January Jellybeans 2013!...

[AJThomas]

Ooh hope this continues for you - definately sounds like the real thing if you're in that much pain.

Or maybe I'm just a big baby and a sucker for pain

 

[jrowenj]

Woohoooo AJ!!!!

Afm- I feel so much better... Whcih stinks bc I guess it means nothings happening. Spotting jhas stopped. BH have stopped. I slept a full, wonderful 8 hrs...

 

[duckytwins]

AJ, I would call in of you're in that much pain and the contractions are regular. It sounds like you're in labor to me.

 

[AJThomas]

They seem to be getting further apart, like every 10 mins now, just long enough for me to doze off and then wake up with the next one I'll monitor it a bit longer and see. On the bright side, even if its nothing I guess my body is gearing up for the main event.

Aj- fingers crossed for you... It would be a fun birthdate 12-21-12!

For the BH question I think everyone is different. My SIL had tons of BH in her last trimester and were one of her worst symptoms... But she had to be induced a week late. My mom had barely any and I arrived 3 days late. So who knows? I should ask my MIL as my dh was almost three weeks early!

 

[Lilahbear]

I still don't think I've had any BHs. I have had pains occasionally but nothing that feels like tightenings.

 

[Betheney]

Contractions still coming, so far between 6-8 mins apart, a little over 1 min long each time. Boy do these things hurt! I have to get on all 4s or stand up each time I feel one coming, how do ppl do this on their backs! I'm dreading real contractions if these are so bad already.

Yaaay i'm so excited!!!

Both labours i have spent the whole time lying on my side. Which is some peoples worst nightmare. I do agree that lying on your back would SUCK! But i always found i need to lie on my side and spend all on my energy staying calm and concentrating on pain coping and i go completely within myself. As soon as i stood up i was like "FUCK THAT MAKES IT WORSE I GOTTA LIE DOWN!!" hahahaha.

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Hope this is it aj!!!

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Omg these period type cramps are killllling me! And my hips feel like their spreading apart!!!

 

[brieri1]

Hope this is the real deal, AJ! Woohoo!

AFM, 38 weeks today!

 

[AJThomas]

Still here, 9 contractions in the last hour, still about a minute long, most of them have been 7 mins apart, one as long as 14 mins, the shortest has been 3 mins so I still dunno if its the real thing. Had 3 BMs so far and the more intense contractions make me nervous, still having pink when I wipe too so we'll see how it goes. I don't want to call my midwife until I'm absolutely sure this is it.

Would love a nap but I wake up for every contraction so that may not be possible.

 

[jrowenj]

Well, after having weird brown mucus discharge since tuesday, I just wiped and its bright red... Hope this means somthing!

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Ahhh, too much excitement going on, I don't know if I can take it! Hahahaha.
Go girls, go!!! LOL

 

[mellywelly]

This is so exciting!!!!!!

 

[mommyof2peas]

babies born at the end of the world YAY. I cant wait to see pictures and birth stories! its all thats going to keep me going while I wait for my little bean!

 

[jrowenj]

Did u call dr, aj??

 

[mellywelly]

Have you called Jaime?

 

[jrowenj]

Have you called Jaime?

No. Dr said to call if its like a period so im gonna watch and see what happens over next few hrs.

 

[brieri1]

Well, this is certainly a day to stay close to the computer with potentially 2 babies on the way! I'm so excited for you guys!

 

[AJThomas]

No I haven't called, I'm having a homebirth so its my midwife that I would call but I'm Still just waiting. I told DH this better be labor or I'm having a c-section cuz if the contractions are so painful now I can't imagine 'real' ones!

Don't remember who said it but yeah, baby would have an awesome birth date if he does come today.
