i hope you are all WELL and trying to have some fun today.

my plan for today is........funny movies, bad magazines, chocolate, maybe an art museum, whatever i want, as long as it is NOT birth related.

trying to stave off the panic. i have arranged to drop the dogs off at their kennel tomorrow afternoon, which, for some reason, really feels so final. like, well, "i guess there is no turning back now, damn it." depression. argh.

last night the kid was SO ACTIVE he was doing the lambada in my stomach and i could feel my cervix opening up, it hurt!!!!! i also lost a nice bit of plug on my walk.

and then this morning, for the first morning in a week, NOTHING. no contractions!! no cramps!! nothing.: : :

its sort of feeling like its just too late. if it was gonna happen this weekend i would be feeling it by now. but i am just being a downer. blargh.

LABOR VIBES TO ALL!

Had to hear all sorts of annoying things at a cookout today.

"You look miserable!" (I wasn't until that was said.)

People asking me, "What will they do if you go two weeks over your due date?" (I like that my mw and I haven't talked beyond my next NST tomorrow. What I don't need is pressure, a deadline for labor.)

"They only let you go a week over your due date."

"Hey, they'll induce you if you go much longer, so don't worry, the end is in sight."

Yeah, yeah, shut up and let me eat my pasta salad in peace!:

just wanted to let you know...before my baby was born I was complaining to a friend that I felt so good there was no way the baby was going to be born soon...and I went into labor that night The few days leading up to labor were the quietest (as far as uterine activity goes) of my whole third trimester. So, you never know. Good luck with your induction...I haven't been posting but I was lurking

Hope all you mommas are holding babies very soon!
