Well tomorrow we turn 38 weeks. Which means we have two weeks and one day left. Of course you won't hear me complaining if it happens sooner than that. Today for instance. Today is always a good day to have a baby. LOL

So I've been trying various home "remedies" that might help move things along a little faster. I've been walking a LOT. Yesterday I tried eating some really spicy food... Yah, I would not recommend that to a friend. And the friend who recommended it to me is no longer going to be my friend. All it did was make me feel like I was dying a slow and painful death from the inside out... and no antacid was strong enough. I think I'm still burping up jalopenos...

I don't think any of those techniques work for anyone. It's just a great big mean joke on pregnant people.

Well, I do have hope in knowing that, to date, no pregnancy has ever lasted forever. So the likelihood that mine will be neverending is rather slim. That said, I hope to be seeing an end to this pregnancy in the near future. Even if I go a little late, it's just a few weeks. That never killed anyone, right?

It's been a fun ride. But I'm ready to get off now, and see the peanut.

Toby does know he has to log on here the MINUTE that baby is born and let us all know, right? Tell him not to forget the pictures.

Hmm... yes, I will be sure to put that on his list of things to do. LOL And now that I have my new digital camera, posting the pictures should be a sinch! (operative word bying "should"

Goodness I hope she's bigger than a peanut! ;) She'll come soon and we'll wait patiently so you can be impatient if you like.

Wishing you a speedy delivery, Rachel. Looking forward to seeing pics of Little Cowgirl.

Aw, thanks ya'll. In all fairness to her, she's still got another two weeks (slightly less) until she's "late". And, while it's not the most comfortable thing in the world, the 9th month has not proven to be the misery everyone told me it would be. I'm just impatient to see her!

You're going to be such a great mom!

Wow, the time is so close--pretty exciting! Don't try any more 'remedies', the result sounds scary. I second what Holliday said. You'll be a great mom.

Thanks, I hope Grace agrees! LOL

Good luck to you and Toby, Rachel! (And Grace.) I'll be thinking of you!

I check here every day now, CGJ, to see if there's any news. I hope you've shown Toby everything he needs to know here.
