to meet her and I just know she's going to be showered with gifts once she does arrive. So much to look forward to!
Unfortunately for us (and Bean) we lost James' Nan yesterday after she was unable to recover from a stroke a few weeks ago. As sad as it is for the whole family (and Bean who shall never get to meet her Great Nan) I do feel relieved that she is finally at peace. I am a firm believer that she has passed in order to let Bean be born. One in and one out they say and I think this is true for us. All we have to do now is make sure that Bean is here in time for us to say goodbye to Nan properly. I'd hate to have to let James gone alone, that's not what wives do after all. I want to support him and be there for him.
So Bean, its now a VERY good time for you to come into the world and meet us all, come on, more than anything right now, we need you to bring us happiness and remind us what life is really all about.
Bump on Due Date. 31 August 08.
