no need to rush!

Yesterday left us wondering if our little baby is even going to stay in and cook until her due date…

We spent about 2 hrs at labor & delivery at the hospital because my usual braxton hicks contractions were getting a little too close together.  Normally they are about 20-30 minutes apart, when I even notice them… Yesterday, they ranged from 3-15 minutes apart before we went to the hospital, and then were between 1.5-6 minutes apart once I got hooked up to the monitors…

It was a false alarm though, the doctor thinks they were spurred by the internal exam I got that morning at my 35 week appointment.  They’re back to “normal” today, at 20-30 minutes apart, which doesn’t concern the doctors.  Plus, they’re not painful, just uncomfortable sometimes, since it tends to feel like someone is squeezing me with a giant piece of Ace bandage…

For those who care, I was a “fingertip” dilated yesterday (at both my appointment and later at the hospital).

Any bets on when prismaticdragon Jr is going to make her grand entrance?
