But, unfortunately, my flirtation with labor came to end around 1 am.
Had such strong contractions last night, and they started coming every 3-4 minutes for about 2+ hours. I even took a bath and laid in bed for awhile to see if they would fade. They didn't, I called the midwife. Decided to wait another hour or so before going to hospital. With that, my labor got shy and ran away. This annoys me greatly because I had this pre-labor junk for weeks upon weeks with Aidan. However, nothing quite as uncomfortable, painful, or prolonged as last night.
After a night of very little sleep, I was rather grouchy today.
We had a little playdate with some friends, Aidan took his new routine short nap, we played, I made waffles, got smoothies from Smoothie King, took a long walk, long shower, and now ready for bed.
Tomorrow is my midwife appt. and we shall see what she says.
I need to just focus on enjoying these last few days or weeks of waiting.
Must crochet. :)
AH! False alarms are so fun, huh? Bummer! Well, I'm sure those contractions just got your body more and more ready for Little Girl's grand entrance. Praying for you!
