This is awesome! Praying extra for you today and this week....hoping that your midwife gets some good rest (and you TOO!) and that this little guy has an easy, perfect arrival

Going to give this a try for dinner tomorrow night if I'm not in labor by tomorrow afternoon. http://www.tasteandtellblog.com/scal...lant-parmesan/

Midwife appointment went fine today. BP took a jump just since it was measured at the OB on Wednesday (122/80 then, 120/90 today). But my pee was fine, no headaches, no funny vision, no swelling. She says baby feels like he's 8 and a half pounds. o.O She's going to come by on Monday to check my BP again (and I'll stop at a pharmacy on the way to church and check it there on Sunday, too, and text her the results). She did NOT schedule me for another prenatal and said, "I'll see you Monday if not before." She seems convinced that my BP spike is b/c the baby's going to come in the next couple of days. I'm not so convinced yet.

Did you get to try your yummy recipe for dinner then? That's a healthy strapping boy in there!

I did, and it was delicious (and thus far, ineffective, lol).

It sounds , regardless of whether it "works" or not!
If baby's holding on for New Years - only a couple more days!

[Harmony96]

Nothing.

He'll come! Try not to stress, or "wait" for him... just let him come when he's ready

UGH my family. Gah. I do NOT need this today.

So my sister calls me and asks what I'm doing. I told her that I'm working. Then she said, "Mom wants to know if you're having any contractions." AAAAAHHH!!! I didn't even say anything. I hung up on her. I texted her later and told her how my day's been going, emotionally, and then she said something about the longer a baby bakes, the smarter they are, and that maybe he'll be born on my nephew's birthday (which is 1/6 or something).

I talked to my mom a day or so ago, when she asked twice in one day if I was having contractions (via text), to please not ask me that anymore, and she's been good about that. So given what my sister said, I texted her this afternoon, too, and said, "I have been hear tears all day today about not being in labor yet and I am in no mood at all to discuss it with anyone, so please don't ask anymore either directly or having (sister) ask. All it will do is make me cry." She said that she didn't ask my sister to do that (which could very well be true, given some of the things this sister has done in the past) and told me to breathe. She said that they're just excited for me and to not be sad.

I should warn people ahead of time not to do that to me. I'm mean.
