I've been mostly a lurker (hello!), learning a lot from this DDC, and I'm due 10-28. Last Thursday I started having menstrual type cramps wrapping around my back to my front, so I was nervous that things were already getting started. MW appt on Thursday afternoon revealed soft but closed and posterior cervix. The cramps continued on and off (sometimes pretty intense) until Saturday morning, but now they've gone. I'm not quite ready for her to come, mostly for her sake (only 37 wks), but I wonder if I'm gearing up already. From what I hear, though, this kind of thing can go on for weeks. We've been hoping for a Halloween baby. How fun would that be?! But I'm trying to roll with her schedule.
