Holidays

Totally get where you’re coming from, this is my second and my first was late, I was going insane waiting for the baby, I went out lots but I didn’t stay anywhere, I wouldn’t want to be away from home and my comforts for that long that late in my pregnancy.

I'm due 26th Jan and still not travelling to see family for Christmas! Better be safe and have one less thing to worry about, not to mention it will be nice to have some final 'just us" time with my husband before baby arrives.

I’m due Jan 14th too and sad I can’t see my family (but I would have to
Fly back to Ireland and so of course can’t) . We are hopefully spending Christmas with his immediate family ( 8 people) who are about an hour away. They are being understanding that we probably won’t spend the night as I agree I don’t think I would sleep if not in our bed but also making that call closer to the time and won’t be going to all the Christmas parties this year!

If that's what feels right for you then 100% do that. I think everyone has to do what is right for them.

I'm planning on powering ahead with my Christmas plans (Center Parcs for a week at week 37 weeks) and hosting Christmas day 38+weeks 🤣 10 people total, but all close family who can crack on and help themselves to anything they need!
