Narrow miss

Well, thankfully I'm still on my couch. My blood pressure was so high initially at the doctor's office that it looked like I was going to spend some time in the hospital, but it went down again. They are keeping a close eye on me, and it looks like we'll be having this baby sometime in the next 2-3 weeks. Wow. We're feeling more ready for it though. Let's get this show on the road!

Me: "Serves me right. I'd been getting cocky saying I was having a 'textbook' pregnancy."

Dr. McD.: "Well, you are having a textbook pregnancy. This is just a different chapter!"
