I Am the Anti-Contraction

Talking with my grandma today she gave me a visual image I couldn't help but share. She said when she was pregnant with my mother that my mom put one foot on each side of her pelvis, folded her arms, and refused to come out. I think my kid is following suit. Maybe its because of book club, but I picture this straddling the birth canal:
(Sorry if thats too graphic) He is already thinking, "Oh, the cleverness of me!" Or not ...
So, yes, I am overdue ... no baby yet. Don't worry, I will let all of cyberspace know when he arrives. We can't wait.

Hang in there. My mom's advice was "they are a lot easier in there then when they come out"!! SLEEP, while you still can! And don't worry, he has to come out some time.
