Just rambling...

I should have mentioned yesterday that I felt the baby for the first time! I think it's about 2 weeks earlier than when I was pregnant with Billy, which I believe it quite common. I have no idea why? Of course, it's super faint and can't be felt from the outside but it was an exciting milestone all the same.

Just this second, I have also realised that I am more scared of labour and delivery this second time around. I was very at peace with it as my pregnancy with Billy progressed, but I guess it makes sense as I know what to expect this time. Absoloute living hell! Hopefully my body remembers what to do and just takes over.

In other news, one of the lovely ladies from another team, who we spend a lot of time with, is also pregnant, and is exactly a week ahead of me. It is her third baby, and she is also having it at Higashi-Fuchu Hospital. She had her second boy there, about 18 months ago I think, so I will definately be listening to her for guidance! One of her boys was overdue, and the other was on time, so with a bit of luck, our dates will coincide and I'll have a friend in hospital.

And finally, for a bit of fun, here are the top Japanese baby names for 2010. We may entertain the idea. Or we may not.
