Title: Your water just broke: Time to dilly-dally!

Text:

You’ll probably never feel more attractive or more pleasantly bloated as you will during your last few days of pregnancy. As your contractions begin, it’s natural to want to dawdle in rush hour traffic for as long as possible. Let's face it; your final week is an experience that begs to be prolonged.

It's probably why you’re considering traveling across town to have your baby, even though Swedish/Ballard is right in your backyard. You'd like to give us a shot but how will you be able to delay childbirth until the last possible moment? We suggest loitering. At the onset of labor simply walk or drive to our birthing center. Then, find a comfortable spot in our parking lot and pull out this free crossword puzzle. Take as long as you wish. When you're finished, saunter in at your own pace, deliver your baby and wave a teary goodbye to your perfectly swollen ankles.
