So I had an interesting night Wednesday; or a fun Thursday morning. Fairly sure something laborish was going on-- my entire torso felt like it was in knots and was about to explode via implosion. There were also the moments when I timed actual contractions (or the peaks of the weird feeling), nothing too serious at 8-ish min apart. I really WAS trying to relax and sleep, but it wasn't happening, so I got up and did stuff. Mostly I was worried about bringing a baby home to our master bedroom, since we'll be sharing for awhile, and my room has been on the bottom of the list AND it's been the dumping and sorting ground for the massive filing project I hope to complete before Rhysinor makes her lovely appearance...
So yesterday that was the focus. I had one of my old primary students come over and help for a few hours and now I feel the room is at least not scary if not slightly welcoming. More to do of course. I told my delightful little helper that if I had any intuition of the pregnant kind, I would say this baby is coming soon--especially because the laborish stuff went on all day. But I thought Jane was a boy (which she's not) and that she'd come early (2 weeks late)...so yeah.
Last night I slept great and today I feel "normal" at least so far ;-) So much for intuition and horrah for time to get stuff done!

I was just checking in ... hoping to see a new baby! Hope you are hanging in there.
Good luck! I'll be checking back all the time . . . because that's just what I do when someone's so close like this. I blog-stalk them until the baby's born and I can get my fill of cute newborn pictures!
I'm sure she'll come when she's ready. She's still got an acceptable buffer zone at this point.
How sad that I didn't even know you were due so soon! Wow! Good luck with everything! And my husband will be in MN next week actually. That's twice in the last month. Next time I should go with him!!
