Don't make me laugh!

Please notice to the right of this post is a cute little baby counter that says "your baby is 2 days old".
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!

What a joke! I love due dates. They are truly so arbitrary. I mean, come on! Who can truly predict this stuff? Little Elijah Aaron Griesmyer is not 2 days old. He is 2 days late in gracing us with his presence and coming into the world. 'Sigh' Plus I'm beginning to think homeopathy is a total myth. With my last 2 pregnancies I have taken this delightful herb from Nature's Sunshine called 5W. It works great to "prime the pump" if you will. But you have to start taking it 5 weeks before your due date for it to work. Since I was kinda moving across the country and unpakcing and wrestling with my other 3 boys, I decided not to start taking this herb on time. Instead I had heard that homeopathy works much faster so to the herb shop I went. UGGGHHHHH! I have been taking the recommended remedy to induce labor for the last 5 days! I'm about to do what I did with Ammon and take some castrol oil (SO GROSS!!!) But I have big babies and am starting to get desperate. I gotta say though, being pregnant is a LOT easier than going through labor. So maybe I'm not so desperate afterall.
Take your time little one, take your time! :)

I'll take the labor over the pregnancy any day. 6 hours or 9 months.....hmmmm.

Castor oil is not so bad if you take it and then drink soda immediately after! That was the only thing that put me into labor eleven days late with Cardon.. Oh, and I took it every other day for 6 days! I agree with sarah Labor any day!
