So tomorrow I will be 37 weeks....which means Ty will be a full-term baby! I honestly can't believe we are so close. It could literally be any day now!
We had a little scare Sunday night...I started having contrations ever 5-10 minutes which lasted more than 2 hours! I was convinced they were just Braxton Hicks, but Brent finally made me call the doctor. The on call doctor called back and said there was really no need to worry until they were very consistent (EXACTLY 5 minutes apart) and told me to lay down and take it easy the rest of the night. So I did, and they eventually went away. He did say that I am probably dialating some, since they were coming so frequently! It was really funny looking back. Brent was in panic mode. I insisted on taking a shower before calling the doc, when I got out he had both of our suitcases out throwing stuff in them! So if nothing else, this little epsiode has convinced us to be prepared. We are both semi packed and I have a list on the fridge to check before we leave. I'm going this afternoon to pick up some last minute items. This weekend I am going to make one more Target/ Babies R Us run and then we should be set! It looks like Ty has already arrived at home. His swing, bouncer and playmat are in the den, his pack and play is up next to our bed, and his car seat is installed (after lots of difficulty!) in the Jetta. (We WILL be purchasing a BIGGER car soon!)
My next appointment is tomorrow morning and I am very excited/ nervous! Dr. Stone will finally check to see if I have made any progress. I am hoping I have!!
I'll update after my appointment!
