Default Baby overdue- UPDATE-He's here! (pic added 1-3-10)

Sitting here ready to deliver a nice, healthy 10 lb. Christmas ham. Baby is about a week overdue now, and I'm ready for it to be over. This is our last kid, and, as with the other two, we are planning on having a homebirth. We have not had any ultrasounds or other testing, so we know very little about this little one. We are quite anxious to meet him or her!

Would sure appreciate a prayer or two that labor would start soon, and that all would go smoothly. Thanks.

~Melissa

You know, Melissa, that you need to have that baby before 1/01/10 to get the child tax credit for 09! Just kidding. Praying for your and your baby's health and a fast, easy delivery. Let us know how it goes.

Ugh. Don't remind me. We've gotten hit the last few years from having to pay capital gains, so my husband keeps telling me that we NEED this tax deduction. My oldest son was born on Dec. 30th, so hopefully we can get this one in under the wire, too. Not to mention, I'm slightly miserable at this point.

Thanks to all for the prayers.

Looks like an hour or so left. j/k

I do hope you are comfortable as possible. (even though there may not be such a thing)

Prayers to you and your baby.

Don't think we're going to make the deadline, but as long as baby's healthy, that's what matters.

I'm pretty comfortable now, but we'll see in a few hours. Thanks for the prayers.
