YAY!  Congratulations!

Given that both my mom's babies were late (1 week and 3 weeks!) that might
skew the odds in your favor.  But who knows?  I don't know about babies
being late or early that my grandmother (who I'm supposed to be most
like) had.

(On the baby that was 3 weeks late, she went to the obstetrician on
Thursday, and he said that if she didn't go into labor by Monday, he'd do
a C-section.  She went into labor the next afternoon, and had the baby
just a few minutes shy of midnight....  That was my sister.)

        Julia
