'You're still here?'

Here's a gentle suggestion for anybody who works with someone very pregnant and past her due date: If she shows up for work, still carrying a baby, don't keep asking her, "You're still here?"
Anni's been getting plenty of that in the past week as she continues to work while awaiting the onset of labor, whether it be contractions or any other sign that Bun is even thinking about making an exit.
We'll get a better idea of when this baby's coming after a doctor's appointment this afternoon. Anni either will be induced beginning tonight or will go in for a C-section Friday. Or, perhaps, there will be a new twist.
I'll update the blog when we get a better idea of what's happening the next few days.
In the meantime, Anni's headed to work this morning, where she no doubt will hear:
"You're still here?"

Dear Bun, We're waiting patiently little one, but many people are getting very anxious to meet you. We know you will come when you are ready, just know that there are a lot of people who love you and want to hold you in their arms and help guide you through life's journeys. Love Aunt Renee & Uncle Fritz
