Just to help further science, y'all can also cross the following off the "natural induction methods" list: Whoppers (the movie theater size), fun-size butterfingers (a larger sample size might be in order), and Hershey's nuggets--with almonds and without. Also off the list: large amounts of black licorice.

My mom and me--we can sure pack away a bunch of black licorice!

So, anyway, I'm still here! Still pregnant! Still ready to HAVE! THIS! BABY! NOW!!!! But SOOOOOOOO much less stressed, now that we have "officially" moved my due date back a week. It was supposed to be tomorrow, but now we are going by the 26th. It's such a silly psychological thing, but I'm feeling much less stress about it. Still really hoping the baby makes it's appearance before my mom leaves on the 24th, but it will all work out as it's meant to.

And tomorrow is our 9th anniversary! And we are so very much in love! And very committed to each other, and our family together. How could I possibly ask for more??

So, I think I'll go rock my sweetie's world, then pee, then waddle back to bed, then grunt and groan for a while trying to get comfortable, then get up and pee again.....

G'night, all!

Tonight doing a self check I was able to feel his head at the tip of my middle finger, it wasn't like that last night....soooo...trying to not get my hopes up, but hey something's happening!!!

[zjande]

It's just little ol' me, trying not to get my hopes up & such, but it IS 3am & I haven't been able to sleep through my cramps & pains & such. And they APPEAR to be coming every 3 minutes apart now. So, I'm just surfin' mdc waiting for them to get stronger before I wake anyone or start freaking panicking right out of my head, er, I mean, focus on my delicious, calm, magical UC.


But, whatever. I'll probably not actually have the kid til January.

Whoa, another one exactly 3 mins from the last........

[redeyedvireo]

Woo, Zjande! That's so awesome!

I'm here because I'm having contractions that get really painfully crampy, and over the last hour they've gone from every ten minutes to every six, though still a little irregular. I don't want to wake Joel up, or call the midwife, or my mother, because it's quiet here at 3:00, and I don't want to give up my spot in front of the fire so people can sleep in the living room. But if I don't call people soon, Mom might not get here in time (five hour drive), and the midwife might not come with the hose for the pool in time for me to use it. What to do? Plus, what if it's not labor at all? I have to say, this pain, I was not expecting it.
