Birth Story

Birth story of Vancouver Terence, born at 41 weeks 3 days weighing 4030kg (Vancouver after the city and Terence after his Grandpa who passed away this time last year).
The birth was hell. My whole birth plan went out the window. I had planned to give birth at the Kaitaia maternity unit, in a......Read More

Baby's due date is tomorrow. No sign of anything happening. Looks like he's going to be late for his own birthday.
I'm getting nervous as the time creeps closer. One thing's for sure - it has to happen some time. And that time is going to be soon. He can't stay......Read More

39 weeks

Here I am at 39 weeks and still no sign of anything likely to happen soon. It's OK, I heard that it's rare for first babies to be born before their due date, but that 95% of babies are born within 10 days after their due date.
I have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. It's very......Read More

I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow. The "big day" is creeping nearer and I'm getting a little bit nervous. Just a little bit. Thankfully, all those hormones that make you feel relaxed during pregnancy are doing the trick. Without them I'd probably be a nervous......Read More

Last night I rolled over in bed and it felt like I'd rolled onto an object in the bed. It felt like a clothes peg or something in the bedclothes. So I felt underneath me to remove the object, but couldn't find anything. That's when I realised it was on the inside! ......Read More

Today we went for our 20-week ultrasound scan. The idea of the scan was to take measurements of things like head, heart, spine and kidneys and check that the baby's got arms and legs and that there's nothing obviously amiss.
I'm glad to report that our baby passed with flying......Read More

The baby's getting more active now - there's a lot of squirming around going on in there. Seems to wake up in the evening and is most active late in the evening and into the night - just like Dad!
Apparently the little one is about 25cm now. That's about a 5cm gain on last week,......Read More

I felt the baby move on Saturday, which was when I was exactly 18 weeks. When I had confirmed that that's what it was, I realised I had been feeling it for a few days. I had thought I might be feeling something for a few days, but I could never be sure whether it was gas, intestinal......Read More

Say you've got a large callous or some kind of growth on the palm of your hand. When you put your hand flat on the table, you can feel that there's something in the way, because your hand won't quite sit flush. You can't feel the callous, but you know it's there because......Read More
