I woke up at 3 a.M. With a strong contraction accompanied by period like cramps. A little while ago I had the same thing. I know they were like 8 hours apart, but maybe it'll be soon. I've never had painful ones before. I've been cramping and passing tons of mucus. Oh and last night despite my terrible constipation I went to the bathroom 3 times. Bring on the baby.

She dropped more yesterday. My belly looks funny. My mom even noticed. I'm passing a ridiculous amount of mucus and i'm still cramping up. We're waiting.
My husband threatened that he'd give all her stuff away if she didn't come out by friday. Lol

Well I think i've been nesting today. For the last 4 days I have been sleeping almost all day long. Well today I woke up and baked a chicken, cleaned the kitchen, did the dishes which is something only my husband does. He likes to do it, well today he was sleeping and it was bothering me so I cleaned it. I washed some clothes. I had the biggest burst of energy. I even got dressed! I went out the house to walmart to get some pictures developed and I had enough energy to almost run up my mom and dad's stairs (it's 16 stairs) that I usually can't crawl up without getting out of breath. I felt like running a mile. Hopefully it's nesting. I don't know where I found the energy. My back has been killing me all day, but i've been ignoring it. Hopefully this is it!!!
I actually cried last night for almost an hour b/c I feel like it's a big joke and she'll never, ever come. Then today I panicked and asked my husband, "what are we going to do with a baby?"
i'm having lots of mixed emotions right now. I'm want her out to meet her, but i'm terrified that I don't know what to do.

I tossed and turned last night with period like cramping and contractions that were uncomfortable enough to wake me.
I hope it's coming soon. My contractions have never felt like this.
