When will you come?

OK.. so it's Wednesday 10th December today, you are due Tuesday 16th, so less than a week away, but when will you actually come? Before, after, exactly on your due date? Who knows?

Well.. I think we are finally completely ready for you. Mummy has packed a bag of things to take to the hospital, some cute little tiny clothes for you to wear and keep you warm and cosy. I can't believe how small you will be. Your big sister Cara is just so big now compared to a little baby. Mummy's been trying to explain to Cara about you coming to be part of our family, so we're all getting extra excited - and we hope you'll be here to celebrate Christmas with us.

Last week at Mummy's appointment to check that you are doing well, the midwife said that you had turned round into a breech position, this would not be good for Mummy, and might mean that you would have to be born by C-section. Mummy really would like for you to be born naturally, so when we went this week, Mummy was really happy that you had turned back round to be head down - well done! Now you just need to stay there, OK.

Cara was born by C-section, and if that turns out to be the way you are born, then it'll be for the best, as long as we have you out in the world with us all will be great. Your big sister is so special, I think you are going to be the best of friends.

See you soon, little one.
