Bump is becoming increasingly active and growing at a rate of knots, I am as big now as I was at 9 months with baby one; I was advised that I would be a bit bigger second, but I’m worried I’m carrying a 10lb baby around, luckily at the moment it is all bump and has not spread elsewhere (Yet!!!).
Bump is very well behaved, however the same cannot be said about big sister who is being a handful at the moment, delightful during the day but and a demon at night, she has decided she doesn’t want to go to sleep until gone 10pm each night a mere 2 ½ hours after her bedtime, its hard work when the evening is the only time when I catch up on housework after working all day, but such is life, I think she’s getting husband and me into some early practice for when Bump arrives.
I’m having a caesarean delivery with Bump, late complications with baby one called for an emergency c-section, and have been advised to go for a c-section again.
They say the memory of childbirth fades, however can’t quite say I’ve forgotten it just yet so I’m fine with my decision to have a c-section and miss out on the labour bit!!
It also means I can organise Darcy and get her settled in with nanny and granddad for a few days whilst in hospital but admittedly it does seem quite strange knowing exactly what date Bump will be delivered on; at least with going natural you’ve got the element of surprise!! It also means Bump will be here 2 weeks earlier than expected.
