You didn't come.

Dear Thumper,

Hi. This is Mom.

So - you didn't come. But that's okay. We can wait.

And it was all a fairly good trial run for the real thing. Think Dad and I did well: no panicking, lots of calm organisation. Hopefully it goes the same way when it's really happening.

However, the last few nights have been unbelievably uncomfortable. It's hard to breathe, hard to find a comfy way to sleep and everything aches. There are also loads of pretty painful BHCs and many, many, many wees.

Last night I dreamed that your name was the M-name. You know, the favourite. And - unfortunately - the one that's very, very similar to what Greg & Soni have named Sadie's new baby sister, Mika. But in my dream you were already here and you loved your name. So maybe that's the second of two signs...

I am shortly having a delicious preggie massage and then taking it easy. There's work to be done, but I can't be bothered. Have already drawn up Dad's sms contact list for the hospital and typed up our birth plan. So that's enough for now. Coffee!

Have a beautiful day in there, Thumps.

May you like your name - whatever it is.

Love you.

Mom x
