Have I mentioned how much I love being compared to livestock? It is especially great when the comparisons deal with labor, delivery, and nursing. So I had contractions, a lot of them for a long time last night. Brian got all excited and wanted to rush me to the hospital. In an effort to get me into the car, he said, "You are not a heifer anymore Karen, you are a cow now." (Here is the definition if you need it Heifer: cow giving birth for the first time, Cow: already given birth at least once.) So anyway the contractions stopped and despite what he thought Brian did not have to worry about delivering our child in the car on the way to the hospital. And for the record if the lactation specialist (you know the one that grew up around lactating mammals his whole life) turns up this time while I am nursing it will not be pretty!
Disclaimer: Brian would like you all to know that cows deliver much quicker and faster than heifers do hence the comparison.(That makes it all sound bettter right?)

We're excited for you guys. Good luck in the next little while!
Nice! Good luck, I hope everything goes well.
Karen, never question the lactation specialist/dentist/fishing pro/omniscient god/etc.
I can't stop laughing!!! I feel like I was right there listening as I read it- I needed a good laugh. Thanks
I feel for ya, cute girl. You knew you were getting yourself a cowboy, when you said I do! I didn't hear word yet, any news?
Nice, I remember how much you enjoyed his nursing help the first time.
