Now he is finally here, our little boy. He was born on the 16th of August at 5.39 am.

We have no idea what his name is. :-) It's really really difficult because it has to sound good both in Swedish and in Finnish. Sami likes Emil, William and Elias. And I like William, Elias, Isak and Elliot. The 20th of September we'll have the name ceremony, so by then we have to decide. :-D

Since we don't have a big appartment, the baby doesn't get his own room. So I have prepared a corner in the office where all the babystuff goes. Not the bed, the baby will sleep in our room for the first couple of months. We borrowed the nursing table and the shelf that goes with it, from Samis cousin Jenny. I added some fabric to hide the bottom shelf and I think it looks really nice. :-)

Today, Sami and I cleaned the whole appartment very thoroughly. So now we are prepared. The baby can come. :-) 

I can't believe I'm already in week 39. Thursday I started to have som painful crontractions (the body is only practicing). But I was by myself on the beach, so I got a bit worried. :-) But I drove home and after a while they stopped. But now I wont go anywhere alone. It feels safer and it's too hard to walk. Sometimes the baby really pusches downwards and it feels like I have a sharp ball between my legs. :-) And all of a sudden the contraction starts. :-) For the first time I feel limited due to the pregnancy. 

So far I have tried to suppress the fact that I have to give birth but now I can't avoid thinking about it and it is very very scary. All the pain and what if something goes wrong. At this point I just want it to be over with.
