Barometric Pressure

I'm taking a poll, except I'm too lazy (more like tired) to figure out how to add a poll to my blog tonight. But, here are the questions.

Do you think the change in barometric pressure caused by the thunderstorms and rain tomorrow will send me into labor?

If not, do you think this child has enough of a sense of humor already to wait until April 15th to make his/her arrival into this world?

As for hints, all of the labor indications are definitely there. Contractions (definitely contractions) since Monday, low dull backache with contractions, emotional mood swings since this weekend, nesting and other hints I won't disgust you with on this blog.

Any guesses on the weight? Hint: As of Monday's doctor's appointment at 39 weeks and 2 days, I had gained approximately 32 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight. When Annabelle was born early at 39 weeks and 2 days, I had gained 40 lbs and she weighed 7 lbs, 9 oz at birth!

I will predict this: Without a doubt, this baby will come just the moment Grandmomma sticks her head under the shower to wash her hair!

As for the amount of weight you've gained, I strongly suggest NOBODY else even touch that subject. I think I shall name you Duck, duck, turtle, turtle. (Waddle, waddle. Snap, snap.) But I love you all 32 extra pounds of you.

Seriously, I think you are just beautiful. Tired looking, but just beautiful. Some women are lucky enough to look pretty when they're pregnant. You're one of them.

Oh, and the morning and afternoon traffic will have an awful lot to do with it's decision to come...any day, today, now! Add to that the thunderstorms that are coming in.

Shall I run stick my head under the water now?

I love you, I really, really do!You know I'm just teasing you. Can't wait for this baby to come so we can spoil it rotten.

Mommybelle,
I predict Beebo will be welcomed to this world in the next 48 hours, and weigh 7 lbs 4 oz. I keep finding myself praying for you and the little booger, that both are happy and healthy. I know you are uncomfortable and anxious, but you have a great support base and everything will be fine!!

I love you!
