Right, that's it. Call the cops. This is beyond ridiculous. In fact it is so ridiculous that I am going to engage a team of top lawyers to sue my unborn child.
Where are you child o' mine?
Two days? Two damn days late. I don't have time for this. I should be drinking champagne on a boat. Or in Da Club wearing a white suit with sunglasses, nodding at random folk.
I accept that due dates are not an exact science but I am starting to feel I have been sold a pup. Is this really the Truman Show? Am I being filmed? Should I go out on to the street and shout
At the sky?
Every day I go into work and every day I get the same questions.
Hey, you're here! No sign of the baby yet?
Or
What are you doing here!!!
Or
Wow, when is it coming?
Well if I had ready access to a crystal ball I might be able to say. Or more likely I would be on a beach being served gin in an exotic glass by a lady with a parrot in her hair having raked in my gigantic lottery win.
My easy going smile is becoming a thin thing. A bitter earthworm masquerading as my mouth, behind which lurks insomnia and madness.
As the day marched on I contacted my good lady.
How goes it chick?
It's good. I am 3cm dilated according to the midwife.
Hmm. Not quite the scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark I was hoping for.
But what does that mean?
I whined, like a little whiny thing whining at the moon.
We just have to wait and see.
Hmmph, wait and see. I will wait and see alright. Why I am gonna... I am gonna...
Hmm.
Wait and see I suppose.
lol good things come to those who wait :) I think the baby has your sense of humour and it's planning to come out on the weekend 😂 😂
Haha, oh lord. You know, I think you will be right there. The cheek of the young lad!! :0D
lool can't blame the poor lad!
Hey guys!! You know I love to answer a comment but struggling to stay logged in. I will answer em all, sorry if it isn't as quickly as normal!!
Yea Steemit is not working very well this last week!
I have noticed an annoying issue when I comment and vote on a reply sometimes one or the other dont go through. Still needs some wrinkles ironed out!!
Yes lots of glitches unfortunately!
It especially sucks when you write a meaningful comment to someone you care about and think you communicated but then it doesn't go through and they think you left them hanging......
I FEEL YA!
Awwww booooo!!! Hissss!!!
We were seven days in the hospital waiting for our wee bundle of joy to make its way out, food luck and enjoy the wait.
On a totally and absolutely unrelated note, every time someone mentions the term FUD in relation to the DDos attacks I can't help but smile and am tempted to tell them. What a fud is in Glasgow... My favorite explanation is from the urban dictionary
Haha, oh I know. I always think exactly the same when I see FUD somewhere. That urban dictionary definition is the best one!
better late than never
as long as they're both okay eh?
perhaps the doc or the doula made a wrong computation?
You know maybe that's it, maybe he ain't late!!
Now, at the risk of getting flagged down, I share with you a public secret...
When my offspring took her time to arrive someone came up to me in the pub, said: "You seem to be a lot here lately, how come."
It was my better half, wanting me to come home, sober. And then I answered: "Well, I do what I am supposed to do, wait for our precious to arrive. But it is taking for ever!"
Then a young woman came along and whispered: "Orgasms..." Filling the air with a smell of alcohol as she slowly passed by like Captn Jack Sparrow.
"Oi! You know I'm still here! Now let's go home, your place is with me, not easy drunk young women..." My cheek really was warmed up quite well by her hand. She always knew how to give me a good slapper when I was in need of one. Like I wrote: she's my better half.
And that magic word orgasms really made me want to go home. Because what better fun way to get our new born out as fast as possible!?
To cut a long story short, my beautifull awesome daughter was born 14 days late.
So I guess that orgasm thing is just a tale. Had lots of them, but it did not help. Then, when efter my little one was born, I told my angel that now was a caring mother too.
And she replied: "No you dumb goof, it was me that was supposed to have them, not you...!"
Ah, now it started to make sense to me.
Hope your little Boom may arrive soon mate!
Just show him/her a nice pint down there, the little one will come soon! :D:D:D
A nice point is always a draw!
Thank you for posting @meesterboom.
Lovely writing......and images...everyone will want one....a parrot that is...
and that line.....
