We spent a large portion of the evening speaking with our respective parents who are to be visiting us in September. By then, the baby should be here for enough time that we’re fairly comfortable with the basics, like how to feed and diaper him. For some reason, I am very self-conscious about this inexperienced mother thing, but I think that most of it is feeling weird about whether breastfeeding will succeed or not. Anyway, James is researching hotels (we don’t really have enough space to put people up here unless they’re keen on air mattresses in living rooms) for them to sleep at. Hopefully our new couch will have arrived by then!
