Make sure you have gotten something to eat. Last thing you want to do is to faint in the delivery room cause in all the excitement you forgot to eat all day.

Good luck!

Congrats on the baw you're about to welcome into the world. When he comes out talk to him a little and watch how he recognizes your voice. He's been hearing it for awhile now.

Unless somebody makes you, don't look when he crowns. You will see things you never wanted to.

Get coffee and eat something.

Congrats.

Prayers sent my friend. One of my daughters was born 6 weeks early. She had no complications and it was never an issue.

He'll be fine. They'll put him in that little box for a week until his lungs strengthen and he'll be great. My cousin's kid was born a month and a half early and now he's a healthy PITA 10 year old.

Congrats!

35 weeks is not really early, IMO...probably not that much certainty in the projected due date.

may be the last saints game you will be seeing for a while, so enjoy!

if they can't stop the labor with an IV drug they will give your wife shots to help the baby's lungs.
