I know I know

I know you’re all checking in on me, I can see it in my stats. You’re there, right between the google searches for ‘ben wa balls’ and ‘toddler sucking breasts’.

FYI my toddler doesn’t breastfeed anymore. She just snuggles them when she’s tired. Or grumpy. Or hot. Actually, I think my boobs are the go-to thing for Amy when she is being needy. I should really have pushed for a soft toy attachment, no?

Unfortunately, my silence has not been because I was off having a baby. Instead, I was playing midwife to the cat (who managed to get herself UNpregnant to the tune of 5 kittens) and nurse to one of the kittens that she ‘lost’ for 24 hours. I’m hoping it survives, but hey, if it doesn’t I have another FOUR to find homes for anyway.

So that’s it really. Since I started this post, I have gone and had a shower, during which the baby dropped about as low as he can go without simply falling out of there. I’m uncomfortable, but not contracting, so knowing my luck it will still be another 3-4 days before he arrives.

Sigh.

Joyce-Anne January 18, 2009 at 2:18 pm: I’m sorry you are still waiting. He will come, unfortunately, it’s in his time. Little baby boy, your mommy is waiting. Please come sooner as opposed to later. I’m still keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for you.

Leah January 18, 2009 at 3:26 pm: Awwww Come out already little Dude!
hey, What Color are the kittens? I may be interested in getting one for Brandon provided we get this house im going after 🙂
Leslie January 18, 2009 at 4:18 pm: Your kitten dilemma is sounding oh, so familiar. At least that’s something to distract you from all the waiting for the baby.

I’m beginning to think like Jayne, your little chap wants to be an Australia day baby, he’s holding out for the Big Breakfast!
tiff January 18, 2009 at 5:02 pm: Hanging in there, right along with you.
Surely the hormones flying around from the unpregnant cat are catching…surely.
Midwifery is fun, right?
Right?
Right.

river January 19, 2009 at 3:22 pm: “…during which the baby dropped as low as he can go…” See, this is what I meant when I said it looked like the baby hadn’t “dropped” yet. I knew that belly was still too high.
