I'm going to be pacing around all day, so excited!!!!!!

 

[Miss Lydia]

I bet you are!! hang in there.

 

[Sue S]

i'm trying!!!! It hasn't broke threw the shell yet but I can see a little bump & it looks like it's pushing on it. I'm assuming that's normal

 

[Miss Lydia]

Yep!!

 

[Sue S]

Breathe!

Perfectly normal, and here's the really extra tough part -- it may stay like that for another 24 (possibly even 40+) hours! It will likely smack another bump or two, before it fully starts zipping. But it is in the process of finishing absorbing the yolk, so very important for it to finish that process before coming out into the big world!

Excited for you. Hang in there, and don't wear a hole in the floor.

WOW. Another 24hrs or longer, I will have to go buy another pair of sneakers. My shoes plus the floor will definitely be gone !!!! Thanks again you have been a big help
