Thirty-six weeks.

I am actually only a few days off being 37 weeks pregnant, which is considered full term. Gulp! I am realising that you could be born pretty much any day now. This is exciting and terrifying all at the same time. Over the last week or so I've been feeling really 'full' of you. My tummy is stretched tight and you don't have a lot of room to move around in there so I feel every little twitch. My hands and feet are swollen and sore, expecially my left hand. So many weird symptoms!

I have been slowly getting together the nursery together for your arrival. We have the bassinet ready and lots of nappies and clothes. I still need to get a few more things, like the pram and change table, but I think if you came tomorrow we would be fine.

My grandma had a dream that you will be born on June 11, which is about three weeks away. I wonder what kind of person you will be? Maybe you are an artist, or an amazing musician, or you will dedicate your life to helping people. You might be really funny or loud or shy or smart or sporty. You could be blonde or dark or a redhead. Can't wait to meet you and find out.

Love,

Mum
