We finally found what worked, Thursday was the only day this week that would have been inconvenient for the baby to come. Murray was starting up his Photoshop class for the new year, and having the baby today would mean canceling class, calling all the students to let them know individually, and risk looking like we were going to take their money and run. Not to mention the fact that I had favors to finish for my Mom and brother. But who would be so foolish to ask favors of a ticking time bomb anyway?
This morning we all came to the hospital for a non stress test, and I assumed that we would be in and out. BUT, the baby's heart rate wasn't responding well to even the tiniest of contractions. Before we knew it, I was in the labor and delivery room and hooked up to an IV. The Grandmothers are here. Murray, has made all the cancelations for his class, and now we are in for the long haul or the short haul depending on ow my body responds to this drip. Wish us luck!

Are you wearing your designer birthing gown??
It was totally the spicy food from last night...
The kids prayed for you at lunch.
Happy pushing!!
SO EXCITED! And seriously, where is your designer birthing gown?
Yay!!!! I knew holding Lily would do it!
Everyone is so concerned about the birthing gown!! Don't worry. It's packed. But I figured I'd wear it during recovery. I'll post pictures! I'm still on the drip still waiting for progress...
Congrats! I hope everything comes out OK :)
GOOD LUCK and CONGRATULATIONS in a little bit!! :)
Best of luck to all three of you!
I had a nightgown that I wore when in labor. I bought a cheap but pretty and comfortable nightshirt and added snaps from neck to knees so it would be easy to get access to my stomach for monitors. The plan was that it would get trashed in labor. Somehow it managed to stay clean the whole time, and everyone was commenting on it. Then started bleeding a lot and that was that.
In short, your decision regarding the designer gown is probably a good one. I can't wait to see pictures of your little bundle of Loveland!
Hooray and congratulations!!!
Yay! Good luck! Looking forward to seeing pictures.
AHHH!! Good luck Cicada!! All the best!! xo
Yayayayayay!!! We are so excited.
Seriously, you take dedication to blogging to a new level--whether you were dictating or not, that, my friend, impressive.
Enjoy!
Exciting!
Good luck!
The fact that you are posting/responding to comments WHILE IN LABOR is mind-boggling to me.
Good luck!
Good luck!

Good luck! And enjoy that hospital food. Mmmm. Well, at least when they let you have food instead of ice chips.
I've been following your blog secretly for a while, and I guess it's time to oust myself! Best of luck, and congrats soon to be, or already!
I am sort of a "blog stalker" I have been reading for a year or so, and I am SOOOO excited for you to have this baby! Can't wait to see the little one! Congrats. The first few months are hard, but eternally blissful! Good luck, and I can't wait to read all about it!
Congrats! You and Murray will be great parents.
Good luck. I can't wait to hear how it all turns out... and I don't even know you. :)
Hooray! I hope it's quick....can't wait to see photos!
Happy New Year! Happy New Baby! I'm rooting for your new family from New England! (Love your blog)
