Conclusions

Posted on Wednesday, July 13, 2011 |
I would like to let everyone conclusively know that the following list of things will not put you into labor.  They are like dumbo's magic feather, and probably only have power if you believe they do (OR you were already going into labor anyways...)
-Eggplant Parmesan, while delicious, will not make the little one pop out.
-Lemon drop cupcakes, again, VERY tasty, but not a baby's invite to his own birthday party.
-Bouncing on an exercise ball, while fun doesn't make the baby go towards the light.
-Taking the stairs (at least 12 flights) will make your thighs burn, but won't make the baby step into action.   Pun, while lame, WAS intended.
-Walking on the treadmill.  It's good for you, but does it induce labor? NO.  Especially after eating all that Eggplant Parmesan and cupcakes...
-Getting a pedicure.  My toes look good, but did the baby like them enough to join us? Nope.
-Eating spicy food.  My Chipotle looked like soup yesterday and was swimming in hot sauce.  I think you know what didn't happen...

I've got 2 weeks left until the baby's due date, and I am still feeling good.  In fact, I would like to challenge ANY female out there, pregnant or not, to a push-up and/or Subway sandwich eating contest.  I am convinced I can take anyone down!  I am officially not sick of being pregnant BUT I am sick of the daily diagnosis of strangers without medical degrees/certifications.  Suddenly everyone that has ever known someone who was pregnant is now an expert.  I know you are excited, but for now, enough questions--just lie to me and tell me I look great.

I know we have the baby pool going BUT should we start a second batch of guesses for baby height and weight?  There might be a prize involved.  The prize will be from a tired new mom, so it may or may not be a special picture of the baby holding a sign with your name on it while wearing a fake mustache.  But then again, doesn't that sound like a fantastic prize?!
I am going to start off the guesses with 20 inches long, and 7 pounds 3 ounces....
Leave your guesses in the comments section below:
