I was online at about 3 this morning chatting on the fanfic_convos panels, and I started to get this uncomfortable feeling that I was blocking someone from trying to get through on the phone. The feeling got worse and worse, and eventually I logged off, but nobody rang.

Found out today my cousin went into premature labour and had a baby in the early hours of the morning, a little girl called Jessica, and my aunt was trying to phone but couldn't get through *g* Mum and baby are fine, although I feel sorry for my cousin. 9lb kid with no pain relief ("apparently she passed out a couple of times," my mother relayed cheerfully, reinforcing that I never want to have babies unless I can have a surrogate mother or grow them in a tank.)

Also you all continue to rock at buffyverse1000. It's just one big orgy. Much like tigannie_con.

From what I've heard, epidurals make all the difference. If you're going the natural route, expect pain. The only person I've ever heard of that went through labor with no pain is my mother. She insists that she felt almost no discomfort while having me and credits it to mediation techniques she learned. Still not sure if I believe her. *grins*

Anyway, congrats to your cousin (and to you)!
