Is This The Week? @SumatraNate's Baby Challenge - #1

in #baby5 years ago (edited)

If you don't know already, my wife and I are expecting a baby.

I have written a few posts about this exciting news, the most recent being Battle Royale: Baby versus Belly. Check out this post if you want to see how active the little guy is.

The Challenge


I will create a new challenge post each week until our baby is born. The goal is to correctly pick if the current week is the week the baby will be born.

The timeframe for this post is October 7, 2018, to October 13, 2018 (central time adjusted for daylight savings time as appropriate).

Important Rules:

  • You don't have to upvote or resteem to participate in this challenge, but it would be appreciated and would be beneficial as it increases the overall payout the winner will receive.

  • Any upvotes for the main post will go to @SumatraNate. Thanks for your support as I provide for my growing family.

  • I will write two comments

    • The baby will be born this week.
    • The baby will not be born this week

  • To enter the challenge for this week, answer the following question under the comment that you believe to be true. You can only answer under one of the comments, otherwise, you will be disqualified.

    How many children does @SumatraNate have?

  • Don't worry if you answer the question incorrectly. The goal is to answer the question under the comment that is (or will be) true.

    • The baby will be born this week.
    • The baby will not be born this week

  • One person will be randomly selected who replies to the comment that proves to be true. That person will win half of the total upvote value (the liquid SBD portion) from the larger of the two comment payout totals. I will send the prize to the winner after I receive the payout for this post.

  • And I will give a full upvote to both comments to increase the payout of each comment.

Details You May Want To Know.

  • My wife is due on October 30, 2018.
  • All of our kiddos have been late.
  • All of our previous kiddos have been girls, and this is a boy. So, who knows? Maybe he will arrive early.
  • My wife just called me after her weekly doctor's appointment. She is 1-2 centimeters dilated. She could stay like this for weeks or could progress in the next few days.

Good Luck!


I wish you all the best and I look forward to hearing from you.

You have 5 daughters.

And ours was due on the 21st of Oct but came early so looks like we just beat you :)

Oh, and I spent about a year north of Sumatra, maybe we ran into each other?

The baby WILL NOT be born this week.

If you think the baby will not be born this week, then reply to this comment and answer the following question.

How many children does @SumatraNate have?

You have five little girls -- one of whom would rather have a puppy. Maybe.

@enchantedspirit - Congrats, you won. The baby did not arrive last week and has not yet arrived this week.

I promised to send you half of the winning vote, which is only 0.07. That is not much so I will send you 0.5 SBD or sponsor you (or a person of your choice) with 1 Steem Basic Income Share. Let me know which you prefer.

How about an SBI share to The STEEM Engine (@thesteemengine). That way, everybody wins. Thanks! Looking forward to the baby -- though maybe not as much as you & your wife are!! Have a good evening.

I sent 3 shares of SBI to @thesteemengine. That was a great suggestion! Still waiting on the baby.

TYVM!!! And as for the baby ... well, rats!! I almost wrote you last night and asked if he was here ... because I really flashed on that! So it won't be long!!

You have 5 girls everyone says...which I didn't remember! But I did know you were having a boy. So exciting that the time is fast-approaching!! I will have to keep an eye on your posts to know when the baby arrives. Wahoo! I have a girlie who was born Nov. 6 and her due date was some time in late Oct. She was 10 days past her due date.
