Betting Pool
Alright, I'm doing this basically because Hue is holding me to it. It's time to start the "When-Is-Paige-Coming Betting Pool." We'll make it a small bet... about $1.00 if that is ok with everyone. Winner is whoever has the actual birthday or the person who gets closest without going under. For example, if she's born on May 2nd, and May 1st and May 4th are two guesses, the May 4th guesser wins.
Some clues... her due date according to the last-menstrual-period method is May 11th. According to our Level 2 Ultrasound in December it's May 14th. Oh, and the baby just dropped on Sunday March 26th.
Put your bets in the comments section. Winner takes all.
In honor of the dropped baby, let's listen to Snoop Dog and Pharrell

ultrasounds are notoriously misguided late in pregnancy, but i'm still putting my quarters on may 14. but for megan's sake i hope it's sooner..

Alright. Everyone is guessing pretty late. Remember, the estimated date of delivery is based on a 40 week pregnancy, and full term is considered after 36 weeks.
Also, I'd like to add that after discussion with the obstetrician office today, we believe the mucous plug passed early this week.
We can make this pool a little more interesting. You can guess more than one date, but it will cost you a dollar towards the pool for each guess.

A lot of people are making bets that only give them one additional day. This is fine, absolutely fine. Bet whatever you want, because you win if you get the actual birth date. Just don't forget to review the rules in the blog text to see what happens if no one guesses the actual birth date.
This is going great, by the way. Keep them coming. The pool is currently $9.
