Finally, a belly shot


So even though I'm in my 29th week of pregnancy, and am quite heavily pregnant, I still find it odd when strangers ask me when I'm due. I still feel as though my pregnancy isn't obvious, when it really must be. With just over 10 weeks to go, I have no idea why I feel like this. Maybe it's partially because I'm not emotionally ready for the idea of two children. Does that make sense? It's not that I'm not excited or looking forward to it, I just feel like my brain needs this next 10 weeks to work its way around the whole idea. I still feel like a lot needs to be done between now and then, but I can't work out what exactly. I kind of wish I had a crystal ball right now, to peek ahead into the future so I can reassure myself that everything will be OK. That I'll manage with the sleepless nights, that maybe the breastfeeding will go better this time, that Elliot will be a sweet and loving big brother, that before I know it the boys will be the best of friends.

  1. Haveing 2 kids was really an eye opener for me...not in a bad way, just a different way. I'm sure once that little guy gets here, you will laugh that you were ever nervous or unprepared.
    This is something I read the other day..it made me laugh :)
    Having 1 child is scary, having 2 is hard, having the 3rd is the easiest thing n the world..Good Luck!
