I just had an awesome meeting with our doula. She was also our doula during Isaac's pregnancy and birth, so it's nice to have that familiarity and consistency. I really do love her and I'm so glad she's got my back again this time around. We talked a lot about how I can work on not letting the traumatic bits of Isaac's birth affect this birth and she offered a lot of support and guidance on what I can do to help create a safe, positive environment during my birth.
The fact that we only have one more meeting before the big day made me realize how close it is!!! Before I know it, labour will be happening and I will be giving birth! I am excited and scared all at the same time. I feel like I have a lot to do, but at the same time I don't know what that all is! It's a weird feeling.
I do know we need a carseat. So I better get on that. And I need to start sorting through the bins for all the wee little girlie clothes from when Maddie was little. Awww I sure look forward to seeing some of those sweet little clothes on a baby again! And I also want to knit Baby Girl a blanket. Better get on that pronto!
But for now I need to stuff some diapers and then get to bed and look forward to another U/S tomorrow. Gotta love baby peeks!
Love the baby updates! She will be here soon!
