A Watched Pot Never Boils
Yes, you read right. 40 weeks and 8 days pregnant. I'm not "late". She's right on time for when she needs to be born, ok? First pregnancies for women of European descent are, on average, 9 days over 40 weeks.
I am going into seclusion for a bit, to spend a last few days in peace with Adam and my mom. I appreciate all the well-meaning phone calls and emails, but jeez, don't you think that we'd either let you know if something had happened, or we're too busy at the moment to talk to you and will get in touch as soon as we can? So please don't be offended if I don't answer the phone or answer email for a few days (well, my computer is back in the shop and Adam needs his laptop, so that one's a no-brainer). I still love you all, I just can't take the pressure of others' expectations right now. I'll give birth when Lilybug and I are damn good and ready. Thanks.

Well, I saw A's mom today, so I didn't need to ask you (though I've been wondering!). I know how annoying that gets. She'll come when she is ready. Enjoy the next couple days, even though everyone is impatient. Because, well... once she's out ya can't put her back in! Thinking of you guys :-)
