Well.. I failed.
This was bound to happen that I would forget a day. I have said I want to do vlogmas next year but I have no idea how I'll film and upload each day if I cannot manage to blog daily!
Anyways, a little catch up since my hospital trip..
I have been feeling much better, and baby is wriggling more again which is reassuring for me so that's good. Cough and sleep is also better as I can now breathe at night again without having to be so upright, and the Tums for acid reflux are definitely helping too!
Yesterday I picked up an Asda collection but aside from that I just watched movies and chilled which was nice. Then today I have deep cleaned my bathroom. Tomorrow's job is the en-suite shower and the downstairs toilet. Then I need to clean all skirting boards too at some point and then the deep clean ready for baby is done! But I still have time, and so I'm taking it easy each day and not overdoing it. I don't want to put myself in labour by doing too much when I'm getting regular braxton hicks as it is.
Oh yesterday I also managed to express some colostrum for the first time. Only the tiniest amount but I'm feeling proud of my body as some aren't able to express any at all. Colostrum is apparently liquid gold for babies, so I'm going to try and get what I can during the time I've got until she arrives. I have little syringes and have been expressing direct in to those and then topping it up over the day before putting it in the freezer. I need to get some ziplock bags and label them with the dates I expressed, so I know which to use first and therefore don't waste any. Although you can freeze them for 6 months which is great!
