Still Here...

Sorry. Not off having a baby yet. Just feeling constantly tired and an overall feeling of general yuckiness today, so haven't been online much since Friday. Figure I should get the rest now, while I can. Will need it for labor... and certainly be missing it once he's here.

Went to the mall yesterday morning and walked. Lots of contractions at the time. Stopped as soon as we got in the car and I sat down.

Mom came over last night and cooked dinner for us. Tacos. YUM! And... just in case there was any question... we debunked the "spicy food for labor" myth. Baby was very active after I ate it... and I had contractions at 7 minutes apart for about 2 hours... but, they stopped, I chewed a couple of TUMS, went to bed and slept great all night long.

Contractions at 10 minutes all through church this morning. Then nothing.

Seriously... enough of the practice. Let's get this show on the road! Maybe tonight's full moon will do it...

Today is Piper's 8 month birthday... would be a great day to have a baby.

Seriously though, I hope it happens soon for your sake and of course so you can cuddle your little one.

Do enjoy the newborn stage. Even though I think it just gets better, I find myself missing the very newborn stage.... sigh.

Kat-I really hope he decides to come soon. Have you tried any tricks to start labor? Ex:Bd'ing,black and blue cohosh, evening primrose oil. Just a thought. All natural remidies. Not feeling good is a good sign.. Hope he's here soon and it's a quick and easy labor.
