For all those that have called and for those that have not- no- the baby is still in the oven. At this point it feels as though I have a 10lb butter ball sitting on my bladder. Nice feeling no? At this point I am just trying to keep distracted from the inevitable pain that will follow. However, I spoke to my mother today and all her news gave me some hope. Apparently, I was the easiest of the births and was the fastest. She didn't even know that my head was sticking out until the nurse checked her when she came to the hospital. Oh, and all the five children she had were by natural child birth. She also commented that my sister gave birth to all her daughters with no medicine or anything. Well, I am just not going to obsess over what will happen and just happily accept what is coming.
In other news not related to the impending birth of a fetus, my brain is starting to turn to mush as all I do all day is watch the Barefoot Contessa and plan wonderful meals for my husband. I will report more when I have a surge or creativity again.
