Baby is a'coming!
YOWZERS - we're having a baby! (like, today I think)
My water broke this morning at 8:20 am...but labor still hasn't kicked in. We are hanging out at home waiting for contractions and starting some home remedies, but I'll be heading to the hospital this afternoon if it doesn't go anywhere.
Yesterday we had the follow-up level II sonogram yesterday and he grew and is all in proportion. He still measures a couple weeks behind (33 weeks gestation), and I'm preterm at this point anyway, so he might be a tad on the small side. Any healthy baby vibes you can send this way will be greatly appreciated.
I will ask Cara to update her blog with any future news, since I assume I might be a tad occupied for the next couple days.
Damn...a baby....hard to believe, really.
Congratulations! And I'm sure he'll be fine--I was two months early and only 3 lbs when I was born almost 39 years ago--it's just a slightly rough start while he gets his lungs working properly, but I'm sure he'll be fine!! Great news--I'm so happy for you!

Yahoo! I am so happy to hear that everyone is doing well. You and Dave are going to be amazing parents, and I can't wait to meet the little guy. I just know that he and Miles are going to be friends (and if they don't like each other, we will make them play together until they do).
