Thumbs up I'm going to be a birth partner!

Hi all

I'm quite excited, my friend is currently 40+3, she asked me a while ago to be her birth partner but because I was due 6 weeks before her I said I would need to see how things pan out when my baby was here. Soo, she has another friend accompanying her as well (but isn't sure she will be that supportive) and asked me again yesterday if I would be able to.

So I've said yes, I just need to get pumping and get my supply of expressed milk built up, either that or the other half can bring Aidan to the hospital to be fed and I can nip out every 3 hours, hmm I'm sure it will work out.

I'm really positive about it and hope she gets to have a brilliant experience, she's not very confident in herself so I've been talking through what she would like from her experience and trying to build up her confidence, fingers crossed!

Oh and my order of Baby Catcher arrived this morning so I can't wait to read it!

Hope everyone is ok.

Natalie
