Today is July 15th.
It's the day I've been looking forward to since I found out I was pregnant...somewhere around November 10th of last year.
It's my "official due date".
I really have no idea who made it "official", but I'm here to tell them that they don't know squat.
The countdown widget on my blog sidebar says today is "GO TIME!"
I just opened my daily calendar, where I typed so long ago that today is the day. It states that I am already "eight hours overdue for this appointment". Apparently it thinks I was supposed to pop at 12:01 am on the dot.
The Lentil could care less.
She's shakin' her booty from my middle to my right just below my ribs, with an occasional kick to my lungs for good measure.
I've only just realized this morning that getting her out of there requires me to give birth.
I'm a little slow...and also scared to death to go into labor.
As far as I'm concerned, she can stay in there for a while longer.
I mean, not too much longer, because I'm having a hard time breathing. Then again, who really needs to breathe these days?

I hope she comes soon!
Same here. First conscious thought was - Carolyn's supposed to arrive today. As an anxious bystander, it's kinda like waiting for a really cool ups package and the darn thing keeps getting held up in California or something. And, if there's one thing ups and baby due dates have in common, it's that they never give reliable E.T.A.'s. They're always showing up before anybody's ready for them or well after they were expected.
Hang in there. And, let us know what we can do to help!
You will do great! Don't worry too much about labor just get your epidural early (that is my suggestion) and it wont be that big of deal. (this of course coming from the biggest wimp of all time and has to have c-sections) But get the epidural EARLY!! I can't emphasize this enough!!!! Good luck and you will be amazing! Love ya
Erin, I waited 2 weeks from the due date for Cassidy. He took his time in coming, but that was when he decided. He also "fit his skin" when he was born. No wrinkles there. He was so cute we decided to keep him instead of putting him back. The worst part was everyone asking when or how much longer. We even went for long,dusty, bumpy rides on the flat to get something going. Didn't work. It will all be good.
oh sad day. I hope she gets here soon. If you need anything let me know.
Really? Cassidy and I were due at exactly the same time? I never knew that. I was a week late, and he was two weeks late.
