Trial run?

After the third day of a crazy number of contractions within one hour (today's count at lunchtime was 13; they did decrease when I sat down and rested, so I decided against calling my OB. Wise? Probably not), and increasing discomfort, I am dragging Tim to the hospital. Actually, the on call nurse (?) told me to go, after I called and told her the situation. I think her response was something like, "Honey, you just get yourself to labor and delivery now." This was not how I pictured my evening going, but I'm beginning to think I won't make it until my appointment tomorrow morning without severe repercussions.

I'll either be back posting tomorrow on the silliness of all this, or will be posting pictures of a new little baby.

I second that ! having been induced, I kind of feel like I missed out on something...the whole spontaneous bit seems exciting....can't wait for the good news!

I totally HOPE it is the real thing, but I'm guessing....false alarm--just because that is how my last labor went....(I hope I'm wrong!!!) Update SOON!! :)

April - I was induced with my second, so I was trying like crazy to remember how my FIRST labor went so I might figure it all out again!

Everyone - in some ways I wish I was done (see also: hate last several weeks of pregnancy), but am glad the baby will have a few more weeks to mature.