.....My easy going smile is becoming a thin thing. A bitter earthworm masquerading as my mouth, behind which lurks insomnia and madness.....
And the Truman Show....oh what a reminder.....we are...all Truman now....
Oh welll.....btw...now is a good time to contact thedegensloth at Discord...tell him bleujay sent you....he is expecting you.....haha...he said he is a bit slow....however bleujay is sorted and I hope you will be soooon....in more ways than one.
Wishing you and yours all the best....Captain.... ^_^
Oh my, I most certainly will!
We are all Truman now :0) I definitely agree there.
I do think the parrot will be quite the trending thing now ;0)
Quickly got up to date with all your posts - were sidetracked a little - as usual loved every one. Hmmm this little one already has a will of her own. Good luck for the wait - before you know it it is time and then I wish I could say you stress will be gone..... uhm no, apparently we never stop worrying about our kids. Good luck that side
We really do never stop. I know this and am happy!
Thanks for the wishes :O)
Good luck man yeah just try to be patient! 😀 😃 😄 😁 😆 I hope you have a WONDERFUL day!
I sure did and thank you!
Great. By the way, thanks for being an inspiring Steemian in general and connecting on here! 🤡 🤠 😏 😒 😞 I hope you have a wonderful day!
You have a wonderful day too dude!
Thanks I'm at Starbucks now, just had some soup now going home. 😀 😃 😄
Smashing!
What does "Smashing" mean in this context. I am a linguist so I ask these questions often, not always to other people :-)
Well, I won't tell you how late my sister @uglysweater went with her first. If two days has you in a twist, trust me, you don't want to know.
Oh no, please don't. I am in a twist alright. I think I am behind quite annoying!
Lol. I can understand the frustration. But don't worry it is just going to come out alright and at just te right time. It might need something which needs a couple days or a few more maybe and the place its in, is the best place to provide. So yeah! Take it easy and hope it comes out alright.
I know!! I am trying my best to be patient. It's all a bit fraught!
It's part of the game dear friend @meesterboom, and it will come.
to me happened something similar, the wait was terrible, when the baby arrives all waiting is forgotten. we will be ready to try the arrival of the child.
A big affection for you and your lady wife.
You are right of course, it is part of the game and when the baby arrives all will be forgotten!!
Hopefully soon!
Your child will come, there was never a baby who stayed in the mother's womb. Don't worry so much, otherwise, you will be too tired when the time comes and that's the time you need your energy most!
Understandable, but please be patient and stay calm. As a mother of three children,(@exyle is the youngest), I know how important it is that the partner stays calm. It's a lot of work to put a baby in the world, a restless man is the last thing you can use.
(but I like the way you describe your state of mind very much!)
That is a very good way of putting it. Of course there has never been one that had stayed in. I am just being silly and impatient :0)
This must be your first, if so just think of all the things you wife has to learn, I would hazzard a guess that it wasn't the first time that your wife became pregnant, it took time to learn. This is also a new thing for her. Inbetween times while you are waiting get as much sleep as you can, you will be missing a lot after the baby arrives.
Tis the second!! We have learned a lot but I have the feeling we are going to have to learn it all over again :0)
I still advise "get all the sleep you can, while you can.
I have been doing my best!
Kids these days - no respect for their elders, no sense of responsibility...you need to teach that kid some manners!
paciencia paciencia que ya viene...Dios les bendiga. todo saldrá bien, me gusto el corto de la película es una de mis preferidas. Indiana Jones!
Estoy haciendo todo lo posible para ser paciente. es terriblemente difícil !!
jajaja si que lo es..cuando tenga un tiempo le da un vistazo a mis ultimos post. gracias ya tiene mi voto
hahahahaha you know whats real funny is...WHO DECIDES when the RIGHT time is anyways?
I mean come on like there is some exact day the baby is "complete" or "supposed to arrive"
hahahahaha
You are right as ever, it was after this post that I kinda became all zen and thought hey. The baby is gonna come and thats that. It is just a case of waiting!
All in due time....The Zen state is a wise state∞§∞
I agree, zen'edly
hahaha u sure do have a way with words ;-)>
Just call it boom language!
I do like to twist them about somewhat!
Boom language it is, actually, maybe boom talk!
