No, she has been trying to embarass me on my birthday for years now and nothing ever works. I am pretty sure she has something up her sleeve for this year.

Big party at friends is envolved.

I've left some rings in bathtubs in my life, but not a whole damn river. Way to go, Crash Bang. I assume that was after you finished your hike.

30, wow, you're coming down the homestretch now. The big 4-0 will be here before you know it. My son was born late Feb. Sounds like your due date is about then.

Sorry to trash your thread CB.

Are you doing natural, or just using it as a relaxation technique?

The thing the freaked me out most about childbirth was that I was expecting it to be like on TV. You're up at her head with a wet washcloth, dabbing it on her head and saying encouraging things like, "You can do it honey." The reality is that they tell you to grab a leg and you scream like a drill sergeant, "PUSH, PUSH, PUSH!!!!!"

She wants drugs. It doesn't matter to me. I just want her as comfortable as possible.

I know that is saying a lot when you are trying to push something the size of a watermelon out the size of a lemon.
