Monday 30 April 2012: All the planning in the world

Today I made Sarah a present. It's a baby probability chart.

Each day she can cross of the day before and get the probability of having a baby in the next 24 hours.

Tomorrows probability is 0.9% (pretty much 1/100).
There is a 83% probability she will make it through the next 9 days of work. Although 13% chance of not seems high!

It was fascinating putting it together. I'm amazed that no-one before now has mentioned to us that 70% of babies are born before their due date.


Today I'm grateful for:

- a little ray of sunshine after all the rain we have had.

- mp3s and digital music. I have my CDs out at the moment to re-rip and they are so bulky!

- graphs. My boss said the other day, "people either speak graph or they don't". It's so true, and I definitely do.
