At the risk of sounding dramatic and whiny . . .


I THINK I'M GOING TO BE PREGNANT FOREVER!

Wow! Still no baby?!?!

It will be over soon enough, and (so I'm told) you'll be wishing for a quiet night of just the two of you.

REALLY?? I thought for SURE, you would have had the baby this weekend! So much for the birthday baby huh?? Well good luck! I just know it's going to be ANY minute...or the minute you let your guard down ;)

DRL said...

Aww! Do you have a point in mind where you might be convinced to be induced? We just went for a walk down the avenida and Mr. DRL was asking about you and if you'd had the baby yet.

Good luck!

Hi Emily, I feel your pain. I was 8 days past my due date with my Emily when they induced me. They broke my water and put me on a petocin drip. She was born 8 hours later. The days from August 4 (my due date) to August 12 (her birthday) were the longest of my life. You have a right to be whiney. Hang in there. It's all worth it.

My all-time pet peeve from four healthy, full-term pregnancies was this: You STILL haven't had that baby! After a few suns had risen and set after my due date, I was envisioning really ugly things to do to the next person that said that. It helped to fantasize.

But, I agree. Those were the LONGEST days of the whole nine months.

May God bless Mama and Daddy and Baby Z. You'll forget this trauma the minute she's in your arms.

Oh, Emily! BIG HUG! Praying for all three of you!

Mei said...

I hope she arrives shortly!

To distract you, I found a Brazilian version of Eric online: I think this guy looks somewhat similar to your husband, Emily! I found this picture today and wanted to share it.

Please don't hate me if you think it doesn't look anything like him. . .

Emily said...

Thanks for all the kind words and prayers! She'll get here eventually (I'm told) but wow the wait is tough! As long as everyone stays healthy I don't want to induce before 42 weeks . . . as of today (Monday) we're 41 weeks and 2 days.

Dianne, thanks so much for the laugh!

And Mei, oh my gosh, that is too funny! It does look A LOT like Eric! I have a picture of him with his hair combed over like that just playing around and yep, they could totally be related!!! (Unfortunately, I have been forbidden from sharing it with everyone. hehehe)
