Okay! So I’m back! Back from the hospital, and then from an aweful lot of running around.
Here’s the scoop. My water’s have broken. YAAAAAHHHHHH! But nothing’s happening, yet! BOOOOOOO!
I got up and took a shower this morning, and when I got out and got dressed, and started wandering around the house, I noticed that things seemed a bit damper than what was normal.
It kept happening, and I wondered if my water’s might have broken, BUT never having had my water’s break before until almost the very end…..this has been a very strange experience.
I did go for the non-stress test, and cried my way through that. The sound was turned off at the beginning of the test, and I couldn’t hear the baby’s heartbeat. It wasn’t until I asked the nurse if the baby was still alive that I started to cry and couldn’t stop.
She was very nice and reassuring. They also did some test where they put some fluid onto a piece of paper, and if it reacts, then it is amniotic fluid…..Well, there was enough fluid for the nurse the believe me that, YES! My Water’s have broken.
STILL NOTHING HAPPENING, but if nothing happens overnight, then I have to be at the hospital at 7:30am tomorrow to get this show on the road.
My momma is coming out right now to just be here. I need her this time around. Not necessarily in the hospital, but here and now.
We’ve done our running around, and now we’re (Jon’s) making dinner – such a good man. and then to waste the evening……so much fun.
I wonder if I’ll be able to sleep tonight or if something will start to happen. This is kind of a messy experience…..one that I’m not particularly upset that I’ve never experienced before……I’m quite happy that things are moving, but could have done without the feeling of peeing myself everytine I move. That’s a good time let me tell you.
I’ll keep you updated.
YEAAAAAAAAAH! Anytime now! I’m so happy for you. All the best and may it be wonderful. I’ll be praying for just that tonight!Yipee!
K, can I change my date guess?? 🙂 GO BABY GO!!! My kids used to lay hands on my belly and yell, “In the name of Jesus — COME OUT!” 🙂
