INFO: What's a doula?

To assist in the ushering of Future Spey unto this earth, John and Wendy of procured the assistance of a doula. Exactly what a doula is can be best explained by our favorite online encyclopedia here (at least far better than I can explain in any case).

Not exactly a mid wife, but more of a chaparone to the entire process it would appear. I am told that Future Spey's doula is an professional vetren who will provide experience and resources beyond what one can extract from Dr. Spock.

With Wendy on the cusp of full-term, the time of a brand new Spey is nigh. Exciting stuff. There is still plenty of speculatin to be done, however, and we'll continue to blog Future Spey's development, despite the name being anachronistic after his zeroeth birthday. Now that the naming debate is over, or at least proven moot, we can devle into other fun and important stuff. Like what sports teams Future Spey will root for. Inconsequential to the parents most likely, but paramount to future Uncles anyway. The raging debate continues shortly.

You need to set up some sort of Countdown-to-Spey ticker...today, I needed to know when Wendy was due, and I of course came to FutureSpey for my needs - but no ticker! There could also be a pool for the *actual* date/time. Hmm....
 
Wendy is due on March 26th!!!! ACK
 
An excellent idea Megan! how would one go about doing that? i am evidently not blog savy enough.
 
Wow, it's actually scary easy....go to tickerfactory.com/ezticker, and you can choose from different kinds of (admittedly, pretty cutesy) tickers, custom designed for events just like having a baby. Click on pregnancy, answer a few questions, and voila! It produces some code for you which I am assuming (since I don't use Blogger), you can cut and paste. Woo hoo!
