I’m not an unreasonable woman, but….
…I thought it was agreed on the homebirthuk list that I would be next in line to give birth after J, who had her baby girl last weekend. And what do I wake up to this morning? Not one, but two birth announcements from list-members. L had a baby girl at 11pm yesterday, and A had a boy at 2 o’clock this morning. Congratulations to both, but really - I was supposed to be next! 
And I’m still not in labour. In fact I feel even less labour-ish than I did a few days ago. Huh.
Where’s that stomping foot graphic then?
George and Freddy have disappeared across the road to a friend’s house, and Jack has been playing football with the pop-up goal thingy in the garden. Barney has combined the ingredients for French bread in the breadmaker and it’s now merrily wobbling away on the counter. Scratchy is cooking roast chicken for lunch, and we’re having slow-cooker Sloppy Joe’s for dinner. So everything that needs taken care of today is done. And now I’m boooorrrred! I wanna be holding my baby!
