So I'm 31 weeks tomorrow - that's 6 weeks until full term, and 9 weeks until due. Eek!
Everything is going fine, but I keep getting really paranoid about toxoplasmosis - we have two cats, one of whom has occasional poo problems (she has diarrhoea today
) and catches things, the other who just jumps on the tables a lot. I'm washing my hands/everything as much as I can, but I keep feeling really worried about cross-contamination etc. etc. I've been tested and am definitely not immune, but I've not had any illnesses during pregnancy that sound like toxoplasmosis - haven't even had so much as a bad cold, in fact.
However, just because I keep reading that symptoms of congenital toxo can show up months or years into a baby's life, I think I'm going to get myself tested again after Herbie comes out. There's not much point doing it now because I'll still worry that I somehow contracted it in the last 8 weeks, and even though I'm 99% sure the result will be negative, I just don't want to worry about it.
Argh!
In good news we are nearly ready. We have a moses basket, so somewhere for baby to sleep at least, and the last few things we need to get are really just a cot, a few more reusable nappies, muslins, and a changing bag. Nearly there!
