Poor Jamie

We went to the Doc yesterday.  She told a very sad Jamie that it looks like our daughter is in there for the long haul.  The bright spot was that if the 6th of November came around, our doctor would be willing to induce.  I believe Jamie stops every hour or so, looks at her stomach and demands “COME OUT TODAY!”.   I fully blame the non-early birth on Jamie’s parents.  The told her when she was younger that they hope she has a kid “Just like you!”.  This means our daughter is going to be difficult and its already showing.

Jamie’s current refrain when asked how she’s feeling is “All done. Just done”.  Something wonderful for me though, is now Jamie wants to be in bed at 8:30.  I love my sleep and now all I need is for her to quit going to the bathroom every 30 minutes in the night.  Maybe she’ll sleep on the couch so I can get a full nights sleep?  Is that asking too much?

    Well, I do feel for Jamie… But, that said, I have to stick up for your unborn daughter – she is NOT \being difficult\, lol! You posted that and she still had two full weeks left to gestate before even reaching her due date!

    I would also blame Jamie’s parents, specifically her mother. But then I like to blame lots of things on your Mother-in-law.

    Oh, she’s ready to come out now. Lungs are fully developed, she’s the right size and length, and she has run OUT of room to wiggle. She’s trying to come out by kicking a hole out of the side of my stomach (a most unpleasant feeling). Due dates are just a guess, and I’m saying the docs guessed wrong!! No November 6th!! How about tomorrow? I would LOVE for Mikey to be right about something in his life!
