I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Our wings are not tired.
Yay Aunty Vortex! I regret not insisting on having a home birth. Way to go SIL. Good on them for keeping the location secret.

The only person that they were keeping it secret from was my mother. Everyone else would respect their choice.

Okay, can Monday be over already, please? Just went to unpack the stuff I bought at Walgreen's and discovered that a shampoo bottle came open in one of the bags. I now have a bottle of shampoo-flavored Tums.

Hurrah for Aunt-hood!
keeping the location secret.
I read this as "keeping the lactation secret" but my life does tend to revolve around nursing these days, and I am seriously short on sleep today because the dog puked on our bed last night . . . twice. The first time we changed the sheets. The second time we changed beds and finished the night in the spare bedroom.
I cannot believe I have to go back to work next week!

Poor Sass! And even poorer you for having to deal with pooch-puke. Yeck. Given her diminutive size, I hope it wasn't too big a job of clean up.
How are Babyfras and the pup getting on?
In re: home births. The birth I attended as an assistant was so perfectly...perfect, I am always amazed when people think the practice is crazy. The family moved west and had their second child at home as well with no issues whatsoever.
The first birth was considered 'at risk' because it was an ivf conception and the second was considered risky because of the mother's age (39) but both were as easy as such a thing can be.

I deeply admire the people who do it-- in theory, it's something I might have liked from the standpoint of being in my own space and having as much control as possible. (I feel the same about driving vs. flying. I do the former whenever I can swing it.)
However, I am a Big Wuss and was quite happy to have the drugs. Especially the sweet, sweet Demerol.

SIL is late thirties, but her first birth went well, she's in good health. It's pretty low risk, as I understand it.

oh, yes. The doctor is going to say "congratulations, you're pregnant" and I will say "thank you. Now, let's talk about the drugs"
It just occurred to me that it would be good to bring some food tonight when we meet the baby, so I'm going to sneak out and buy stuff to make lasagne.
