Tomorrow

Tomorrow I shall become a grandmother again.  I told Alan (on Sunday) that Cyndi, our youngest, will have her baby on Wednesday, November 9.

Today she called me and told me that she was having her baby tomorrow, if not sooner.  Since it's now 9 p.m. on November 8th, I have no doubt that we could still have a baby today since Cyndi is one of those fortunate women who has babies very easily and very quickly.  However, I still think it will be tomorrow, Wednesday, Nov. 9.

I find it so amazing that these days letting a woman go at least two weeks past her due date is not common practice.  When I had my children -- all of which were late, by the way -- it wasn't even considered no matter how much one begged their ob-gyn doctor to "please, get this lump out of me."  Yes, I was one of those beggars. 

My first was a week late, my second was a week late, and Cyndi was almost a month late, or the Army doctors were way off on her due date when I tested pregnant.

Cyndi, my youngest is having another baby!  Yippee.  I can't wait.  It's a girl, by the way, and her name is Savannah.

I'm praying for another easy birthing for her and that she goes into labor before she's induced.
