It felt really strange this morning not having to go to work.
I did get over it quickly with going for a long bath and then watching Bones on dvd. I'm sure that will keep me amused for the next week or so.
I was looking at the baby things aswell. Baby clothes are everywhere. I'm thinking about starting to wash them and put them away. I didn't want to start washing them too early but was thinking it's just over 6 weeks until my due date so maybe it's not too early anymore. Sometimes I think I'm in denial about it being February next month. Initially my plan was to start with all the neutral colours and then move onto the blues but I've decided I feel confident enough he is definitely a little boy so I'm not so bothered.
I'm also planning on writing out a list of what I want to put in my hospital bag(s). I know in my head what I should be packing but I'm thinking seeing it on paper will let me relax a little. On Wednesday I'm hoping to pick up some nighties with buttons on the front to wear while I'm in labour and for afterwards. Also need to buy some underwear which I won't mind being ruined. Other than that I have everything I'll need. Just need to check with my midwife if I'll need to bring my own bottles/formula just incase I'm unable to breast feed. I really want to breast feed so hoping I'll be fine.
I have my scan tomorrow morning at 9am. Early. This scan is just to check the position of the placenta. When I had my emergency scan up at RAH last month they said placenta looks high enough so this is just to confirm that. I felt nervous earlier thinking about it but that seems to have passed. I'll probably feel nervous while I'm in the waiting room. I am looking forward to seeing my little boy again although I imagine he'll be really squished in there now.
Think that's all for now. I'll update tomorrow after my scan.
