Labor starting?
Tonight I took a bath and had 3 contractions. They felt like my normal BH contractions, but I don't usually get any contractions at all in the bath. Later my husband and I had sex and I contracted a few times during that (which is also somewhat normal). I had a few actually painful contractions afterwards. I fell asleep around 11, then woke up at 12:30 with contractions. They were coming about every 5 minutes for 40 minutes or so, some painful. Then they stopped... I was awake, so I got up and did some laundry and a few other things, then went back to bed. I can't sleep now and have the occasional contraction and I feel like I have too much energy to sleep. So I have dinner in the crockpot (it's gonna be good and tender by the time we're ready to eat, lol), more laundry going, and am packing some snacks for hubby in case we do need to go to the hospital later. I'm 37.5 weeks, exactly how far along I was when my first son was born. I went into labor with my first on my husband's birthday, my second on Mother's Day, so it would be fitting that my labor started on Father's Day with my third! We will see!
I have an appointment at 10:30 tomorrow for NST and OB if I'm not in labor now...
