    We should have put this thread on Huff Post or something with a lot of traffic.    If you don't have it tomorrow, you have to wait until the next guess.

    That's @heightsmom
    She guessed October 1st.

    A little less than 5 days to go.

    To get that baby out, start walking. Then, walk some more.

    Before baby came, I had roscoe's soppresata pizza, then Bombay masala, and the brunch at chavelas. :)

    I did a lot of walking today. Still no baby.

    1st babies are usually late. perhaps a subconcious fear of labor on the mom's part, despite the eagerness to get the pregnancy over with.  (used to work for a midwife)

    At the suggestion of her ob-gyn, my wife took a tablespoon of castor oil.

    She gave birth several hours later.

    Baby will come out eventually....it's not like they stay there forever (it just feels like it in the end)

    I'll make a new prediction. Tuesday.

    What is the prize?

    At the next gathering, people will tell the winner "congradulations" if the winner reminds us.

    However, if @xlizellx shows up, all eyes will be on mini xlizellx.

    ...and you will be dissed.

    I am getting reports that mini xlizellx has entered the world.

    Photos will be posted when they become available.

    Mother and child (and even dad) are all well.

    Dad has published a few photos via Facebook.

    I suspect that mom will post photos here soon, she has been busy....

    Thank you all! It's been a whirl-wind of a week but it's been amazing as well. Even left the house twice so far for the two important events in a child's life - first pediatric appointment and first trip to the Home Brew store. Bitter and Esters is vital for the sanity of our home

    Are both you and child well?

    Did Bitter and Esters breath a sigh of relief knowing that their business would again improve after its 9 month lull?
