can-can, baby can you can-can?
as per BajaFam: "Nothing like a 2 day dress rehearsal!! Miss Sirena and Izaak are now at a standstill and the doctor's are telling her it was a false
alarm! Poor mama! Here's to hoping the real thing is a heck of a lot easier on you! "
lead me to think: Dress rehearsal. 2 days. Yup. When I was a dancer with the Golden Chain Theatre (19th century melodrama) we'd have 2 hellish days
of dress rehearsal, false eyelashes and all... hey, maybe Sirena would like to learn the Can-Can!

Sorry to disappoint you guys but nope I'm not in labor...or at least not in the heavy stages yet.
I've been feeling very tired, cranky and have had cramps and aches all day so I'm hoping all those yucky things are good signs.
We have a gynecologist appointment tomorrow morning so we'll have an idea of what's going on. Hopefully we can get this show on the road ASAP!!!

Sirena, cramps and aches are a good sign all a part of this. PS You have a right to be cranky right now all you want, you'll be smiling very soon now.

yeeha, little Vaquero Izaak
While we're waiting for Baby Izaak at the Cowboy Motel here's a glimpse into the life of another sort of cowboy, another type of Nomad:

Hey all!
Just got back from my doctors appointment. It looks like it'll be game on tonight!!
Baby Izaak just does not want to stick his head down so that I can start dilating, which (as the doctor said) means he is too big and it would take
long long hours/days in order for me to start dilating and to be able to have the baby naturally, because of his size, they would probably take me in
to C-section even after I had started natural labor because I'm too small...
So...I got a blood test done and the doctor (the one that I wanted to deliver my baby anyway) will revise those and check the babies weight once again
tonight, if it's the same as the other ultrasound (3.950 kg) she will operate tonight so we should have baby Izaak in my arms by midnight if all goes
well.
I know that I didn't want a C-section at first, but at this point, I'll suffer much much more if I try to have a natural birth and it would probably
result in having an emergency C-section anyway because of my size. If I suffer, my family and friends suffer, and we don't want that, sooooo if all is
well with my blood tests (no anemia or any other risk factors) we should have baby Izaak on his way home by this weekend!!!!!!!
This might be the last update I can give, I'll try to send off another right before leaving for the hospital.
Thanks everyone for your support, I ask for your prayers and good thoughts tonight so that everything goes smoothly and my baby and I come out of the
operation OK!
Lots of love
Sirenita

Well...I have never been a big c-section fan..... until today. We had rehearsed all the ways to avoid being pressured into the operation and were firm
on going the distance with a natural birth.
Well...funny how the best made plans in baja seem to morph into something quite different. After seeing our favorite, sweet doctora, and finding out
that izaak weighed in at 8.7 pounds, we realized that poor Sirenita would definately need to receive stitches "down there" anyway...which is
like...super nasty..worse than any c-section and the doctora went through all the risks involved with trying to coax Izaak out.
So, I'm all over this cesarean option...I figure Izaak & Sirena will run much less risk and be happier to be together sooner than later..she's
well overdue and Izaak just keeps packin on the kilos.
So we will go to hospital with our darling doctor and hopefully Izaak will be evicted from his comfy waterbed tonight.
thanks for hangin in there amigos...it has been really fun for us to hear from you all and believe me, we feel your love and support and have enjoyed
reading your posts. So next post will hopefully be some pics of the big bugger and proud mamma...I still have a few hours till I enter the sisterhood
of grammas.

oh yeah, one more very important thing kids...I would like to thank a kazillion times over sister Mulegena for doing the shari dance in Asuncion. She
stepped up to the plate and is running the show there making it possible for me to be by Sirena's side without stressing too much about our animals,
plants & clients. She is doing an extraordinary job...above and beyond the call of duty and bless her loving soul!!!!! you da bomb girlfriend!!!!

aw, thanks Shari-mine
Entirely my pleasure!
What's life without service 'cause when we help another in love we receive it back Big Baja Time!
Besides, I kinda like wearing this Shari-face (kinda like a Nixon-mask, only nice!)
I have the Keys to the City and have already given a raise to everyone, have freed the fish, let the dogs out, have painted the roses red and in my
spare time am paving the streets in gold!
Sirena becomes a mama soon as she is so totally filled with love for this new life she brings and you get to enter the cloister, eh er oh, no, not
quite that but you're becoming a grandmama!
Watching life weave its web from here in Beautiful Asuncion with love to you all, your Lisa Maria Mulegena
