Waiting game
The waiting game.
One of these days the lil guy will pop his head into the world and I’ll be a first time father. Debbie will be a first time mom.
Can happen anytime anyday they say. Didn’t happen July 2 like one doctor told us. That was when he was supposed to arrive and all the way up until two weeks ago, that was the assumption. Then July 7 became the day but an ultrasound showed she was further along than that. Who knows.
This due date isnt an exact science. Many children dont arrive on their due dates. In fact, about 95 percent arent born on their due date. 95 percent. So who knows. Due dates is a loose term obviously.
So we wait. 40 weeks and counting. They say a lot of first time moms go into labor 41-42 weeks…but who knows. Just a waiting game now.
And it’s 10 months pregnant not 9.
Hell, full term isn’t until 37 weeks on.
I Always thought 9 months, 36 weeks, etc etc etc and I’m not the only one who thought this in the world.
But we wait…and wait…
One of these days.
