Just an update: Not looking like it’s going to be today! Feeling about the same as yesterday. I’ve felt some stronger contractions, but nothing regular yet– just a few here and there, kinda hard to notice or keep track of. Tomorrow I will see my doctor again so we will see if there are any changes and I will update again. I’m still guessing this weekend at the earliest, more likely next week. I feel way too normal right now to possibly be about to have a baby!

Looks like Natalie might be planning for an early arrival!

I am now:

4cm dilated and 80% effaced

and

baby is at -3 station

(for those familiar with labor lingo)

In other words, she could wait a week or more, but could very well be here tomorrow!

All this and I can still barely tell when I am having a contraction– not at all what I expected.

Andy and the doctor predict by the end of the week, I am thinking (hoping?) she’ll wait till next week. Please humor me by leaving a comment and making a guess. Keep in mind, Saturday is a full moon! Don’t babies like to be born during a full moon?

Pictures, just for fun:

We’ll keep you all updated.

Well, they’re not really new faces, as much as they’ve moved to a new home on the Internet.  My brother and his wife have started up a new blog, hosted over on my dad’s site, where they’re keeping updates about their family, and pictures of themselves and their little son Jackson.
