Eight Is Enough
Have just entered the eighth month which means we have approached the beginning of the end, the home straight, the bell lap or any other cliches which fit the bill.
The classes have left the world of the theoretical and embarked on hard-core Tachlis. Talking about contractions, breathing exercises, what to do when the water breaks and the like.
As I have said before once you find out that you are pregnant the excitement is replaced by the waiting game or when things get a bit testy; the blame game.
The eighth month tends to be overlooked in the haste to get it over and done with. After all, this is the last time for the rest of the lives that we know life as it is sans child.
We say goodbye to the old world and say hello to the new one. A brave new world which contains babysitters, breast-feeding, baby Mozart and nappies.
Can't wait!

Beshaah Tovah!!!
I'm so excited, I could plotz!
Beshaah tovah - you guys have been in my thoughts. Enjoy your time together and enjoy your birth experience. I'd be interested to hear if you guys are doing hospital or home, midwife v. doctor, if it's not too personal a thing to ask. I've been doing a lot of reading on the subject and am interested to hear different viewpoints.
