Aieeee! Amber is in labor!

We're still a couple of weeks short of a yippeee: not quite 34 weeks gestation (6 weeks short of an absolutely full term pregnancy). But apparently 6 weeks premature isn't what it used to be. I just looked it up, and these days 34 weeks is considered "late pre-term" which is way better than micro-preemie. In other words, they probably won't come straight home from the hospital, but will probably be just fine. But my baby is in a hospital in Portland, Oregon, and I'm here waiting for word about her and HER babies.

And our plane reservations aren't for another two weeks...

Oh, best of luck to her, and to you, being Mother-y in the Midwest! I'd be the same.

Eeek! Best of luck and good wishes and all that.

Eek! Congratulations! Luck to all involved, and the bystanders, too.
