But since my post on Friday, Mr. Cob has flown to Chicago, attended his 10 year high school reunion and flown back. (And apparently packed his hospital bag as I've just been informed. He always has to be one step ahead of me, making me look all bad for not having mine packed. Showoff.)
And I have done everything on my to-do list (thanks to the most amazing mother alive) except for the following:
- Pack my hospital bag.
- Buy the birthing ball.
- Cook meals (overrated...)
- Shave legs (it's not an easy task these days...)
- Give key to friends.
- Buy mattress protector (I decided I'll take the risk...)
- Get pedicure (not really a real to do...)
And now all we have to do is wait for the little guy. Although we might start testing out some of the "old wives tales" of labor induction in the next couple of days. The main contenders are spicy food, eggplant parm from Scalinis, walking and pineapple smoothies. Anyone have any other suggestions????
Walking! And I highly recommend making the pedicure a "must-do". You might be surprised by how much you (and every nurse, doctor and tech at the hospital) stare at your toes during L&D. : )
