I'm over being pregnant. Yesterday the baby moved to a butt up in the air position (feet in back)--from the feet to my left side position she's been in since 24 weeks. She's way way down. I can FEEL HER HEAD between my legs! I had had 2 days off from brown show. I had bloody (pink), shiny, egg white like mucous last night before bed. There was so much liquid that I thought my water might have broken.
I watched 2 hours of TV and had tender--almost painful--contractions but I didn't time them because I didn't want them to stop. I'd say they were about 10-12 minutes apart.
I laid down to sleep. I woke up this morning thinking, "OMG! I'm still pregnant. I'm still here. COME ON BABY!"
I'm just done!
On Monday I had another OB (mine was on call) who told me I was 'barely soft' and not dilated at all. When, the week before my OB told me that I was super soft and 'at least 1'.
Ugh. I just want to cry.
I can't go far from home because we have one car and I'll need to go get my husband ASAP from work (it's less than 2 miles away) if my water breaks. I really wanted to drive 90 minutes to get my little sister to watch my daughter if I go into labor (and 90 minutes back). But my husband doesn't think it's a great idea, so I'm stuck not going more than 5 miles from home. I have a feeling that part of why i'm not going into labor is that I am not comfortable with not having a choice between bringing our daughter to the hospital or not. She really wants to be there, but we don't have a support person for her, so I think that's making me nervous.
With a 4 year old being home all day is not much fun--because she's getting sick of being home! Heck, I AM getting sick of being at home.
Dear Baby,
Come out, come out, whereever you are!

Just think of it this way, your babe is so low, she won't have that far to travel when the action begins!
