Lily fell asleep laying across my lap yesterday afternoon. She’s been a little under the weather lately so I left her while I fiddled on my laptop. Then I felt it. Hot and wet streaming into my lap. She slept on right while she wet all over me and the couch. And I just sat waiting and waiting (is she still going?!) until she was done and then I kept sitting, soaked, but she was taking such a good nap and she needed rest. I needed to change my pants.
Mothering in the trenches! Still not as nitty gritty as the time I napped with Lily and got a very different surprise right in my hand. But no one needs to know about that do they? Sometimes you just have to laugh at the glamor of it all.
You deserve an award for that. How about some chocolate? A whole bag of it…. just for you.
I thought at first this was a water-breaking story 🙂 Being wet on does give you enormous respect for how much little bladders can hold. I had 6 hours of strong contractions last night, but nothing now. I pray for a safe and easy delivery for you!
Oh no! I should have prefaced this post with a “this is not it” statement. Sorry to get anyone else’s hopes up!
Katy, thank you and I’ll pray the same for you!
I do don’t I Kristi! Mmmm, make it dark chocolate.
