You Dummy!

Or, things not to say to a Mommy-to-be when baby is four days late.

- Think about all the extra weight he's gaining!
- Come on... haven't the first forty weeks had some high points?
- Maybe it means he'll be early for stuff down the road!
- What's a few more days when it's been nine months?

I could keep going, but it's probably best to say as little as possible when baby is late... and getting later by the hour. And I can't say that I blame her; I can't imagine how forty weeks have really felt, so I can only guess that 40+ is becoming even more uncomfortable and tiring.

Son, if you're listening, we'd *really* love to meet you... any time now would be good! :)

Love,
Dad
