Baby Lana's Born
posted on 23/02/2008
On February 12, four days after I went on maternity leave at about 10pm when my water broke. There was meconium in the water so we called the hospital and they told me to come in. We arrived before 11pm and talked to the doctor and the midwife about what to do. They think I should be induced so after midnight they put me on a syntocin drip and by 5.17am the next day, my baby was born!
Gory details to come....

A few more days and I’m off work. I’ll be finishing up on the 8th February. I’m enormous but I’m ready to meet our little girl! It seems to be a problem sleeping at night but I’m very patient. There’s only 21 days to go anyway. Russ and I can’t wait!!!

Lana’s been moving really strong! I like it when she moves so I make myself sit on the chair so I can watch her move. I think she moves freely when I’m seated on the chair at home than in the office chair.
That’s why I want to sit in the chair even if it means doing nothing. Russ & I would watch her poke her hand or elbow or knee in different parts of my tummy. It’s weird but it’s amazing.

Weekly Weight 61.5 kilos. I’m 35 weeks pregnant. Another 35 days to go and we’ll meet our little angel! She’s been getting really strong and big I think. I could feel even her slightest movements. Sometimes she keeps me awake at night and it hard to get a comfortable sleeping position as my tummy gets really big. I’ve been eating light meals to avoid heartburn.
My nose if puffed so is my face. My clothes are getting smaller as my tummy grows bigger but I don’t think I’d be buying more maternity clothes as there’s only 3 more weeks before I go on maternity leave. I’m trying to finish all the things that I need to do in the office so if I need to give birth early then my tasks are done. I told Russ about it and he thought it was funny.

Baby Dinosaur
posted on 10/01/2008 Thursday
I had a strangest dream last night! I dreamt that I gave birth to a baby dinosaur! It was really strange because when I was feeding the baby dinosaur on the day I gave birth on it, it hopped off my arms and went out of the door...walking!
I read that it’s completely normal for pregnant women to dream of something weird like that.

I’m now 33 weeks and 2 days pregnant! There’s only 47 days to go!!! It was fascinating to watch our baby yesterday during my scan. She’s grown a lot and she opened her mouth I wasn’t sure whether to yawn or something. I can tell that she’s got a little girl’s face. The sonographer told me that she’s already in vertex position and is unlikely to move the other way because of the limited space. I can’t wait to meet our little girl!
I did have a tummy ache in the middle of the night last night twice. I wasn’t sure why or whether it’s related to my pregnancy. I just rubbed my whole tummy and kept awake just in case I need to go to the hospital. I’ve fallen asleep patting my tummy and when I woke up the pain was almost gone. Could it be just my muscles preparing for the big day?! I also enjoyed my hydrotherapy class yesterday. It’s just so relaxing in the water. I’ll keep doing it until I give birth. I still do my antenatal yoga at home on other days but I want to keep going with this for both our sake.
