Thread Name: BS: A Mudcat Baby?????
Subject: RE: BS: A Mudcat Baby?????
In 1981, my wife and I were visiting a close friend and his very pregnant wife. This was their first child and one of the first of our friends to start their family so it was all quite new to us. Out of curiosity I asked if I could feel the "bump" and ended up giving mum (who was feeling very tired and frustrated at the wait) and the "bump" a friendly cuddle for about half an hour. It was a lovely feeling and mum relaxed and was asleep fo most of the time.
My wife and I then went home only to be telephoned about an hour and a half later to say that labour had started as soon as we had left and the baby (a girl)had been born in the ambulance on the way to the hospital!!
Ever since then I have been know as "The Inducer" amongst my circle of friends and frequently get asked to "lay on hands" in order to bring on a late delivery and so far, every time I have done it, a baby has been born soon after!!!
So Max and Emily, I am placing my hands against the screen rite now and thinking "new baby" thoughts.............................(I guarantee that the baby will be born............ soon).
