Well, last night I was up at 3:00 having regular contractions that lasted until 8:00 this morning.\u00a0 They were regular but not getting any stronger, so I called the midwife and she confirmed what I thought–the frequency doesn’t matter but the intensity does.\u00a0 So, after eating breakfast and getting the kids up and ready and going about my day they finally died off for the most part.\u00a0 I can definitely tell they are getting more painful and walking is also more painful, but nothing yet.\u00a0 Which doesn’t actually surprise me, since I was late with the other 2.\u00a0 It’s just disappointing to have the contractions last for so long and then just go away.<\/p>\n
And in light of my morning starting with such uncertainty I had to cancel our adventure plans for today–which REALLY bummed me out.\u00a0 We were going to meet up with Stacy and little Autumn (who is 9 months now!)\u00a0 at a park and let the kids play and then have lunch together.\u00a0 It was going to be awesome.\u00a0 Well, I guess we’ll have to save that for another day.\u00a0 Instead we laid low at home and then I took them out for ice cream this afternoon as or “adventure.”\u00a0 They still thought it was fun.<\/p>\n
Then tonight the kids helped Tim mow the lawn.\u00a0 Yup, I finally decided it was time to relinquish the mowing duties for a little bit.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
My hope is that this baby comes tomorrow.\u00a0 I would just love the idea of coming right on my due date.\u00a0 So punctual!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
