Still, no baby
I have no baby yet, but I now have tons of advice about how to trigger labor; pressure points, walking, spicy foods, baths, sex, nipple stimulation (three hours a day?!), ME getting drunk, jumping jacks, driving over bumpy roads and several more.
I’m sure one of these would appear to work at some point because, well, he can’t stay in there forever. His arrival is bound to coincide with one of these activities sooner or later if you do them enough. Hell, if I rubbed my own nipples for 3 hours a day I’m sure it would match up with some significant event, like his birth or me getting fired from my job.
Long story short, no baby yet. But at least I’m not alone in this impatient father experience.

Thanks for the mention. I triewd to get her to eat Egg Plant last night…there are some resturants in Atl. that swear by it’s inducing power. They advertise it. But she refused…coward.

I heard a new one today — ginseng. Which sorta makes sense, because you’re forboden to use it in your first trimester.
You know, like crack.

Two women my Honey knows, who had the same due date as her, gave birth two days ago. My Honey is angry.

Like I said, you and your wife aren’t in the driver’s seat any more.
But, if the baby’s head is engaged in the pelvis and it comes down to a chemical induction when the baby is 9 days overdue, ask me about how to do it with caster oil. It’s less likely to result in an emergency c-section.
