D-Day is almost here!!

2 days to go, and I don't mind saying that I'm terrified!! I'm convincing myself that something will go wrong with the c-section and that I won't make it. I've had one before, so I know what to expect, but that doesn't stop me from being scared. I have total faith in my consultant, she is fantastic, but there is a niggling voice chipping away at my confidence. I'm sure it will all be fine and that I'm just over worrying...as usual!

I think we're almost ready for our little arrival. Her clothes are clean and ironed. Bags are almost packed. We're going food shopping on Wednesday to keep the fella's going while I'm in hospital and for a few days after I come home.

Hubby painted a corner of our bedroom pink and made it all girly for when Isabella comes home. He wanted to make everything nice for her! I have to admit, before it was done I thought he was being a bit OTT, but it does look lovely. Very girly!!

Anyway, We're off to the seaside in a bit. We want to take the lil man out somewhere nice before Thursday. I'll try and post again soon.

Sorry it's been a while!!!!

Hi Y'all

Sorry I haven't written in a while, but we've been going through a very difficult time lately, lots has happened, and I just haven't had the chance.

Well, it's a little over a week until the big day arrives, and I don't mind admitting that I'm getting a bit nervous now!! We're nearly ready for our new arrival. The pink paint is up and the clothes are washed and pressed. We're just waiting for a new crib to be delivered as the one we were sent was in a sorry state!

I've been off work for a week already. I've been enjoying the time off. We've been going for walks in the forest (which, I thought, had brought on labour the other day!!), and been doing some last minute shopping. I even managed to get to my boss' works hen party last week, which was nice.

Anyway, I'm not sure when I will be able to check in again. So much is still happening and time is very scarce. However, when I can, I will.

One Year on......

Today is exactly one year since my baby girl passed away. It has been quite a surreal day. Difficult in many ways. We have found it very difficult to get going today, and only made it out of the house after lunch. We went to the cemetary, just to spend some time with our little angel. The lil man stayed asleep for most of the time...typical eh?!!! We're going to release a balloon at 8pm to mark the time when we believe she passed away. Saturday marks one year since our baby was born. Two very difficlut days that we will have to deal with for the rest of our lives..........

Losing a friend.........

Today was quite a sad day for me. A friend of mine, someone I worked closely with, passed away on 13th April, and I attended her funeral today. She had been battling cancer of the pancreas for 2 years. She was a very brave and determined woman and will be deeply missed by all who knew her. I, for one, will miss our long chats and the incredibly helpful advice she would give me, especially about my son. I always felt I could turn to her for advice, and always trusted that what she told me was right.

RIP dear Georgina. Gone but never forgotten.
