Countdown Widget

I know that due dates are approximate. Babies arrive when they are ready, not when the mother or doctor want the delivery to happen (theoretically). That said, I am resenting that Baby Countdown widget on my sidebar. I was pretty excited to put it on my blog months ago. But today, it makes me upset and weepy.

It finally says "0 days to go" today. I am not having contractions. I have no pre-labor symptoms. I am done gestating! I know he will arrive sometime in the next week, but I would really like his arrival to be today (or yesterday).

Oh, Erin, I have been thinking about you a lot lately! Praying that he shows up soon without complications! Hang in there.

I was just wondering whether the widget would go into negative numbers. :) Hope the days until delivery go QUICKLY.

Time for the widget to die!

Maybe if I virtually chant:
Ba-BY! Ba-BY! Ba-BY!

Ok, maybe not. Praying for a VERY eventful night for you tonight...

This is totally off-topic, but I met your sil today! (She is really cool.)

Enjoy these last few days of feeling that little one inside you. Looking forward to the big announcement post!
