So Sunday night and looking for signs... but there seems to be a distinct lack of them.
Friday evening I had false labour/labor (depending where on the globe you are) from 9pm-Midnight where I was getting painless contractions every 3-5 minutes. As they were painless I headed to bed. Woke up at quarter to 3am and there were still a few but they died down by half 3 and that was that, there hasnt been anymore.
The whole weekend has been about operation get baby moving. This meant a 4 mile walk around Mission Bay on Saturday, a few hours round San Diego zoo going up and down the hills on Sunday and around 5 hours of ball bouncing. I think I should clarify that I mean bouncing on my exercise ball chanting "Down Baby Down". Still no progress.
Actually, the truth is that she moves down slightly then the minute I stop she moves back up. Obviously very comfortable indeed. So 10 minutes break to write briefly... then back to the ball for an hour and a half before bed.
Ob/gyn appointment tomorrow at 8.10am. Let's see how things are progressing (or not as the case may be).
Oh and the look on people's faces when you tell them you are due tomorrow is priceless. I think people thinks pregnant ladies are delicate and liable to pop at any time. I admit that prior to being pregnant I really didnt think I would be going anywhere past 7 months. Yer right, me, sit in for 2 months? You must be joking!
