From one Country to Another: Babies in Mexico

There is no birth control better than having to live with a brand new baby. The crying all night and day. Watching the tired parents walk around like zombies for the first week looking so helpless. Watching the pregnancy for the whole nine months and how miserable she looks in the last couple weeks. Listening to how much it hurt. But then again watching your 20 year old niece have her first baby boy while you have not even had one kid kind of makes you think about things. In the last two years there has been 5 new babies within the family on both mine and javi's side. Sometime we think about how much we spoil our new nieces and nephews and why we aren't spoiling our own. Of course it is always nice to be able to spoil and play with them and then hand them over when they start crying, get cranky or when they leave a lovely present in their pants for you. I'm just saying!!

Well last weekend we had Lupitas baby shower, cutting it close of course because she was ten days away from her due date. Early that morning she was saying how uncomfortable she was and not feeling to good. That night she went home looking miserable. The next morning we got a call that she was in the hospital and going to be having the baby that day. She had been there since 5 in the morning and we arrived there around 11. No one was able to go in the room to see her, not even her husband. ( This kind of freaked me out because I always thought that if and when we were going to have a kid I wanted to be here so that I would not have to be away from Javi and not have to travel with a brand new baby). It turns out the baby was born at 11am, we were not told until 1:30 and we would not be able to see her until 4pm wow. A lot of waiting without any updates, kind of sucks for everyone involved but when we talked to her later she said she was fine by herself and did not mind not having everyone there. Hu, who would of thought?
