8 days until my due date.
The midwife is still going to attend. Thank the powers that be.
If I could chose Kagome's birthday, I'd pick the 10th.
Then she could share with my brother.
I'm having 2nd thoughts about the middle name, Noelani.
It sounds too much like "Noel" which seems too Christian.
I have to revisit my baby names list for more options!...

I still like Aeryn or Skye best ... but you should wait and look her in the eyes first 
quirky:
I tag you!
No signs that baby is coming today so far, but it's early. I'm trying not to think about it too much, but it's hard not to.
There's not much on the agenda today. Pay garbage pick-up bill. Get some groceries.
Maybe I'll rent a movie or something. I need to find something to occupy my time.

I received a phone call last night at 2am from my midwife. The call woke me up. She was asking if I was a smoker. I thought that was a strange question in the middle of the night, but I answered her honestly & said "yes". She told me that she hadn't realized that & that the backup midwife (who would have had to handle...

this non-smokers shit is... well, shit!
i don't smoke but i have no problems with smokers, while in america it seems the hugest taboo that cannot be broken!
i thought midwives did it for the love of others... what kind of compassion they have, if they leave someone alone just cause they smoke?
blah... i wish you all the best, as usual.
ciao!

Im so sorry to hear that, I hope she stays your mid wife, but I hope you dont decide to try to do it at home with out a professional, there is way to much that could go wrong and if something did go wrong you wouldnt know what to do.
Dust Bunny says he is sorry and that if he were a little closer he would come over and nuzzle you.

Have I ever been this bored before in my life?
Probably, but I can't seem to remember a time...
Absolutely nothing of interest has happened to me today.
Has my life dwindled down to nothing more than impatiently waiting for the baby to arrive?
And what then? I won't have time to get online, go out, clean house, or even take a nap...but at least...

Stroke your belly and ask her
I didn't have the baby yet. I did have trouble sleeping due to racing thoughts & random contractions. And of course the baby wouldn't be still + I had to pee a lot.

I've eaten 3 or 4 times, had 2 showers & 2 naps, been to town 2 times & taken a walk in the 100 degree weather & I've come to the conclusion that today was a false alarm.
My contractions have all but stopped now & I'm thinking they might resume in the late evening or middle of the night tonight.

Wow it sounds like you had a full day.
I hope the Doc appointment goes well and I hope you have the baby tomorrow.
Tell me what you think about the movie and tell me what it is about.

2 in the morning is when it will start again
Just thought I'd write a quick blog to say that I woke up at 5:41 with a contraction & have been having them ever since. I timed them for a while & they seem to be coming anywhere from 13 minutes to 3 minutes apart. So, this could be it.
However, they aren't hurting much, so it's too soon to tell. I've already phoned the...

Best of luck!

it sounds like it is today to me
Last night my heart was beating too fast during a hot bath (technically hot baths are taboo for pregnancy anyway) & then I had some visual disturbances after I got out to dry off (like streaks & spots of light). It was like I was tripping or something.
I checked my blood pressure & it was on the high end of normal. I think it...

hope the pool shows up before the baby
I woke up around 10 & cleaned until 11:30.
The shower was at 2 & lasted until about 3:30.
About 10 people showed up (my living room's capacity).
I got diapers, wipes, blankets, outfits, a little money, etc. Score!
I had fun & my cousin Nikki stayed afterwards till 5.
So far it has been a good day.
