Countdown

I am 8 months pregnant with a baby boy. We'll call him Joaquim.

My pregnancies are not meant for the faint-hearted as they usually include transatlantic moves, medical errors, confusion, splitting the family apart.

As I write my household is crossing the Atlantic Ocean in the MS Elaine and arrival in Rio is due on the 24th October. By then I'll be 32 weeks!

Patrick is commuting between Joburg, London and Rio, while Antonio and I are sharing our lovely - but tiny - apart-hotel in Ipanema. And hopefully he'll get transferred to Brazil or get a new job here very soon.
