I thought for sure that I was going to have a baby last night. I was having good consistent contractions but they blew over at bedtime. I slept so good, possibly from all the work my body had been doing, possibly because God just likes me. I have to a…

Nothing happening here. I was supposed to meet with Kathy today but she has someone else in labor and has to be with her. I’m only a little jealous. If I go into labor today I’m sure Kathy can send her back up, or maybe labor and delivery number one w…

I wake up a lot in the night. Early this morning at around 12:30 I woke up to turn and adjust the weight a bit and looked at the clock. Officially overdue, I realized. Only by 30 minutes maybe but overdue none the less. He will have to pay a fine whe…
