Okay it’s official now, this baby is totally late and totally getting on my nerves (literally). I started this month out thinking “Yes, July, my kid is going to be born in July! It’s finally here!” Now I’m starting to think “What the fuck am I going to do if this kid shows up in August, seriously August?” I always assumed that this baby would show his face at least one week before my due date, with good reason.
