Today is a momentous day! If 'Bob' was to come today he wouldn't be classed as premature. The 37 to 40 week slot of pregnancy is considered a safe time as Bob is fully developed and his/her lungs are strong now.
To mark this momentous day I have now become a member of the fat foot-itus club. That is to say that I have one right fat foot most days now. Apparently it is quite common to swell at this stage of pregnancy (I am carrying nearly 3 stone more than usual) and this is called Edima. Also my fingers feel like sausages in the morning and ache. Nice.
Sleeping is getting worse these days. I have to swap the side I am sleeping on about once every two hours now (and normally coincide this with a toilet break). This is because my circulation seems to be shot to pieces and I get a dead leg, arm, hand (or other body part). Poor Matt, it doesn't result in the best nights sleep...
On the plus side it won't be long now until Matt and I are parents, poor child...
;-)
