The baby

Well, unless you’re living under a rock, you probably know that the royal baby is on the way–the Duchess is in active labor.  It brought back memories of my first baby.  He took 24 hours to come out into the world.  My mother told me that I, too, took 24 hours of labor.  Both my son and I have the German cheekbones…I can only surmise they were the hold up. :p

I don’t, however, think this baby is any more special than any other and the worldwide attention is so over the top.  Good Grief.  Poor Kate for having to deal with the pains of labor with the whole world watching!

It’s bad enough when you’re in labor in a hospital and the staff puts their hands up your crotch every hour, forces you to take an enema, and then when you’re in so much pain you think your head is going to explode, they tell you to “blow it out”…

I had one honest nurse tell me she’d like to tell the male doctor to blow something else out. Haha.

Anyway, good wishes to Kate and William, and the baby.  And to all the new Moms and Dads welcoming their babies in the world.  May you all be safe and warm and dry.  What a perfect world that would be…
