(weddings, flights, move-in/out dates, job interviews/starts, graduation...) <br />Last year at this precise date that was so exactly where I was at. I had just assumed/hoped the whole pregnancy that our daughter would be born a few days early because her brother was, and because it would fit our life better - her papa has 5 weeks of summer school holidays, and we wanted her to arrive during that time thank you very much. Her due date fell 3 days before the end of school holidays (and papa would only get one day off school if she was born during school time). We had moved 1 month earlier, so at first it was all a flurry of getting settled and I felt like her arrival was IMMINENT a month before her due date. But eventually we got moved in, settled. And waited. And waited. 2 days after her due date I made peace with the fact that she would not come during summer hols, accepted it and was actually happy to wait the next 2 days. She came when she was ready and it was awesome, she was so "ready" to be in the world, a much better start. <br />It probably feels like she will never come but SHE WILL! End is in sight!Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16257061804030532012noreply@blogger.com
