Poll Results

Some of you have sent your guesses, so here they are. There is still time to get in this wonderfully fun and competitive game :) Just email me or comment with your guess of Ben's arrival.

March 9 - The earliest I want him to arrive
March 11 PM Priscilla, my college roommate
March 13 AM Cara, DTS friend
March 14 AM Grammy (Ryan's mom)
March 15 PM Ryan's Guess
March 15 AM Candice, my middle sister
March 16 AM Great Grandma Sherrill
March 19 - Official Due Date
March 19 AM Kim, grew up pretty much as sisters, but no blood relation
March 24 PM Lisa, Dallas care group friend

We officially graduated from our childbirth prep class this afternoon. We have some tools and techniques to practice and hopefully we will be able to make it without serious drugs (at least that is my plan). Since Ryan doesn't want to be a part of any of the 'gross' stuff for fear of passing out, he should make a wonderful coach - all his attention will be on my eyes and probably on his own breathing patterns. I can just follow him. We got to tour the birthing center where I will deliver. The room is very spacious and has a fold out couch for Ryan to sleep over, a separate little room with its own door with a phone and TV and chairs. Each room has a jacuzzi tub and shower combo. They offer mats and birthing balls and all those wonderful extras should I want them. And, they have a little common kitchen where Ryan can keep food in a frig, use the microwave, get coffee, etc. It looked like a pretty good setup. Now, we just wait.

We will go to the doctor again Monday afternoon and report back if there is any more progress made.

I will toss in my guess for March 12 in the PM, so that we can be birthday buddies. ;-)
