5 weeks and 1 day to go... exactly

Saw the consultant today and booked the cesarean for 1 November! I have to admit I'm having slightly mixed emotions about it now that it's all booked. It just feels so strange knowing when the baby will arrive. I'm going to have to give it all some more thought. I'm sure it's the right choice for us but I need to get totally comfortable with the idea. They said I can change my mind at any time so there's no pressure.

Saying that, 1 November would be a lovely day to have Cupcake. It's Nikki's birthday and it's a Tuesday - 'Tuesday's child is full of grace'. It's also the day after Mom and Dad are due to arrive so I wouldn't have much time with them before the birth but we would have lots of time afterwards.

I just need to think about it all a bit more. Not going to happen tonight though. Feeling totally exhausted so I'm going to have some cereal for dinner and go straight to bed.
