Cat now enters the next chapter of her pregnancy and has just left
work to go on maternity leave. This is a full four weeks before the
due date, but she thought, with the eternal struggle of commuting
and the fact that she has plenty of holiday leave she has to take,
why not?
Today’s antenatal check up revealed that everything was normal
and the little one is now 3/5th engaged into the pelvis. My active
imagination immediately starts to picture a mole like creature
burrowing her head deeper into the sand. The midwife confirmed
yet again that the baby IS normal sized for her development –
despite the fact that Cat has the smallest pregnant bump anyone has
ever seen. Compact seems to be the universal comment from
everyone.
Buggypram thing still not arrived at the pram shop. Why does it
have to take so long? I ring up for the third time – I’m not sure they
know how to handle customers on the phone, all this new
technology seems all a bit scary to them. Heaven forbid they might
actually have email one day. Anyway, we quench our thirst for baby
goods by buying yet more essential items from Mothercare World.
That Edmonton retail park boasts some of the highest concentration
of warehouse retail outlets in London, including Ikea, which we
also went and spent all our money in.
All seems so calm and quiet, guess we better make the most of it
while it lasts.