Ooooooo wait how bout BoomSlang!!!!
yea boom language is quite accurate but not so good sounding hahaha
BoomTalk or BoomLingo I like even more!
Imagine going through the same questions for 2 weeks, stop moaning you wimp lol
But it worked! It was thanks to my impatience that he obviously decided to kick the barn doors open and stampede!
What did you do, scare it out of her hehe
I reminded him of the gentleman's code. That it is a sign of poor breeding for a man to overstay his welcome in a ladys vagine
That is a good point, cant overstay your wekcome :)
Good luck for the week end, might be little easier when you are at home. I use to tell my wife to turn round because the baby kicked me awake :-)
Haha, ours was pratically doing the same!
Definitely worth an upvote and a resteem :)
Thank ya very much!
I've just got to try this out once.
Nice post!
Ok, having set that bait I'll just say that you are not alone in your apprehension at the delay. I'm sure many of your followers are waiting with breath "baited" for "that post" that will describe the arrival. It's going to be a corker. Any day now I'm sure!
Hehe, I world hate to let anyone down but it will probably be a short tense affair! Lol
The waiting is becoming quite unbearable!!
ehm... some of my friends waiting their baby some days after the "predicted" day. I don't want you say how much was in later, but don't worry: before or after the baby arrive! :D
My daughter came in schedule, but my idwife said to me that there are 2 times: a times for doctor and a time for moon. Maybe the new BabyBoom will be in time for the moon ^_^
I hope he is in time for the moon! That would be a fine thing. I have given up hope of it being soon and instead am ready to wait for whenever :0)
"I whined, like a little whiny thing whining at the moon." ... LOL!
I have a cheese tray, wine, crying towel and violin all ready for you! Hahaha! Sorry, I know it must be so frustrating for you; but I couldn't resist. Sending you lots of positive thoughts that all goes well and smoothly ... whenever it does.
Hehe, Cheers m'dear!!
I have a hoard of beer tracked up for when the event happens. So am happy to wait now :0)
And not whine... Lol
I feel your pain, because if there is one quality I was not given an abundance of it's patience. I hate waiting!
I do love Raiders of the lost Ark though. Man that scene where the nazi's face melts off is the best!
Snakes, I hate snakes!
The melty face thing is classic!
Snake are bad. As is waiting. I am seriously impatient. I have done will to last till now!!
Normally if a daily poster doesn't post I worry, in this case I knew why! So much love to you and yours :)
Hehe, thank you lass! It has been quite the day! :O)
Bahaha, the boulder in the video...very apt!
My brother's child is due today and I need to fly back to England from Spain once it's born but due to little blighters not being so timely, I can't pre-book a flight. So he's late AND he's making me pay more for a last minute flight. He's not even been born yet and he's already a selfish little bastard hehe...
The first thing that came to mind!
jagan malas tetap semangat waktu adalah uang
don't late
In some respects water can be used as a currency, yes. I believe it is common among the Bedouin.
a very good post my friend,
I really like your post,
Cheers mate!
yes friends, friends please help into my posting, even then if my friends are not troublesome.
I was born 2 weeks late! My mom and dad finally went to a party and my mom danced a lot. Then I was born the next day. I have struggled all my life to get anywhere on time, or get anything done by a deadline. But I can be content where ever I am. Hope your new one makes an appearance soon!
He sure is taking his sweet time, isn't he? Probably snickering inside the womb thinking about his first worldly mischief. Although, with every second that passes, I'm really getting suspicious about all of this being a ruse. The theory you brought up about your good lady's golden ticket to unlimited massages and foot rubs is getting more traction all the more.
Would you believe that when I was a kid, when I wanted to grow up I wanted to be Indiana Jones? Haha! I wanted to be an archaeologist because of that guy, and only when I was an adult did I realize that... he should've ran forward effectively avoiding the boulder instead of running in the same direction. See that space beneath the boulder? Great job, Dr. Jones.
Absolutely you should always wait for something special ...no need to be in a hurry. Your blessing is on the way..hiyaaaaaaaaaaa
The last days are the worst...pace the floor and wait. Soon, Mr. Boom. Soon.
And it popped!
