We got kind of excited last night—things were so much “on the move” that I was starting to feel a little uncomfortable, and wondering if we might end up with a St. Patrick’s Day baby after all.
But I guess Baby decided to hit the snooze alarm one more time, since today has been relatively quiet. [...]

I was SO ready for Baby to come last weekend. I dusted. I vacuumed. I laundered. I cooked. I rested. We went out. But now, with the “due” date come and gone with no Baby popping out (since only SHE knows when the right day will be), I started to get nervous. Part of it [...]

Typically, Sarah is at school ’til ’bout 5. Sometimes she comes home early for lunch. Sometimes she gets home even earlier.
Yesterday, around 10 AM, I was working at my desk when out of the corner of my eye I saw this.

“What the hell is that?!” I thought.
Then I saw this:

“Oh, right! I forgot,” [...]

Someone asked me yesterday when I am due (since my belly is too huge to be ignored), and I replied “Oh I dunno, now?” Yes fans, any time now! All of a sudden I am paying way more attention to all those little practice contractions I’ve been having for the last 6 weeks or so. [...]

I think you can all guess what “must-have” item Rahul added to the list.

I think it would be nice to have some music for in the hospital. So far, my playlist includes “Eye of the Tiger” and some mellow harp music.
Any suggestions?
Also, from you experienced parents–any suggestions on what to pack for the hospital? I am going to try and avoid wearing one of those dumb gowns [...]

…apparently the father of my baby (as pictured above) was separated at birth from:

Whoa. Now I REALLY can’t wait to see what baby looks like.

Last week, Baby seemed to have hiccups every day. They feel just like when you have hiccups, but down low and real small. It’s slightly annoying and very cute.
So anyway, Rahul was out of town and Baby was hiccuping. And since it was just the two of us (me and my belly), I decided [...]

Um….did anyone else notice Baby is coming along in the next few weeks?
Whoa. I know it shouldn’t really be a surprise. I mean, baby has been cooking in there for a while. It just seems so real and close all of a sudden, probably because:
1) it IS (duh)
2) my belly appears ENORMOUS (to me, at [...]
