34 Weeks Pregnant

Holy crap.

Did you know that I only have 21 days until I'm full term?!

The ladies in my pregnancy buddy groups are actually having their babies. I mean, they are actually no longer pregnant and instead have a baby in their arms. No, honestly! I'm not shitting you, they are really doing the whole labour thing.

It's getting to that point where I'm feeling a bit stressed about it all, not the having a baby part - bring it on!!! I say - but the whole ticking boxes part. 

I've just grabed all my muslins, changing mat covers, flannels and towels and started washing them. It broke my heart a little to take them out of their little neat packages but apparently it's very important to pre wash everything.

I can only assume this advice is sponsored by companies that sell baby fabrics so that you can no longer return them.

I got most of mine from John Lewis, I loooooooove JL, but even they might be pushed to take the items back seeing not only have I washed them but I've painstakingly removed all the labels too. You know it makes me wonder... Should they advertise items as being 100% cotton if they go and stick a plastic label on it?

I've still got a lot of other things to do too. I need to sort out my nappy stash and pack my hospital bag and paint the nursery decoration. In fact I think I need some shelves in the nursery too. Not to mention all the boxes and dividers required to organise all the baby stuff.

Then there is the Christmas stuff too! I've already got two cards so I really need to pull my finger out.

I'm thinking licking and sticking tomorrow and then post office and Ikea on Monday.

Some really evil bitch, well she isn't really at all actually, just suggested her thing being banana milkshake and now I'm chewing my arm off trying to figure out where I can find a banana milkshake at 10:30pm when it's a 30 min drive to the nearest McDs and Tesco. It'd be sooooooooo gooooooooood though.

Pregnancy wise - oh fuck it, I'm going to McDs now.
