A waiting game like no other

I struggle to believe that my due date came and went. I was so sure this little baby would make an early entrance just like it's big brother. I have had signs of early labour for the last three weeks and it's been nothing like how I felt leading up to the birth of Lance. I feel very confused and a bit worried about what's to come. My worst fears are to be induced and having the labour forced if the baby isn't ready. So I try to switch off and just take it day by day, but it's easier say than done.

Thankfully Lance helps keep us busy and the time is just flying by. He is growing up so fast now. This is really the first time I have felt like time is running away from me. I think because I have been with him almost every day of his life, I have followed his journey up close and been a big part of it. But now he's becoming a confident wee boy who makes his own decisions and is thirsty for knowledge and experiences. I feel like I'm slowly becoming a by-stander and my role is changing massively. He no longer needs me to guide him, he just needs my encouragement and support.

Hopefully we will meet the new addition to our family very soon and start a whole new busy and crazy adventure. Until then let's keep busy 😊 xx
