Well, after a short but rather intense final labor, Rock-baby NOP was born this morning. We have decided to name him Junior.
He arrived in good form, looking much like the cat scans and x-rays indicated he would. He was a whopping 7mm X 3mm.
I am doing well, but wondering how to diaper the little tot. For the foreseeable future, his crib will be one of the bottles used to previously house the pain killers that kept me going while he was kicking about. That just seemed a fitting setting for him to reside.
Many thanks to all of you that wished me well during the seven week labor.

Oh, how sweet. Baby NOPkins Love that little baby! Our youngest is now already 15 months and not a "baby" anymore. Just make sure you enjoy and relish the sweet moments!!!
But now I'm confused. I thought NOPkins, that you were a man. Haven't you referred to "Mrs. NOPkins" in the past?

So glad you are okay... and that everything came out... correctly and without mishap.
However, Ms. Curiosity herself is sitting in the back of the room... wondering how long it is I should wait to ask if we will be allowed to dissect it and find out just WHAT THE HECK IT IS?!
I would congratulate you but you know my theory about the "baby". It's some sort of pure testosterone precursor and you will shortly be losing all your super-powers. My suggestion would be that you break it in half and surgically re-implant one half near the area where it will prove most useful. The other half you should grind up into powder and auction in an appropriate market. Since you are my friend I am sure you will be happy to front me just a wee little bit to slip into the drink of one of the guys I'm dating.

It doesn't matter about the gender shift as I am already working on giving Junior a serious attachment disorder. He can just deal with the gender issue.
The thing (Junior) is still lying about on a napkin where I have taken some close up "baby" photos. The weird thing is, I can't seem to bring myself to put Junior in his crib, and instead, I find myself throwing expletives at it whenever I pass by. I know that he is going to end up with some major foo issues, but I can't seem to help myself
