Since so many bloggers have been enquiring about the chicken and egg ticker at the top of the page, here's the scoop.My first Grandbaby is being a little stubborn and staying where he/she is right now, even though the due date was last Monday.
The doc says that all is well with both mother and baby, and it's just a waiting game. But if Baby doesn't make an appearance over the weekend, Monday will be The Day!
Update Monday 18 Feb, 9:45am. No sign of Baby yet, but the doc says we've all waited long enough and so Mummy and Daddy are at the hospital ready for the process to start. Stay tuned!
Update Monday 18 Feb 9:01pm. Baby is definitely on the way, but is a little reluctant to meet his/her new family. Probably feeling shy. Mummy is breathing a big thankyou to medical science for the blessings of an epidural, and Daddy has been providing awesome encouragement. More news in the morning.
congratulations! hopefully the wait will not be much longer.
ReplyDeleteWell, babies always come when least expected. Congratulations on the boy. If I was a girl I would have said, "Girl."
ReplyDeleteWaiting is sooooooo hard......
ReplyDeleteHow did i miss you becoming a grandma, I sure hope it don't take much longer and she will come out soon. Well i think it has to be a she you know us ladies like to keep the men waiting.

Well, my girls arrived two weeks early, but my son arrived two weeks late. At least you know that you won't have to wait much past Monday. You must be so excited.
ReplyDeleteThe waiting is so hard sometimes. How exciting and I anxiously wait for the news.
ReplyDeleteThrilling times for you; sleepless for them!
ReplyDeleteMy friend at work is waiting like you - but her grandbaby was due a week last Friday and 'he' still hasn't made an appearance. Still it's the best place for both of them!
ReplyDeleteHaven't visited for a week or so and expected big banners when I arrived. Hope he/she is arriving as I write!

ReplyDeleteOooh.. I can almost smell that new baby scent. It won't be long now. Sigh!
ReplyDeleteI guess your next post will proclaim new news?????
ReplyDeleteI had been wondering, too....So I am very glad you gave us an update....I hope that all goes well, and that if THE date is Monday, that Everything will go very smoothly! Prayers for all.
ReplyDeleteoh the suspense! late sunday night, will check back tomorrow for updates. I'm sure you're all waiting on the edge of your seats.
ReplyDeleteBabies always have their own schedule. My first baby came early. The second came 3 days late (not that bad) and the last baby was 10 days late! I hated being past my date. It was like walking around with a time bomb. I nervous about going anywhere, even to the store.
ReplyDeleteCome to think about it, that 3rd child has kept the trend going. He's always late for everything!
So, if nothing happened during the weekend, today is the day!
ReplyDeleteThey certainly take their time!
ReplyDeleteTwo of mine came on the expected day, one was two days early and one five days late, says she smugly!
I don't think a baby has been so eagerly awaited worldwide since the Queen last gave birth!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell I guess its all over now.
ReplyDeleteCongrats.

ReplyDeleteYour first grandbaby will be here any time now.
It's Monday late afternoon, here in Arkansas, as I write this.

ReplyDeleteI know that by this time, the baby will have arrived. I hope mum and baby are well and resting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the regular updating! Will check again in a few hours!
ReplyDeleteIn case it helps, I started pacing too.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you suggest she has a game of tennis? That usually does the trick!
