40 weeks & 2 days
We walked a very slow 3 miles through the arboretum to VeeVee for a Vee sandwich. Here’s hoping the walk or the tasty egg, bacon, & avocado sandwich will help move things along! 4:45 update: another mile and a half to get home, a bath, and then later off to dinner with Ron and …
40 Weeks
Today is the official due date. Let’s see what happens… Update at 10:00 pm – as of right now nothing to report. We’ll see what tomorrow brings.
No Bump Today
39 weeks and 5 days… Today’s visit to the midwives revealed that Bump is pretty happy where he is right now. Sigh.* I was hoping to hear that there was a little more progress at this point. With that in mind Jeremy and I ventured over to Somerville for a little Tu Y Yo spiciness …
Who’s in and who’s out?
Here’s the predictions from the window outside of my classroom. Out of the game: Harry, David, Olivia & Kenton (Kristin’s kids), Lisandro, Rosalia, Buddy & Karen, Laurette, Lori, Cynthia… We’ll see about Leon, Roz and Margelis today!
UCHC Shower
I wasn’t present for this one, but the staff at the Neag Cancer Center decided that Ellen (my mom) needed a shower too! How awesome are our coworkers?
Bump Room Update
Here are a couple of the latest shots from Bump’s room. As you can see, I finally finished the chalkboard! There is another panel below with a little bit of “wet nose art” by Calle. I’ll put up that picture later. I still owe many photos and posts about the wonderful things the staff …
Mathematical odds
Do the odds of labor increase with the inconvenience factor? Jeremy and Brian are renting a van to move furniture down to Norton today. Ideally we would like him to complete this task before the arrival of the baby. Murphy’s law says that labor will start at the most inconvenient time, so that would put …
Dinner out
We went out to dinner tonight at our favorite local haunt, Vee Vee. After a tasty dinner and a delicious dessert Jeremy decided to take the route home that was the bumpiest to see if he could “get things moving.” It worked for Liz, my sister, but we’ll have to see if it works for …
Pregnancy stereotypes – again
1. Tired. 2. Cranky. 3. Ready to cry at the drop of a hat. Then again, at this stage I feel my mood is like the weather in New England… if you don’t like it, wait a minute. Update: 1:15pm A cup of tomato, bacon, cheddar soup from New England Soup Factory has made a …
Waiting…
This afternoon we met a second pediatrician and may have found our match. It’s been great to have a pre-screened list from Ron to get us started on our search and I’m glad we were able to do this before Bump arrived. In my mind for the last month or so I had envisioned us …
