4 days and still no baby!

It's been 4 days since I went to my Doc's and he told me labor had begun but as of this moment still no baby.  Well at least not in my arms instead of my belly.  I'm still contracting although those are random and unconsistent.  There are other things going on which like I said before are abit too graphic and personal to divulge here .  In my anxiety I've gone as far as to try Mexican old wives remedies for a lazy labor!   I've drank more Te de Manzanilla than I've ever had in my life (not to mention all the extra trips to the bathroom besides the usual 100 trips I take from being pregnant!).  I've eaten more Comino than there is in an Indian food buffet!  I've walked more miles in the past week than my swollen feet cared to walk.  Yet, I'm still here with my bulging belly trying with all of my heart to be patient.  What realy gives me the warm and fuzzies is seeing my whole family so eager to see this baby born too.   I think they are actualy more anxious than I am!!  From my dad in Spain who has called me everyday, to my family in Mexico who is praying for me, to my in-laws who drove from Laughlin in a rush Tuesday night, to my family here in California, I guess I could say this baby has the whole World in pins and needles!  Wow, so much love for my baby who noone has even met yet makes me feel blessed  beyond what I could even ask for!!

So this will be a long weekend as all eyes are on me and baby as we all wait for his birth.  Oh great, now I'm getting performance anxiety!

The Lord is good!

I can totally relate. With my 5th baby I drank more caster oil than I care to confess. Ewww!! But, once your little one makes his/her big entrance into the world.... All this waiting time won't seem so bad.

HAPPY LABOR DAY -- when it progresses. :o)

Blessings, Beckie
