I had an OB check today and I told my doctor all about my contractions the night before and how I was debating on whether or not i should have went L&D. Honestly I just didn't want to have to disrupt the whole household at 1am if it was false labor. He said, contractions at this point are normal.. but do not mean that labor is/isn't too far off. He says it would be a very good idea to have my hospital bag packed and ready just in case, because at this stage in the game they wont be stopping any labor! If baby H does end up making his arrival in the next week or 2, he may have to stay in the hospital a few extra days under the lights and to "fatten" up a bit but that he should be fine and wouldn't need to be transferred to a bigger hospital. I guess this is my wake up call to hussle up and get ready for him! I'm sooo excited, but really nervous too. I thought I had at least 2 more weeks! There is nothing worse than having contractions in the middle of the night and saying to yourself.. No! You can't come! I haven't washed your clothes yet and you'll have nothing to wear!!!
