    My wife & I are waiting on our first baby to decide it's good and ready to come out. Getting a touch of cabin-fever it seems :)

    That's quite a good looking hatching jacket! Congratulations to you and your wife for the coming addition to the family. Enjoy them; they grow super fast.

    Obviously bored, and I gotta agree with Dixie, it's a bit late for the no touchy. :coolsmile:

    Funny - good luck with the baby! Wish I could have one more, but three will do it - wife's body didn't respond well to number three. Cheers!

    Thanks for the well-wishes. Yep, we are ready to get this show on the road! I'm pretty darned excited to welcome this new little soul into the world, and I can't wait to finally get some snuggle time. She's been hoggin' it for 9 months already! Time to give daddy some cuddles!! I think Mrs. MWC is about ready to have her uterus back now...
    'Her guess date' is tomorrow, but by our calculations she's a couple days past 40 weeks right now & getting a wee bit uncomfy.
    As for the no touching, well, not exactly true. Don't you all know that's a good way to jumpstart labor? ;-)
    As Ina May Gaskin put it "it's love that got the baby in there and it's love that gets the baby out" :)

    Oh, and btw: I sent this pic to my Sis last night. Today she texts to tell me my nephew is making the baby some origami throwing stars. :coolsmirk:
    His sister was apparently writing the baby a poem about "flowers, love, and the sky". :)

    I'm a parent of a 19 month old. If I were you I would take a nap. I can bet you it will be at least 19 months til your next one.

    That's good advice. My wife is due in a couple of weeks with our second. I took a nap today on the couch by the stove. With a four year old and a new one coming I anticipate this luxury will soon deminish.
  14. PapaDave Minister of Fire

    Nope, there will be no more naps .....for the rest of your life!!
    J/K, of course..........or am I? :grrr:

    I have a 2yo, 4yo and one due in September. A wise person once told me when we were expecting our first to sleep when the baby sleeps no matter what. It doesn't work with 2 kids. I find myself trying to figure out where the three days that I lost track of went.
