For all that the last month has been a great one filled with lots of challenges met and a lot more socialising, there has been one big bad cloud looming over my head. With the due date for bubs less than a month away, I have not organised what to do with the rascal when I go into labour and the worry of who to ask has been suddering away in the back of my head.
Part of the problem is that rascal was 12 days late and I hate the idea of having to impose on other people's Christmas celebrations or preparations. It is hard enough asking that of close friends and family, but when it is people that you have only known for a relatively short period of time, it becomes even harder!!!
Today I made a passing comment at MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) about it and was inundated with offers of help. It is good to know that there are more people around me who are willing to help than I initially thought. Now to get rascal comfortable with the people who offered to help and all will be well :-)
Glad to hear you have something sorted. it all falls into place in time. It is scary though when you have no one around that you know well and even harder knowing it is so close to christmas. Like you I had many offers so close to the time and it all worked out.
ReplyDeleteall the best and I look forward to hearing about the safe arrival of your little one :)
