How far along? 40 weeks and 3 days…ok, I’m over-ripe at this point.
My total chunk-o-meter: Lost weight again, total of 8 pounds gained. Though I won’t know the final tally until I get to the hospital but for now I’m saying 8 pounds.
I was having strong contractions this morning, from about 3:30 am to almost 10, but they went away. I’m upset to say the least. I have a Dr appt tomorrow afternoon and we’ll be talking about doing a c-section on Friday the 20th if I haven’t gone into labor but I have the feeling in the next day or two I’ll find myself in the hospital. That would be nice. You know, to have a normal labor without any knives involved or pitocin (I can’t have it anyway because of having a c/s with Derek) or anything else to speed things along. So far today has been a repeat of my first day of labor with Derek and this time I’m just hanging out at home for it. I’ll go into the hospital if my water breaks or if my contractions actually get regular and stay that way.
