As the due date draws closer and closer I feel this tightness in my chest, I think its anxiety and I think it’s not about to go away.
As my wife becomes more and more uncomfortable and the due date approaches I can’t help to feel anxious, a flood of emotions is ripping through me, soon we will meet our baby, and soon we will be parents. My job now is to try and keep her relaxed and calm, I don’t want her to stress about when the baby is coming. The easiest thing I can say at this moment in time is that the longer the baby stays in there the more developed she will be when she is born.
The truth is as a man I am feeling a flood of emotions myself, I can’t bare to be apart from my wife even for the shortest of moments. I am lucky my job allows me to work from home and whilst I am at home I feel relaxed knowing that my wife is ok.
I just loaded the ipod up with some music to take to the hospital, one of the Albums is “body&soul, music the balance your life”, I bought this during the early stages of pregnancy and she enjoys listing to it.
So for now its plenty of walks, hugs and massages, hopefully the little one will make an appearance soon…
