Amen! I love the end bit. Great to hear about how you've been going on, and yay for seeing friends in Perth. I'm sorry I haven't reached out to get in touch. I have been thinking of you often, and hoping good things for you. It has been great to hear an update from you - the only improvement would have been a pregnancy pic! <3

Hi Kat,

Best wishes and prayers for the rest of your pregnancy and adjustment to motherhood. One day you will look back on this entry and smile I think. It is scary with so many things being unknown and it's easy to imagine the worst (magnified by hormonal changes) and noone can tell you definitively that none of these things will happen. But I think that you will know that in hindsight whatever happened was for the best and that the fear was probably worse than anything that ended up happening. That said I haven't been there myself and so I can't really give too much helpful advice, especially on the labour front eeep! (That will make for an interesting entry I'm sure :p)

People would be happy to help out with supplies and stuff if you did find yourself in an unpredicted situation. Plan what you can and just chill about the rest (or make yourself stupidly busy so you can't think too much!)

Love sars
