1 week
1 week left till Baby Girl's due date. 7 days. 6 until my last day of work ;-)
Babycenter.com update: "Baby Girl is ready to great the world! She continues to build a layer of fat to help control her body temperature after birth but it's likely she already measures about 20 inches and weighs a bit over 7 pounds. (Boys tend to be slightly heavier than girls). Her organs are fully developed and in place and the outer layers of skin are sloughing off as new skin forms underneath."
"... only about 5% of babies are born on their scheduled due date. And Baby Girl can't make you wait indefinitely for her arrival... If you don't go into labour on your own, most practitioners will induce labour when you're between one and two weeks overdue".
Hmm... also according to BabyCenter.com we can apparently get a congrats from the White House by sending Baby Girl's name, address and birth date to the White House Greetings Office (address provided). Um... no. No thanks. That's one souviner we don't need ;-)
