For those keeping track, the ninja is late.  :(  The docs have all said he's in fine shape-- good heartbeat, moves around, lots of fluid, head down in the "exit" position.  We're actually a little dilated already and having random contractions-- but he's taking his time about actually leaving.  In the meantime, I've cleaned everything in the house

And that is terrifying. Although I have absolutely no doubts that you'll be a great mom.

Babies don't want to leave. Every single woman I have known who is with baby is over due.

Hopefully the little ninja will decide to magic smoke it before sunday. Goodluck and you will do wonderful.

Man I hpoe I break that pattern. I think I'd blow a gasket if I were more than like... a day late.

Maybe he's waiting for better weather!

I'd heard about low air pressure inducing labor...

I had only one that was NOT induced. In most cases there were complications(I had 3 induced- one due to IGUR, one I was not having contractions and water broke and last due to being 2 weeks overdue)
You CAN have an epidural(although I will admit I never reccomend them- most times people have back issues after the epidurals)
Good luck and -babies don't come with instructions- so if you wanna ask some veteran moms- you can throw me on the list if you want- I have had 4 kids- and ALL 4 were different. No horror stories- I promise.
