So, we made it through the (lovely 3-day) weekend according to schedule, with baby still tucked safely in her warm womb-space...as I write this, it's exactly one week until The Baby Bumble's arrival. I'm still getting around pretty well, and haven't seen the need to postpone my singing gigs next weekend or Sunday's baby-party. Until then it's just nose to the grindstone, organizing and cleaning the apartment (although, truth be told, Bear does most of the work, and doesn't so much as sniffle when I take a nap while he works), finishing up some overdue thank-you notes, and waiting patiently for whatever may come.
According to this article/study, "babies born in winter are bigger, brighter and more successful". Being a winter baby myself, I of course have suspected as much all along. (Just don't tell my August-born husband...) Of course, the study also indicates that winter babies are more pessimistic. I could have told you that, too.
