First Signs of Labor
Posted: 06-29-07 06:41am

ooh that sounds so dramatic. lol. i lost some of my mucous plug last night, that's all. i was having some mild crampiness all day yesterday too. it's kind of exciting because it's a reminder that im nearing the end. i'm 36 and a half weeks now, 37 on monday. i know it doesn't mean that much to start losing it but it does kind of get your mind working. i've decided to start packing my hospital bag today, gotta make a list of what to bring. i'm gonna make a couple of cds to take with me with some soothing music. i've also decided not to worry too much about a birth plan. i want to keep an open mind and be confident in myself and my partner, that we will be ready for whatever comes.

i'll probably still be sitting here waiting 4 weeks from now lol. i'm certainly not in any rush to have the baby, i figure it'll happen when it's meant to. i'm pretty uncomfortable already at this point. i just keep telling myself that most mom's are pretty uncomfortable at this stage and later, so i'm not alone there. i'm just appreciating every moment because it's just so special to me. okay!!! i just had to share that little bit of news with someone.

Yay, things are moving along for you!! Smile You have such a positive attitude I love it!! All I do is go around moaning all day lol! Smile

I didnt make a birthplan with my other pregnancies, and the way I had them it would have been a waste of time anyway!! I wrote one this time round but its really basic, I dont think there is much point in being really strict about it because so many situations can arise!

Well yay again on the mucus plug! Laughing and I hope things keep going well for you!

I loved it when i got those first signs that the end was in reach! I haven't really made a strict birthplan i've just written a few things that i really don't want just for my own piece of mind that they won't happen

B.R.A.T. just kidding. We are due the same day and you seem to be making a little more progress than me.

I haven't had any braxton hicks, as I can tell, for at least a few weeks now...sigh.
