Forgive me for my ignorance... but I feel like you've been pregnant since 2005... I must have missed an interum between two little ones?
I was pregnant in '05. (Actually twice-- miscarriage April '05, pregnant again July '05.) Had a baby in '06. Pregnant again in '07 (actually twice-- miscarried January '07; pregnant again July '07.) Will have the baby in '08. And to be fair, I've actually been pregnant since 2003-- when I got pregnant with my eldest. The Ketchup Princesses are Emma, born April '04, Bridey (Bridget), born April '06, and Maggie, to be born April '08. So far. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

You really need to spend more time on Hatrack between pregnancies. It will help limit them.
And how did a thread about the Navies new Rail Gun end up being a conversation about your ongoing state of delivery preparedness? What are they shooting out of that gun, and where are they aiming it?

This thread is making me laugh so hard. And that's not very comfortable when you have a mouth full of Pizza Hut cinnamon sticks.

Oh, I get it. The Rail Gun is listed as an Experimental Munitions Delivery System. That's a typo. It should be an "Experimental Baby Delivery System."
Talk about Induced Labor.
They feed some "safe" trace amounts of heavy metals to the mother. These end up collecting in the kidneys and other important spots. These become super-conductive elements. Then the mother stabs some scientifically adjusted light sockets with a very specific metal allow screw driver.
This creates a nature Motherly Rail Gun Delivery System.
Delivery ensues shortly.
The average speed of the child leaving the mother has been clocked at just under the speed of sound.
The average speed of the child leaving the hospital, through the walls of the building, have been a small bit less than that.
The delivery experiments have been moved to the hospital parking lot to save on reconstruction costs.
The father has been given a new job. Along with telling the wife to "breath" and letting her verbally humiliate him, he now whispers in her ear, "Aim for the net. Aim for the net."

"Mommy, did the stork bring me?" "No, you were delivered via electromagnetic railgun with a muzzle energy of 10 megajoules. Luckily, daddy had a catcher's mitt."

I thought they shot turkeys out of those rail guns, to test fighter windshields. Only trick was, they had to remember to thaw the birds, first.

At least the whole 4 year pregnancy thing wasn't just my imagination.
In my head Ketchup queen is like that wife from Family Guy who is just always talking about being pregnant but no-one addresses the lack of progress.

My mother had all of her four children in under 3 years. So I guess I don't remember her endless pregnancy, but I hear it was a strange time.
