mum to be

well, it's the final days for me and my big belly ;) Soon the wee one will be out, and my life will change drastically. It all happened so fast, getting pregnant as by accident, and now i'm about to give birth to a wee human being, or at least, i hope... what if it is a frog or a turtle? ;)) (my worst reoccuring nightmare)

If the muppet isn't coming out by itself, then they will start the delivery on tuesdaynight, the 21st... They don't want to risk it staying in there for too long (placenta failures, breathingproblems, hazards for both me and the little monster...)

I've enjoyed my pregnancy, wasn't sick, only had some moodswings caused by pregnancyhormones (yes, they do excist and they're hell when they start being , well, moody...), loved the many friendly words that were said to me by complete and utter strangers, loved the tons of caressings my belly had to endure during the last two months ;) As funny as it may sound, i'll miss being pregnant, but i'll love my wee little freggle when it's finally out...

now, only hope for the best, that he/she is in good health, has a good appetite and is a sound sleeper ;) I'll keep you posted...
