I’m expecting my second child in the next few weeks (am almost 37 weeks pregnant) and I can’t wait to meet my baby. For various reasons this pregnancy has been the most stressful 8 months of my life but now that the bulk of the pregnancy is over I’m feeling really positive about the future. Here are just some of the things I’m looking forward to:
- Seeing how my 3 year old reacts to his little brother and watching them both learn from each other. My son is so excited at the thought of having a little brother and although I know that it won’t always be easy, I can’t wait to have 2 little boys.
- Meeting up with friends much more often and showing off my baby to everyone.
- Making new friends and talking about all things baby related (feeding, sleeping, weaning etc.)
- Spending time with my sister and her 2 little girls who are coming back to the UK after living in Australia for 8 years.
- Attending baby sensory classes – I loved them first time around and am definitely going back.
- Having lots of time off work – am not due back until June 2011 and then I am planning on making some significant changes in my career.
- Getting my body back into some kind of reasonable state. I never lost my baby weight from my first baby so this time I am determined to get back into shape.
- Having some wine.
- Going horse riding.
It is such an exciting time and I really can’t wait. I will keep you posted on all the wonderful things that happen over the next year or so…
