1. The baby's looks
2. The baby's personality
3. The birth story (nothing graphic, more like "He was born at 11:02 after a 7 hour labor. Labor woke Ursula up at 3am..")
4. How the family is dealing with the newborn
5. Have they talked about more
6. Anything ElseOne afternoon Bernard got a call from his wife, saying she was in labor. Upon arriving to the hospital he was told it was a false alarm. This patterned continued until one morning, more than a week after the due date. Meg thought she was going into false labor again, so this time, unlike the others, she decided to wait it out.

Meg was unhappy with the false labor. She never was too happy with any amount of pain, and labor is rather painful. There was a rather long stretch of time, about three weeks, where she experienced false labor. About a week past the due date, Meg again felt labor pains. She shrugged it off as false labor and continued to cook supper. Once she was done, she walked over to the refridgerator and stepped into a small puddle. Her eyes widened before she shut the door and turned the stove off, before calling Bernard. "My water just broke!"

Bernard raced to her. "Are you serious?" He fumed, as he hated being interupted in the middle of his football game. As he helped Meg to the car he jokingly said "It must be a girl."

"Yes I'm serious!" Meg almost yelled, but she took calming breaths. "It must be." Once they got to the hospital, Meg was raced to a birthing room, though she was sure it would be a while yet until the true madness began. Nearly nine hours later, she delivered a baby girl. She didn't cry. "What's wrong?!" a tired Meg exclaimed.

But before anyone said anything Eve was whipped out of the room. About 5 minutes later the doctor brought her back, pink as can be!
