Redneck's Wife

  No stork yet, Feeble!
Gosh! I've been so negligent lately. I realize that an extended period of no posting at this point in my pregnancy makes people wonder: Hmmm, she hasn't posted in a while, has she had the baby? Feeble Knees even posted as much!
Not yet! Thanks for praying though, I really appreciate it.

This is interesting, though. A couple weeks ago I left a message for a friend to "please call me back right away". I didn't really think about it, but she called, worried. "Are you okay? Are you in labor?" Oops. No. I just wanted to ask you about having lunch.

Also, one of my haircut clients left me a message and asked if I could squeeze in one more haircut before the baby. I, in turn, left her a message with times, days, etc. She called me back, leaving another message. Then, I forgot about it. Two days later, I remembered in the middle of the night that I hadn't called her back. When I called the next day, she said "Oh, I was sure you had the baby! I wasn't going to call you for another week!"

I called Cindy yesterday, and was greeted with "Are you in labor?" Then there are the daily calls from mom-in-law. God help me if I go past my due date! Will there be hourly calls? Will I still be able to be nice?

So, I have to be careful what I say. It's a really weird feeling knowing I could go into labor at any time. In the grocery store this weekend, the expiration date on the milk was after my due date.

Ok, baby. Whenever you're ready!
 
Comments:
So just post three times a day, saying,
"Not yet. 7am."
"Not yet. 3pm."
"Not yet. 10pm."
Maybe that will stave off some of the queries... ;-)
 
I was getting those calls too! I was about ready to take my phone off the hook. :)

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do virtually the same thing (as those calling to ask if you're in labor) by posting about it! But you are in my thoughts and prayers...

Baby will get here when s/he is good and ready. Bug would have taken his own sweet time if it wasn't for the fact that he was kind of evicted. :)

Hang in there!
Feeble
 
FK, it's alright. I wasn't offended or annoyed by your post. LOL.
I was touched, in fact.
 
Ah yes, as someone who has gone past her due date on each of three pregnancies - it does get worse once you hit that milestone. Brace yourself, just in case! ;-)

I married the rarest of creatures, a genuine redneck who was born and raised in the liberal San Francisco Bay Area. I'm a technophile married to a technophobe.

Need guitar stuff?
My favorite redneck can hook you up!
