Prophecies?

My mother-in-law, P, reported yesterday that she's been starting to have the same dreams about water that her mother had before P gave birth to each of her children. The women in the family have been touted as being "a little bit fey" as they would say in the day if you had some psychic tendencies.

I myself have started having dreams about caring for small animals, which is what i always dream about when i'm really dreaming about babies. The other night it was a dream about Hubby and I going to a country market and buying a chicken, and I was escorting the chicken home in a gogomobile. There was a bit of anxiety about having to get back to the market to help H who had a deal going on another chicken. For some reason you can only escort one chicken at a time? I guess a gogomobile isn't that big.

So I guess this bodes well for something happening soon?

Countdown

She's one day late. No sign of anything happening yet. It's hovering around 35 degrees C this week so not that comfy. And sooooo tired....

I cannae hold it, Captain...

Holy crap - only a week 'til this baby's due. This morning at 4am (coz sleep is no longer an option) I realised that I have been so crap at blogging that I have barely said a thing about the experience. Well can I just say now I am thoroughly over it. Honestly I don't know how anyone manages to have subsequent children after the first. It is just so uncomfortable, restrictive, and tiring. How can anyone do this twice? It must be all those hormones making you forget what it was like the first time.

I also realised in the dead of night that I haven't spoken about any of bub's crazy little character traits. She is so active I have nicknamed her Squidgy, for all the squidging around she does, and TD or Tiny Dancer, for all her disco moves. Oh and she loves electronica and dance, and the theme to that Night Garden kids show on the telly. And just this week she has found that you can kick out with both feet at once, nice and wide apart, to make Mummy sit up bolt upright in shock when you need a bit of space. Loving that one.

I have a feeling I'm going to be doing this for a while yet though, despite being only 7 days till she's due. I reckon she'll hang out at least 'til Aquarius moves in. She so has the Aquarian character. Two of us in the house - how will Hubby cope?
