2 months down, ?? to go!

I have been in hospital for 2 months today and very nearly had the baby this afternoon! As expected I have had on off bleeding episodes throughout my stay but last night's was the heaviest to date and since I have reached the magic number of 34 weeks, I thought they may operate but the bleeding stopped so I am back in the medihotel.
The time has actually passed quite quickly. The hospital staff have been lovely and my friends have been so supportive offering to visit and mind the children.
Life has been very hectic for Andy and although the nanny was great with the children she wasn't a very good housemate so things unfortunately came to a head last week and she left on Friday night. After the initial shock and panic we put it behind us and I spent the weekend online looking for a new nanny on the fantastic findababysitter.com website. Andy interviewed 2 girls this morning and Maria starts tomorrow (she is Mexican so Andy happy as he thinks the kids will be fluent in Spanish by the end of the month!)
Andy spent the weekend catching up with his good friend Roger who flew down from Sydney and judging by the photos it was just what the doctor order.

Well, hopefully in the next post we will be announcing the birth of our new baby and  confirming that I am well on the road to recovery - keeping everything crossed!
