I have been having contractions every 10-15 minutes for the past 4 hours or so. They arent getting closer together at this point, but they are getting stronger and longer and are very crampy and are killing my lower back. I would really like to hold out until tomorrow since I have a certain dr. scheduled along with a certain midwife I love. I worked hard to get my team assembled to have the best experience I can and if I have to go in today instead it will be the on call dr and nurse in a more rushed environment. For once I am trying to hold baby in LOL. Scott on the other hand is really excited it may happen today. He's said all along that he thought the baby was coming today and even dreamt about it last night. As I posted on the weekly thread, some time late friday night very early Sat. morning Scotts uncle passed on very unexpectedly in his sleep. We will find out this afternoon when the funeral is going to be. Poor Scott is devistated. He will probably be leaving for CA wed. or thurs. depending on when the funeral is. He is so conflicted because he does not want to leave the baby and I, but they were so close I know if he didnt go he would feel so guilty and sad about it forever 
Besides for losing his grandparents at a very young age after long illnesses, this is the first experience for him with the death of someone so close. He goes from being so excited about the baby to hurting so badly and feeling guilty about it all. If the baby does decide to come today, at least Scott will have one more day with us before he leaves. My poor mil is so upset and is also very sad that she is not going to be here when the baby was born either. I was going to try and reschedule the c-section, but with my bp up and now these contractions I am way too scared for Scott to go and end up missing the birth.
