Yet another update, but very little to tell...

Well another day, another update but very little to tell. I am feeling kind of exhausted today, not sure why but I did pack in a fair bit with Dave yesterday (his day off) and then only had about 6 hours sleep. Probably not a great idea!

Point form seems SO much easier right now hehe - so that's what Ima gonna do!

• Had a midwife appointment yesterday. Everything is good, baby is healthy and heartbeat is strong... he hasn't engaged any further and she's very slightly concerned that he doesn't seem to be a very big baby and my fundus isn't growing at the rate it should the last week or so. She says gut instinct tells her everything is fine, but if he hasn't come by next week when we meet, and my fundal height hasn't increased much, then we MIGHT consider just getting an ultrasound for peace of mind. I'm not too concerned - I sense that everything is fine - but better safe than sorry :)
  
• All this week I've had more tension in my abdomen, occasional period-like pain, a few strong contraction feelings and lots of tightening. I've been more tired too, and a bit hungrier but craving stuff like fruit - I actually went out at 8:30pm last night to get some fruit before the supermarket shut! I HAD to have it! :) Not a bad craving to have I suppose - and that watermelon tasted like nectar of the Gods haha!
  
• Dave bought a little stuffed monkey yesterday - it's SO cute, with big googly eyes, and I thought he was buying it for the baby seeing as we call him our 'monkey'. But he decided to keep it for himself and take it to work to put on his desk! LOL! Mind you - it's as a tribute to baby, and will end up next to a picture of bubby so... I suppose that's ok!
  
• I got the last couple of things yesterday that I really need before bubs comes - a head support for the baby capsule and a pram/stroller toy. Now I just have to work out what brands to buy of the last two things I need - a breast pump (been told to go electric for that if possible) and a baby monitor. If anyone has advice on brands, please share! :)

Well that's it from me... bubby has hiccups right now, which he gets nearly every day, it's the oddest feeling - he jumps in regular intervals and I feel it right down low. Actually - now that I think of it - I am feeling it lower than I used to. I hope that's a good sign! I have been telling him it's OK for him to come any time now, and I REALLY want him to arrive in the next week so he's not overdue. Fingers crossed!!! Will keep you posted :) Who knows, the next post I leave here could be the "He's Arrived!" post! :)
