8 years ago right at this very moment, I was very hugely pg, and swimming like a Shamu in the pool and soaking up the sun.

8 years ago 6 hours from now, dh will have just arrived home and fallen into bed beside me. I had waited up for him, but I still couldn't sleep.

8 years ago 8 hours from now, I get these pangs and start counting them. Holy smoke, they're coming closer and closer. Wake dh, call the doc, dh goes to take a shower, and doc says to go to the hosp.

8 years ago, 10 hours from now, I finally break down and let dh take me to the hosp. Even tho it's 2 am, and there is nobody on the streets, and we live a whopping 5 min. from the hosp., dh feels the need for speed...I lmao off at him and accuse him of secretly hoping my water doesn't break on his truck seat....

8 years ago, 15 hours from now, the doc breaks aforementioned water in an effort to speed things along.

8 years ago, 20 hours from now, I ask for drugs...massive amounts of drugs. Forget natural childbirth, btdt, and having just realizing how big dh's head is and thinking that more than likely his genes were probably dominant, I decide that drugs are a good thing. I was right.

8 years ago 27 hours from now, Rebekah Elizabeth makes a very squalling appearance in the world. She is perfect and beautiful. She is light and joy.

I'll love her forever.

I hope you are saving this somewhere for you dd to read when she is all grown up or maybe for 5 years from now when she's hating you! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
