After doing what is probably our final and last making whoopie session for awhile last night, I didn't get many contractions. I was pretty bummed. Went to bed, and woke up today with nice steady contractions for the last 45 minutes, about 2-3 minutes apart. I'm sure I'll be here awhile, but its nice to have them doing something!

ummm see my other post

We dtd and I had the cxt lasting around 1 min. every 3 -4 min apart for about 3 hours and now they have spaced out and are nearly gone. I called the midwife at 3:30 a.m. and she came out at which time they started fading. I'm embarrassed now since I thought it was it (no doubt with first ds!) but now we've had a practice run

Good labor vibes - hope your keeps going!!!!

Well its been 4 1/2 hours since these contractions first started happening, and they are still here! Regular, and some of them pretty darn strong! My pain threshold for contraction pain is pretty high which is why I usually get to the hospital JUST in time. My dh is pushing me to call the OB and go in right now, but I'm kinda taking it slow. I've showered, shaved, and finished the last minute packing. Fed the cats, etc.. I tried cleaning the house and walking around, they stayed. They stayed through the shower. Dd 2 wanted to nurse, so we layed down in the bed for about 30 minutes and they were still regular through all that 2 minutes apart. Loose bowels this morning, and lots of "goop".

I am starving though, and we don't have a damn thing in my house that doesn't require cooking. : So we're headed to my SIL's for a bit. She's gonna cook me pancakes. If they get a ton more intense, we can leave from there because she's the one watching my dd for me.

I really don't want to go and be too early, but at the same time.. my OB told me that if I go in they will probably help things along anyway. To stay home, or not to stay home... that is the question.

Wish me some good labor vibes girls. I'll update later tonight if I end up back here. If you don't hear from me by tonight... well... I'm having a baby!!

Namaste, Tara

We've been partaking and I have to say, I don't think it's doing much, though it is surprisingly enjoyable for how pg I am....

Witchymama2, thinking of you and hoping it's moving along well and is manageable!!

Typing from my SIL's house. Ate, hung out here, went to Walmart. I'm gonna hang here a bit more, and then I'll be calling my OB and going to the hospital. Contractions are still consistant, though they are much more painful when I'm up walking around. The pain in my back is getting to be quite a bit though. In between contractions I'm very very crampy down there, and behind. When the contractions do hit I'm getting a bit more aggitated with things.

Hopefully they won't send me home tonight because we're 45 minutes away. Lucikly the snow has stopped! (it was a blizzard this morning) Its still icy out though.

Keep on thinking of me mamas!!
