Jenny and I have been best friends for, literally, all of my life. My birthday is October 15, 1979 and hers is October 17, 1978. Her mom and my mom were friends when I was born. We've been best friends ever since. Jenny has a 10 year old son, Anthony. In 2004, she decided that she was ready to have another child and I was ready to have my first child. We thought it would be so cool to be pregnant at the same time. In late October she called me and told me the good news-she was pregnant!! In late November I called her and told her my good news-I was pregnant!! What are the chances of that!! We spent the next several months comparing kicks, heart burns, cramps and pains. Her due date was July 18 and mine was August 7. We threw showers for each other and waited for the big day. We had no idea what a big day that would be!! On July 16, 2005 she called me at 5:30 in the morning to tell me that Jack was finally here! He had been born at 4:30. We talked for a few minutes and she said she would let me get back to sleep, however, I was sleeping. I had been having contractions for about an hour, sympathy labor? I told her I would be up to see her in a few hours. That didn't work out. I really was in labor. I called my mom and we went to the hospital. I still didn't believe it. There was no way we would have our babies on the same day!! Well, I was wrong. Alivia Marie was born at 5:57 pm-the same day!!!!! How weird. To top that off, my sister was also pregnant with her first child. She was due on December 2. (it's been a busy year!!) She had her son on December 6, 2005-this was also Jenny's son Anthony's 10th birthday. I couldn't have made this up!!
