Just a Few Days Away

Triage

As I write, this my wife is 4 days away from the due date our baby boy.

It's been a rather tense couple of days over the Easter break. Baby is still moving around but the movements have been different, which has prompted us to visit triage a couple of times for monitoring. We also have a couple more visits to the hospital lined up in the coming days and we may end up looking at being induced.

Right now, my wife is in good shape but finding it very difficult to move around. Pain in her belly, pain in her back and pain in her calves. But, we're on the last leg and it's just a matter of time before we welcome the new member of the family - and quite honestly I can't wait for it! As nervous as I am about the whole thing, I have confidence in my wife being able to do the business and I have confidence in the staff at the hospital giving us their support. What I most look forward to is being able to hold my son in my arms.
