SPN - Final week

When we thought that we still had at least two weeks left before the "big day", the doctors have finally decided that Olivia will be born by c-section on Wednesday 10th June 2009 between 12.00 and 12:30. How is that for confidence!

I don't know who is the more excited? Monica, myself or Teo our dog who suspects that something big is about to happen, but he can't put his paw on it. He will probably wonder what the strange smell is when I bring the first freshly soiled nappy back to our apartment from the hospital. The vet told us that this is something that "we have to do" and I am not looking forward to transporting the contents home!

As you can imagine, the last few weeks have been non stop preparation, so we will be enjoying the final few days before Olivias birth by having as much extra sleep as we possibly can. Everyone says that we are going to need it and as we are first time parents we are listening to advice and helpful tips from family and friends alike..
