Still Here, Still Pregnant

But I think I am getting closer!!! 37 weeks 4 days today.

Yesterday morning I was feeling fine. No sign of upcoming birth in sight. Than as I sat at a Halloween party doing absolutely nothing, I suddenly had a mild contraction. But it was different cause it got my attention. My lower back was aching during it. So I started paying closer attention. For the rest of the evening I kept having them anywhere from 20 min apart to 5 min apart at times. Not too painful to talk but crampy in my lower back.

Then later in the evening I got totally nauseated. I don't usually get sick like that when I am pregnant. That was the first time this pregnancy. Many are telling me that nausea is a sign of labor coming. I hope so!!!

Well, I went to bed. Tossing and Hoping that it was the real thing. Next to me my husband was tossing and hoping it wasn't. He is headed to Edmonton today to meet some guys about golf course stuff. He will be back Friday. I was thinking in all my woman power that I could go into labor in the middle of the night. Have the baby and he could hurry up to Edmonton after and promptly return tomorrow. Well lets just say he is greatly relieved that this morning I am back to my not painful contraction self.

So I am off to get more prepared. I have my hospital bag packed (for the first time ever!) I have car seat set up and ready to go. I've got stacks of adorable baby soft football inspired outfits for our "Cowboys baby!" And I've got lots of sweet little blankets just waiting to swaddle a little one! I have also gotten the majority of appointments for the kids done. But, I really need to stock up on food, meals etc. This cold weather is not a place I want to be taking my baby out in more than I have to. Barry says to PLEASE not overdue it today! 
I make no promises!!! I'm ready to meet this babe!!!
