Contest: Guess Baby 2.0's Birthday!

Up for a little contest? Whoever guesses Baby 2.0's birthday to the closest date and time will win...

[drumroll, please]

a $10 Starbucks giftcard!

(Why Starbucks? Because nothing says newborn like espresso? Or maybe just cause you all seemed to like that particular giveaway a lot when I did it a little while back.)

So! To enter just leave a comment with the specific day and time (make sure to specify AM or PM) you think Baby Bruzzah will be born and also leave an email if you do not have a blog or profile with contact information.

Here is some helpful info that is likely completely irrelevent to help you in your guessing:
  • Due date is Saturday, July 2. This is EXTREMELY accurate as I was a charting fool and knew that I ovulated on October 10.
  • Bella's due date was May 19 (also extremely accurate as was based on ovulation date) and she came on May 27.
  • As of Tuesday, I was 2 cm dilated and "quite" soft/effaced and the nursing student could poke the head pretty easily.
  • I get contractions all the time these days, but nothing that you could time.
  • I keep losing bits of my mucus plug. (**Kindly passes vomit bags around.**)
  • I'm feeling especially nesty and am actually finding some energy to get things done.
  • I am experiencing something that rhymes with "moose drools", which is often a labor sign.
  • The midwife thought I would be more likely to give birth prior to 40 weeks this time around.
So there you have it. Start your guessing. Comments will close on Sunday at midnight. If the baby comes before Sunday, then...yeah. My brain would explode. But you are welcome to guess the next few days if you are feeling fiesty.

And go!

  1. Ooh fun! My guess is you are going to go pretty soon because these were the symptoms I had (looking back, I had NO clue it was labor the first time around) and Allie was born the next day!

    So, I guess; Tuesday, June 21st at 4:21pm

    Yay! You are SO close!

  7. I hit 2 cm and had Megan 2 days later! I will guess June 24 at 8:35 a.m. because I want you to wait to birth your child until I'm back in the country and have internet access. Because really, it's all about me.

  9. June 22nd, 6am. Thats an evil time, but I'm only saying it because thats when I had Liv...and really in the whole process and I don't think we even care what time it is! Hoping for sooner though :)

  11. My B-Day's June 27th too:) So I'm gonna have to go with that date too, but I'll say 6pm so that you can sleep in, have an easy labor and be done in time for dinner:)

  14. As much as I want this baby to be born at 7:20am on 7/2, I'm going to guess and say that he will be born on 6/22 at 10:48pm

  15. Fun! Okay, so judging from your symptoms, I would guess that this baby is going to come earlier rather than later than it's due date (but my goodness you were super late with Bella...ouch!). My guess is June 26th at 9:34 am!

  25. I think he will arrive on July 4 at 4am! Hopefully sans fireworks.

  26. I'm going with July 7th (sorry!), because I was 8 days overdue with my first and 5 with my second. At 8:23am and for that I have no reason.

  28. Monday, June 20. In the evening!

    I think you'll go within two weeks of the beginning of your mucus plug unplugging :)

  29. With your latest update about how things went with Bella, I'm going to venture that he'll be Born on the Fourth of July, in the morning.

  30. I'll go with later, though I certainly don't wish that on you! How about July 3, at 1:23 pm. That way we will get a post on your due date about every extra hour feeling like a year. At least that's what I'd do!
