Look for Bemjamin Story.

It's now about 7 AM and I'm almost completely ready to go. Surprisingly I slept but since I went to bed really late I only got about 4 hours. Hopefully that will sustain me. I'm not as panicky/nervous as I thought I would be but I'm wondering if it'll all hit when I get to the hospital and they bust out the IV. Have I ever mentioned that I hate ( Read more... )

I went to my last pre-delivery appointment yesterday morning and I'm a little more frightened than I was before. My doctor poked and prodded around my belly to feel the baby, busted out the measuring tape, and said "Wow! You are ALL baby. And there's a LOT of baby."

Probably the most revealing quote about Quentin Tarantino (sp?) BY the man himself:

That's all.

Last night my coworker and I were drilled on what to do in case of certain emergencies and the whole "Code Adam" situation was brought up. A Code Adam is when a parent can't find their child and it involves locking doors and searching the store from top to bottom. Just thinking about it gives me shivers. Thankfully, we've never had a situation ( Read more... )

For anyone who cares, my appointment today went really well. My doctor seemed very pleased with how everything is progressing and my blood count and glucose test all came back fine. Bump is head down (I was afraid he was going to stay breach) and measuring 30cm head to rump. We're going to start having appointments every two weeks and then once ( Read more... )
