I still don't have much to say to the belly other than, good god you're getting huge.  When are you going to finally get borne.  However, I've found that laying my head on my fiance's lap and simply chatting with her about the day is a very pleasant experience.  It's become something of a routine as of late.  And while it might not build that father/baby bond that you are talking about, I don't think it hurts it either.  Plus its a comfy place to spend a few minutes relaxing after work every day.  I may even sing your Jefferson's song.  I've just got to remember all of the lyrics first.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1433557971157738193/4818562338817530525/comments/default/4441556663847749619'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1433557971157738193/4818562338817530525/comments/default/4441556663847749619'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.almostadad.com/2007/12/talking-to-pregnant-belly-revisited.html?showComment=1198012380000#c4441556663847749619' title=''/><author><name>Light Strikes A Deal</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11716629569048305675</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.almostadad.com/2007/12/talking-to-pregnant-belly-revisited.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1433557971157738193.post-4818562338817530525' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1433557971157738193/posts/default/4818562338817530525' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1433557971157738193.post-5967393988950561381</id><published>2007-12-17T15:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-17T15:11:00.000-08:00</updated><title type='text'>I have been really enjoying reading your postings....</title><content type='html'>I have been really enjoying reading your postings.

Strangely though I am her favourite human compared to Mummee even though Mummee's voice is constantly heard during waking hours. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;We are expecting our 2nd one now, &amp; sadly I haven't been giving tummy the attention Caitlin received in utero, as Caitlin is still receiving it now. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Caitlin however has been speaking to tummy at our suggestion.
