Subway baby

Having a baby in NYC has more variables than I could have ever imagined. The other night we found out that the UN is in session and since it's a few blocks from the hospital we're delivering at means that traffic in the area is horrible. Doug decided that if I went into labor we would just schlep our bags onto the subway and avoid the traffic mess. Then my mom could drive the car in in the middle of the night and avoid the traffic. As bad as sitting in traffic in labor in a car sounds, sitting on a smelly subway in labor sounds about 5 times worse. I guess people probably do it all the time, but wow, I hope that's not how it goes down for us.
