The voting is now closed for the baby contest. Since today is not over, I can’t rule out if the baby will be born today or not. I’m actually hoping not because my midwife is not on call today. Instead its a doctor who had to be the one to tell me in January 2006 that I was in the process of a miscarriage…”It’s not your fault, you just have a bad baby.” (Lovely).
Anyway–what I was illuding to in my last baby post, was that my midwife and I decided I would be induced. The big day is tomorrow (Tuesday 5/8) and I have to be at the hospital at 6am. Its like Christmas here today with the kids jumping around with excitement knowing that tomorrow they will be meeting their new little brother. My mom is on her way up from the Philly area to stay the night and watch the kids tomorrow.
I can’t help but be nervous though. The last time I delivered a baby it was dead (I was 12 weeks pregnant and got to see the teenie tiny baby). So you can’t imagine, unless you have had a miscarriage yourself, just how scared and awful I feel right now. He keeps moving and giving me such back labor, but I am still so nervous that something will go wrong.
I know, TMI, but I just needed to vent that to other women that I know may understand just how I feel right now.
So keep me in your thoughts, and when I come home, I’ll be sure to post a picture of my gorgeous little newborn.

Best of luck and good wishes for you and all of your family!
I thought since I hadn’t seen any posts since last week that you’d already had the little one – congratulations! I’m sure by now, you’re in the midst of having the baby, so I’ll say a quick prayer for you – can’t wait to see a pic of the little guy!
Hi Shannon: Best of luck for a healthy, happy delivery! You’ll be in my thoughts.
Prayers for a safe delivery for you and your son! :)
Congrats to your new baby to be! I’ll keep you in my thoughts for a safe and healthy delivery! Everything will be fine! :)
