Today is the official start of my maternity leave. I am now 38 weeks pregnant, and in 2 weeks time, my bundle of joy should be arriving. I still feel good. Save for the heaviness in my belly, everything else seems to be ok. I kinda miss work. For someone who has always been working since she graduated, this is something different. It would’ve been ok to work till the very end, but I really do not want to go through my early phases of labor at work.
Now I am using the time to prepare for everything else we needed for Jakub’s arrival. I just finished the childbirth checklist to help us plan ahead for what’s to come. I know every woman is different, but it helps to know the common signs to look out for. When everything has been said and done, all I can really do is just wait. Oh, I can’t wait to hold Jakub in my arms!
