Shit I am having a baby

All of a sudden it is becoming real that i am having a baby. You think his would be obvious but you forget.

It came after the anti natal appointment when they showed us around the delivery ward and you see the bed with all its features for birth and you suddenly realise your wife has to give birth and your going to have a child

At this stage my wife just wants the baby to be here so she can stop worrying so much (i don't think this will change much after the birth) and also to be able to do more as she is able to do less and less as the weeks go buy

We have most of the suff we need now and technically are ready, but there are often times when I go shit, I am having a baby.

London is no place for a pregnant woman

Me and the mrs had a trip to London recently. We had booked it about a year ago to take my niece to a concert and even though my wife was 29 weeks pregnant at the time we thought nothing of it.

The train down was nice and relaxing but as soon as we got there it all changed. I went into over protective mode and was on edge all of the time. On the tube I had to run on and reserve a seat as no one would offer, and people were so rushed and pushy I was so concerned about people bumping the bump.

When we walked places she needed to rest allot of the time but I was so tired from being over protected I enjoyed the breaks.

One plus side you can walk in anywhere and use the toilets if your pregnant and as the partner you can too. This is great especially when you see other people being turned away.

The trip was enjoyable but in hindsight I should have cancelled and should have opted for a few lazy days, especially as I will never get lazy days once the baby is born
