40 weeks, 4 days

4 days has gone past the due date, I should be out there now, but Mum's womb is so comfy, I decided to stay in a little bit longer. Mum told me, the wardrobe is full of baby clothes, the hospital bag is packed, the car seat is installed, just wait for me to kickstart, but ... let me stay in for longer. I know it's chilly now, I am waiting for a sunny day! ...
Recently Mum and Dad seems to become impatient (they often nag about my coming out). I can feel the tension, as weird things happened: yesterday noon Mum ate some really really hot Vindaloo, too hot for her to bear, later she told me Dad ate most of it and froze the rest, for him to eat on another day! (I am sure the Vindaloo was not intended for him!) Yesterday afternoon Mum, Dad and the grandparents went to Market Bosworth Country Park for a walk. On such a rainy day, with such muddy ground, they have walked for 2 hours!! Really weird, isn't it? Today Mum and Dad were trying to get some Red Raspberry leaf tea from Holland & Barrett, but, the shop was closed on Sunday. For lunch, Mum ate some super hot pizzas from Papa John. (Has she forgotten the unbearable Vindaloo?) The spicy food made me dizzy for a long long time. I nearly decided to come out, but, I have my own idea, so I am still waiting, waiting and waiting...

JJ! Tell mum it's way too late for raspberry tea, she should have had that weeks ago. It's tasty though, so why not drink it anyway, but that's for mummy, not you! Doesn't the thought of tasty milky cuddles tempt you one little bit? But then you don't know what they're like, so you don't know what you're missing. Ah, the tales Tara could tell you about tasty milky cuddles...

Auntie Alex, you are right, it's too late for raspberry tea. I can tell you, mum has had raspberry tea since 34 weeks for 2 or 3 weeks, but then stopped, as she ran out of the tea and was too lazy to get some new one. She did say the tea was nice. Today my grandma (Dad's mum) suggested that Mum could skydive to urge me out, as Mum was wearing a pulli with Skydiving picture. How scary for me! Milky cuddles, mmmm, doesn't sound bad. I will ask Tara when I am out. ...
