Full Moon... Change Your Prediction?

Most people have heard about people going into labor during a full moon because the gravitational pull will make it easier for the water to break. If this holds true for Molly she will be born around 1:04 AM on June 1st, so if you have yet to make your prediction on Molly's web site, http://www.mollylafferty.com/molly/pickdate.php, this is your chance to cheat a little.

For more information on studies showing the childbirth is more likely during a full moon see the following studies :)

Leiber, A.L. Human aggression and the lunar synodic cycle.

Guillon P, Guillon D, Lansac J, Soutoul JH, Bertrand P, Hornecker JP. Births, fertility, rhythms and lunar cycle. A statistical study of 5,927,978 births

Joshi R, Bharadwaj A, Gallousis S, Matthews R.Labor ward workload waxes and wanes with the lunar cycle, myth or reality?

Molly Learing To Share

This is a picture of Amy teaching Molly about sharing, she got all of her bears out to see which ones she is going to allow Molly to play with. Out of the 214 bears, Molly gets to play with 6 of them :)

Molly's Big Day

This was a big day for Molly! First, she helped cheer on mom's Jayhawks to a victory. Next she helped root on dad's Wildcats to victory and hopefully an NCAA invitation. After all that excitement, it was time to star in her first DVD.

She was so excited for the events of the day that she couldn't hold still, which also gave dad his first view of her moving around in mom's belly. It's one thing to feel her moving, but to actually see it was really cool.

The 4D was amazing, and even though she was playing hide and seek the entire time, we got several great pictures, and the DVD is a lot of fun.

So after dinner and such a full day, mom and Molly fell right asleep while dad, being the huge nerd that he is, updated the web site and blog!

Moving Machine

I had no idea how much babies move around and I think I've figured out ways that I can make Molly move around if she's not moving at that moment. I think Amy really appreciates me encouraging Molly to kick since she doesn't get enough jabs to the ribs the rest of the day :)

Friday is the 3D Ultrasound, there should be a bunch of pictures up this weekend, we will also verify that Molly is in fact a Molly. If not the we have a lot to change... like www.mollylafferty.com!
