|
Emotional Issues

|
Yes but I always do.
|
Dates with Hubby
|
Almost every second weekend. Aaaah the good old days when we thought that THAT was neglecting our relationship.
|
Twice in the last 9 months and we barely even noticed when months would go by.
|
How did time fly?
|
SLOW
|
SO FAST.
Having 3 kids around makes a huge difference.
|
Doing Errands
|
Was a bit tiring but I could spend hours slowly strolling baby stores.
|
Is the most exhausting and complex marathon I can do in my day.
|
Commitments
|
Nanning, life group each week, helped with 2 friends weddings, and was in cousin’s wedding party.
|
Life group every second week and just being Mom.
|
Packing Labour Bag
|
Easy, Exciting, and Extremely Organized
|
Overwhelming and I am still working on it. Packing for 6 people is crazy and complex. Hopefully I don’t forget anything but I have a feeling I might.
|
Doula
|
No
|
Yep and oh the difference it already has made.
|
Labour
|
24 hours of early labour, 7 hours of terrible back active labour then 5 hours of relaxed epidural active labour. Then holding Lil C in my arms!
|
I will keep you posted J
|
Best Part
|
The anticipation of that little life
|
Watching the anticipation of 3 siblings who are eagerly waiting to meet their new little sister.
|
JUST ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS
Me: “Lil C, are you hungry for lunch?”
Lil C: “Do you need to feed your baby Mom?”
Me: “Yep!”
Lil C: Pointing to his own belly “Okay you feed your baby and I’ll feed my Jesus.”
Lovely blog! Great comparison chart... and you are great (with child) too! :)
