Don't hold your breath

Cuinn is hitting 38 weeks at a chunky 8lbs (apparently we have an impressively fat little kiddly - the OB did his tummy measurement twice to make sure) ... aaand refusing to engage even a little bit. He's not even pretending to think about engaging. So, I'm going to continue to sleep lots and next week we'll see if there's any change, or any suggestion that there might be a change.

Eviction will definitely take place in week 40.

I think it's time we start taking bets on date and time of birth, and birth weight. The winner will get a self-administered pat on the back. You can go for method of birth (zipper vs natural) too if you reeeally want to.

yeah, i think the little, i mean lardassed fellow will hang on til the bitter end.

induced on due date, possible epidural, natural birth after 10 hour labour.

altho, like katherine WHO CARES - i just want a cuddle . . . SO, I CALL SHOTGUN (which is barely realistic seeing as how we don't get to auks until the 21st!)
