    Being sweaty and uncomfortable doesn't help. I would have gone and hung out at my parents' house today, (temperature being 66 over there in the house, and approaching 90 when the sun blazes in at MY house) but that would have added an extra 15 minutes of travel time to the hospital, and my labors are relatively short, since I'm "old hat" at it.


    You poor thing. Summer is not a fun time to be pregnant. I remember with my August baby basically sitting in front of a fan all day toward the end. Have you considered hanging out at a library or mall near the hospital during the hottest part of the day?

    As an aside, your parents keep their house at 66!?! Burr!!

    My dad has breathing problems, which cause him to have to have the house cold all year long. I see my mother wearing a sweater even in the summer more often than not.

    I'd thought about going to the library to hang out over there, but I'd have to bring all the children with me, and they'd make a mess of the place.  :laugh1:

    Hopefully something'll happen tonight, or tomorrow, AFTER MASS of course, but you know how predictable these things are: Not at all.

  • In the Rituale Romanum (Tit. VIII, cap. v.) there is a blessing for expectant mothers. Attached is the text and translation from Rev. Fr. Philip T. Weller's book The Roman Ritual, In Latin and English with Rubrics and Plainchant Notation, Volume III - Blessings (Milwaukee, WI: The Bruce Publishing Company, 1952).

    Be assured once again of my prayers for you at Mass tomorrow  :pray:

    I had this blessing when I was about 5 months pregnant. :) Thanks Hobble!

  • So... I just got some reflexology done, and from what I've heard, this baby should be on the way within 24 hours.

    The only thing I'm worried about is a "short cord" which might be why she hasn't moved down yet (I really pray not, but it could be.)

    I wanna see the look on the doctor's face when I go into labor in the next several hours, because when I told him I was going to get some reflexology done, he looked at me with a, :stare: , "Yeah, right," face.

    Either way, she'll be out in the next couple of days, if not tonight or tomorrow morning. :)

  • So I'm sitting here... it's almost 4am, and I'm pretty sure something is starting to happen now! Keep me in your prayers, please, and hopefully by the late morning/early afternoon, I will have some tidings for you.

    I'll have my mom post here with updates when she can.
