Statistics of a sort

For the record: STILL PREGNANT

Morning visit: 11:00a (last one I scheduled in hopes that she would arrive by now but still has not...) Hope to hear I am beyond 1 CM, 50% effaced...

Amount of hope for this: 10%

Concentration level at work: .02% (is that even possible?)

Chances of being late: (can you hear the laughter right now?) At least 14 days and considering Pancake seems just as pleased as punch like her brother to stay in there I figure I have at least that many chances of being late... so much for positive thinking, eh!!?

PLEASE NOTE: I threatened her with no more ICE CREAM until after she arrives. It was painful!

Tubs of ice cream in the freezer: TWO (both half full, must have ice cream num num num...)

Most unexpected "things" about pregnancy part deux:
little to no acne, same amount of weight gain despite "trying" to exercise and eat right (I gave up again BTW when I noticed that whatever I did did not stop the weight gain), how different this pregnancy has been from the 1st one, HAVING AN AUGUST BABY...

Dates:
My midwife is out of town for the day July 24th and the Douala is out of town starting August 5th. Must have baby around those dates...bahahahaha

Contractions: Why yes!
Consistency to contractions: No no...
Painful: Indeed when they occur (see consistency issue above.)

Cups of Raspberry leaf tea I have had:
an ENTIRE FREAKING box
Walks taken: a dozen with two very long hot walks the past two nights
Fruit measures: Two pineapples and a watermelon mostly eaten by me - heard it helps...

Hours of sleep I get per night: 2-4 hours of very very light uncomfortable sleep

Days till I am due: FOUR (or today if we are talking about the original due date)

Do I waddle:
Worse then a one legged duck on hot asphalt (WHAT?)

Is it time to wrap this bad blog post up?: YES it is (bye bye!)

Heh! This made me laugh! You still seem to be in pretty good spirits. I know how miserable those last few days are....but, you definitely only have a few days left now! Hang in there!

Oh...a one legged duck on hot pavement? FUNNY!

You are too funny!

And 2-4 hours of sleep?!? I am practically stark raving mad after only 5 hours each of the last 3 nights; I feel for you!
