Still waiting....

So much for being on bed rest for two months to prevent our wee one from coming early. I am still impatiently waiting. May I add, huge, swollen, sleepless, painfully waddling and impatiently waiting. I'm 37 weeks, some odd pounds heavier (I will never tell- let me just say the kid loves his cow). He's been measuring 2 weeks ahead- 7.5 lbs this week and head and belly in the 90th percentile, God save me! I'm praying the doctor will whisk me to the hospital at tomorrows apt. to have my Christmas baby. Otherwise, I may cry, secretly hoping that will help the whisking.
We can't wait to meet our little boy! We've even resorted to bribery. A cut of the tax break for 2009, he can cone out and eat the same solid foods he's been consuming in utero- burgers, break and bake chocolate chip cookies. I've tried all the spicy or inducing food possible- egg plant parmesan, red curry, chilli, jalepenos and just straight up hot sauce on everything. He just taunts me with a dance.
Then theirs begging and pleading, swim to the light, are you trying to torture me?
