Never ever did I think I would be blogging on a Sunday night one week after this baby was due to arrive. Yet, here I am.
Ever see the movie Groundhog Day? This last couple of weeks has been the pregnancy version of that movie. Every night I have some mild contractions that may or may not follow some sort of pattern. Each night I go to bed thinking that maybe... just maybe I will wake up to a real contraction and we will get to play out the scene from every movie or TV show where the wife says, "It's time!" I drift off to sleepyland and then I wake up to pee. No sign of labor. I wake up to pee again. Still nothing. I wake up in the morning and think to myself, "Well, maybe later today."
After a couple weeks worth of disappointments I have resigned myself to the simple fact that this baby is never coming out. My mother shared with me that an elephant's pregnancy is 2 years long! How is this relevant you might wonder? Well, I am starting to suspect that the boy parts that the sonographer saw on the ultrasound must have been a trunk instead. Looking forward to welcoming this sweet elephant baby in December 2014!!

I love comments but if you are seeing this, I'm afraid that no one will see your comment. On the blog, I use Disqus commenting and it sometimes takes longer to load. Also, if you ask me a specific question, I am able to respond to those using Disqus. If you ask here, I am unable to reply. But, again, I love to hear from readers so however you comment, I thank you!!
