    Just been talking to parents in law. It seems that the big head is a Dixon trait, my husband and both his parents had it. Clearly I have my husband to blame. His sister on the other hand was microcephalic, although she was born with cerebral palsy so a different issue. It turns out my husband was born a week early, but only because his mum was induced due to high blood pressure, otherwise he might have gone full term. I'm keeping fingers crossed for a birth a week or two early if the head is large.

    We agreed to move on but then went to SILs birthday party and no one from the family said hello to me. I just about got a goodbye when we left.

    Went over yesterday and was a bit better. Still made to feel like an intruder in what was my home though. I don't really understand how the relationship will develop from here.

    It will work out but not sure how at the moment.

Tomorrow I'm going to have a lie in and have a good clean and tidy of the house whilst OH is at work.

    I've got a late start at work today as I'm working the evening. Only two evenings after this one before I go on leave. I finalised my annual leave this week so I know I'm definitely finishing on March 24th, the same day as my colleague who is due around the same time. I found it surprisingly sad finalising it all, I've been looking forward to going on leave. It's not like it's all I've ever wanted to do either, I like it there but if I could make a living as s musician I would.

    Morning ladies! We have woken up to a winter wonderland this morning - it's quite pretty out but then I don't have anywhere to be today so can sit inside watching the snow falling from the comfort of my sofa.

    Today I'm researching caterers for our reception party - I'm thinking a hog roast might be in order!

    Have a lovely day one and all x

    I've heard we're meant to be getting a lot of snow towards the end of March, but they've been saying this for months now and it's not materialised yet.

    We had about 5 mins of sleet/snow on Wednesday but that's it.

    It won;t be the first time we've had a white March/April. When my eldest daughter was a baby we had a white Easter. My son and his Dad went in the garden and built snowmen and an igloo!

    I'm just worried about my poor plants in the garden - they had just started to come up thinking it was spring! And my buddleja will have to wait to be pruned!

    We had a white March about 3/4 years ago, the snow stayed on the floor for about a week afterwards too. That won't happen here this time but I do wish it would stick for a little bit! I love the snow.

    I find it tends to snow more this side of winter rather than earlier. I do like the snow - if I have nowhere to go and can just hibernate at home!!! But the likeliness of that happening is zero. Hate driving in it, it's horrible. It used to be the best when we were at school and would get snow days - was so exciting waking up in the morning and seeing snow and waiting for the school closure announcements on the radio!

    That's lovely GF. I could end up having a tricky delivery so I might end up doing likewise afterwards. My baby has taken after his dad and granddad and has a big head. He's also breach but hopefully will turn on his own, there's still time. He's clearly determined to keep the midwives on their toes though.

    Weather in Cardiff is a bit changeable at the moment. It hailed when I came in to work at midday, but now it's a bit cloudy with a fair bit of blue sky visible. I watched a squirrel run up a tree earlier with a biscuit in its mouth. So sweet.

    Oh no Ec, would you consider an ecv or breech delivery depending on what kind of breech baby is?

    I fed Freddie and myself, then was going to pop to my parents with him but noticed I lost my fbit. When I left the hospital and walked back towards the car park I thought I head something drop, turned round but could not see anything, so drove back up there and nothing there. Also walked into town to see if it dropped there but nope. Gutted.

    I'll certainly go for ECV if he hasn't turned when he get to that stage. I think he's bum down at the minute. I'd rather avoid a C-section if possible so if he can be delivered naturally even in breech I'll do that, but my biggest concern is that he's delivered safely. I kind of feel like I'm missing part of the experience if I have to go for a C-Section, plus it's a big thing to go through and the recovery is a lot longer. I'm less bothered about the size of the head, although the midwife did mention the possibility of inducing early if that looks like being a problem. We'll see what he does, he might well decide to be nice and turn on his own.

    Was hoping to get off a bit earlier today but doesn't look like that will be happening, got a tender due in at 5 and as usual things are left until the last minute - things that I can have no control over, just have to wait and rely on other people. Means as soon as I get home it will practically be time to leave again to pick OH from work and get myself to dance... need to go home though as I need to get changed into my dance stuff and let the dog out for a wee. Pain in the backside.
