Wednesday 16th -becci's due date!

Not a great night.But I guess that's nothing new!!
Was having text conversations with Becci in the mid doe of the night who seems to have started Braxton hicks contractions.. It sounds so similar to what I went through with Rachel it's quite scary!
Had A fairly chilled out day. Rachel was up at half 7 and then was having one of her clumsy mornings where she spilt her cereal everywhere, wouldn't get dressed and was generally being a little annoying. Or so it seemed to a massively sleep derived me!!
Thank goodness she was off to Mandy's!!
After we dropped her off, I tried to convince Jack to let us go back to bed, but just as I was finally dozing off, he woke up again and put paid to that idea. Dammit!
Anyway, we then walked over to the shop to get some nappies and other supplies. It was quite nice to get out of the house and have a bit of fresh air. Of course that is something that is totally different this time round, when Rachel was born it was fairly warm, so we spent a fair amount of time out in the garden getting fresh air, and now it's way too cold to be doing that, plus the garden is in a terrible state, following the autumn and winter weather as we just haven't been able to get out there to give it a good tidy up.
After some lunch, I had a long leisurely bath, well sort of and then spent a bit of time trying to convince Jack it was nap time again! I think I managed about 10 minutes as he was really restless. And as soon as I gave up and got up, guess what, yep he went off to sleep.
We had a fairly good evening with Rachel, although she spent the last hour at least, whining about everything - my tongue hurts, my toe hurts, I want daddy, I want grandma blah blah blah!
Oh well, at least she went to bed nicely. Well, briefly! She was awake and crying at 9, so I poppe up and settled her back down. Daddy got home just after half 10, by which time jack and I were uostairs, feeding in bed.
After that Jack settled down well, as usual for the first part of the night, and when I woke up again at half 1, Ben was in bed, but there was no sign of daddy. Am guessing he is with Rachel, although I didn't hear either of them getting up!! Definitely out for the count then, as normally the slightest thing wakes me up!!
Still waiting for news from becci. I know things have been progressing. Last I heard she was 7cm so nearly there. Keeping fingers crossed that everything goes well and that her and baby are ok.
