Oooo! I'm so excited to hear all about you new little one within the week! Gaaa! Maybe I'm projecting, but it's just so... EXCITING! He's a lucky little guy.

yeah, i agree that the bh contractions are way worse with 2nd (and, i imagine, 3rd) pregnancies. with g, i only had slight, painless tightening. with h, i felt pretty intense bh contractions at times.

Don't worry, they've got birthing balls in the ABC rooms. Here's to hoping you can see fireworks from your recovery room.

lwwb -- Yeah, I really wonder if you ever had any because it seems like one could not miss these things. They are very strong. But I think they get stronger with each baby, just as afterpains do. I know that with Nutmeg, I did not realize they were contractions until I was on a monitor and the doctor asked me, "Did you feel that contraction?"

i could never figure out if I had braxon-hicks contractions and since you thing they dialte the cervix ready for birth, maybe I never had them b/c i have 12/24 hrs or labor and I only dilate up to 4cm so my body never dialate until active labor starts...or I am just clueless and think the B/H is only the baby moving.

prelabor contractions--brilliant! gotta love dr. sears.

i've been thinking about you everyday and wondering how things are going. much love to you all as the big day rapidly approaches!

Kori, You know, I think I've caught Epu telling Nutmeg her birth story that way, and I was frantically making the "cut!" sign across my throat. After 5 years the man still does not understand or care that little kids will repeat everything they hear.

I would have loved to see all the other shoppers.....

I would have loved to see all the other shoppers....stopping, staring, whispering behind their hands. I bet you were a sight!

2009-07-01T21:29:03.756-06:00

Yeah, nobody tells their kid their birth story with "secretions" included, do they? Nothing like, "So Mommy had you right here [pointing] in her belly for nine whole months, and she was wondering when you might come, then one day, she noticed..."

Here's hoping for a little firecracker, but one that doesn't interrupt the baseball event. :)
