22 months

My first born is now 22 months!

I have been finding it a bit hard lately, with our eminent arrival of baby #2, and with all that has been happening (finishing work, selling house, and moving house - all of which I will write down at some point!) to really spend as much quality time with Cadell as I would have liked while we still have this  one-on-one time.

He is still not really talking much, although he is comprehending so much more every day, has figured out that there is a baby in mummy's tummy and will cuddle and kiss my belly. He will also offer the baby a drink through my belly button as he does with all his toys and the dogs these days. He did say 'Baby' one day, and I think he said 'birdie' also. Birds are his favourite thing still, and he loves balls and balloons, playing outside, the dogs. He's not as keen on the TV, but when he does watch it he loves 'mr blooms nursery' and 'Justin's house'.

He is becoming a very helpful little boy and will follow simple instructions well. His general nature is still very sweet and shy and caring. He does however have typical boy in him, and will hit and kick as he is testing his strength. We have noticed that he will obviously change personalities and becoming very cranky, tantrums and lots of crying/screaming when he is not well (very not well not just a cold) as he has had 2 double ear infections in the last 2-3 months and still has one inflamed ear and while he was unwell and not getting enough pain relief he was so different to how he is normally.

Bethan's Birth story

In the week or so leading up to Bethan's due date I had been having a lot of painful braxton hicks which we thought may have been the start of labour, but unfortunately did not eventuate. On Friday the 20th March I had my 40+2 appointment, where they did a stretch and sweep and the Dr said he thought I would go into labour that night or the next day as I was 3 cm dilated already, my waters were bulging and everything was looking favourable. I had some contractions Saturday morning but they fizzled out. Then on the Monday I had more contractions and bub wasn't moving as much so we went in to be monitored. She had a few decelerations but everything was fine in the end. They did another stretch and sweep and I had to go back in the morning for my 41 week appointment. They booked my induction for Friday 27th and I was to ring at 6 am to find out when to go in. I rang and was told there was no beds and they would ring again in the afternoon to let me know. In the afternoon they ...

39 weeks and 2 days pregnant

I'm now over 39 weeks pregnant. I feel like I will be pregnant forever, no labour signs or anything. I'm not too uncomfortable, it's just getting hard to look after Cadell this pregnant. Starting to have trouble sleeping and aches and pains etc as well. I'm going to try and update this regularly, and we need to take some good family photos this weekend before bub comes as I'm feeling bad that we haven't documented this pregnancy much. I want this baby just as much as I wanted his brother, so I hope he never feels as though he wasn't wanted. It's just different with the second one, and with everything we have had going on...time has been in short supply.
