After a day of early labor, things have speeded up considerably - contractions now 6 minutes apart. They'll probably be heading for the hospital within an hour or two. Or more. Or less. You know, depending on how things go.

She's a few days ahead of her Official Due Date (Nov 14). Which isn't a problem medically, but sadly we bet the wrong way and made our reservations to fly out there for Nov 12. *gnashing of teeth*  I really wanted to be there for her, but it's hard to make travel plans around an event that can easily be plus or minus two weeks. I'm sure they'll all be just fine, but I wish I were there...

On the other hand, it appears that the nurses in her hospital are planning to go on strike on Tuesday (!!!) so Monday is probably the right time to get this over with.

It's going to be a long night.

Eeeep! Best wishes all around.

At least when you go there'll be a baby to play with.

OMG! How exciting! How frustrating not to be there! I hope you can keep yourself distracted with work etc.

I very much look forward to learning whether you have a grandson or granddaughter. What does that make me? a Godgrandmother?
