Officially timing contractions
So although I just posted my update about my appts last night I am already officially timing contractions. I have been having sme "crampiness" since last night. I went to bed around 2 am pretty uncomfortable and honestly not thinking anything of it. I needed to switch sides a lot last night because I was having so much cramping. Of course Matt was at the hospital ALL night (just walked in the door about 15 minutes ago) and is exhausted. He is trying to catch a cat nap while I continue to time my contractions. They've been pretty consistently staying at about 6-7 minutes apart. I am waiting another 15 minutes to call the doctor so that I will have been officially timing them for an hour. My mom is on her way over to watch Kate.
This is kind of exciting for me (except for the pain!) because I didn't go into labor on my own with Kate. It's a little strange to think that I could possibly be in labor at 37 weeks - especially since it took 36 hours and an induction to get Kate out! Hopefully it's not just BH and they won't send me home. From what I remember (and it's not that long ago!) this is it! I'll keep you all posted!
