A false alarm. I woke up at 1:50 am realizing I was having really mild ctx, dozed through them until a stronger one woke me up at 3:16. It was so similar to how my last labor started (also 9 days late and a strong ctx woke me from sleep at almost the exact same time) that I really started to think something was happening.
I laid there for a while and had more mild ones and cervical pricklies. Got up, went to the bathroom, had a snack, sat on the couch for a while and not much happened. Got back in bed, had another few good ones, then nothing, but couldn't go back to sleep. Got up again and was up until 6:45, knitting and watching bad TV, with absolutely nothing happening. DH woke up in a great mood, after all he got a solid 8 hours of sleep
: I didn't want to talk about it so I just told him I couldn't sleep, But he was all chatty and making jokes, and finally I started crying. Complete and total breakdown, here we come...
I did get back to sleep for a few hours after that, drifted in and out as I listened to the kids. So I am not quite as tired but I feel like a wreck.
This end of preggo stuff is so damn hard.

I'm not in your DDC but I had 2 days of prodromal labor like that before DD was born and I just wanted to tell you I know how awful it is. Take good care of yourself today and cry as much as you need to.
