T - 2 Days and Counting
My due date is Tuesday. Today was my guess as to when the baby would arrive--but that doesn't seem to be happening. I've been having strong and majorly crampy Braxton Hicks contractions for the past two or three days, which I think might be caused by how low the baby is situated. At my appointment on Wednesay, the doctor said I was only a fingertip dilated, but the baby was "nice and low." I think I must have dropped after my 3 1/2 hours of walking in New York, so at least something productive came out of that! Today we went for a hike at a state park. I was surprised not to have many BH contractions during the walk. I've been trying to walk most every night and usually I have a lot of contractions during that time. Today, nothing. Yesterday I was totally freaking out because I was having really bad cramps and I started to realize that this birth thing is going to be painful. So I was getting all high pitched and screechy to my husband, saying things like "Oh my God, why am I looking forward to this? It's going to HURT! How did I forget what it feels like? What if this baby comes soon? It's a full moon tomorrow...what if the baby comes then? What if the moon sucks the baby out? I hate the moon!" (Because that's how rational I am). And Tolby, who was in the back of the car, pipes up, "Don't hate the moon, mom. It's okay. It's not going to suck out the baby. It's not." And, believe it or not, that calmed me down. Well, that and the fact that the BH I was having ebbed away.
Re: T - 2 Days and Counting
2 days?!?!?!?!
Thats so exciting....do you have a Nest contact?
We haven't discussed official contact status, but both Orlaith and Jordan will be receiving updates anyway, so they can fight it out amongst themselves who gets to report to you guys
lots of labor dust your way!
wishing you a quick and easy delivery
The night is still young!! You may! Which hike did you do today. I hiked Talcott mountain (Heublin tower) and saw a pregnant lady walking. Was that you? I don't know if I could do it pregnant, it takes a lot out of you. I did it last week and this weekend it was a lot easier.
Here's to the big day coming soon for you!!
Wow!!! So close!!!
Lots of labor dust and hoping for an easy and safe delivery!!
Happygirl--It's a surprise!
Ilovescottd--Nope, wasn't me. I was at Devil's Hopyard, on a very short, easy hike
It was our 2 1/2 year old's first foray into hiking, so we took it easy.
