Packing the hospital bag

Hi all.

Last night we packed most of the hospital bag. We should have done it a
couple of weeks ago but haven't gotten round it until now.

The amount of stuff we're taking we don't need a bag, we need an articulated
truck. We've got baby clothes, nappies, and clothes for Gem, Clothes for me and
food like chocolate and crisps to keep Gem going through the labour.

The only thing left to pack is a couple of tops for Gem and a couple of
T-Shirts for me.

The Birthing Centre where we're going let me stay while Gems in.

I've got to tell you that this is feeling a little unreal. I mentally know
that some time in the next 2 months I'll be a dad but it's hard to really
comprehend that. We're all ready but I don't think this will really be real
to me until once I hold my daughter in my arms.

I have no idea how I'll feel when that happens.

Take care.

Nick.
