Since you asked…

Posted by jonesey on Thursday, 14 August 2008, 22:22

No baby yet. The due date was Tuesday, two days ago. Sylvan was born six days after his official due date, well within the normal range.

We had six hours of “practice labor” on Saturday morning. Practice labor looks exactly like the real thing and throws a pint of adrenaline into my bloodstream, but it goes away. All signs point to “baby coming real soon now,” but we don’t know if that means hours or days.

We’re waiting patiently. Julie’s mom and sister are in town. Maria, Jenn, and I all jump for the sky every time the phone rings and Julie is somewhere else. So far, we haven’t gotten The Call. Soon, though.

More news as it happens.

And yes, this is some sort of attempt at a reverse jinx.
