I was sure last night that things were gonna get heated up in the night and today we'd be heading to the hospital. I've been having more intense Braxton Hicks contractions since Thursday night. Last night we even timed them and discovered that there was a pattern of every 7 minutes. I'm still saying they were Braxton Hicks, though, 'cause they're not painful just uncomfortable. Alas. I'm still feeling them but they don't seem to be getting any stronger or more intense.
R and the doggies and I have been on a walk this morning and I've done another round of accupressure. There's a place on the inside of the ankle that can be pressed to start contractions or to strengthen them. It's called the Spleen 6. I think it does have an effect but not enough of an effect to actually get things going. Thankfully I slept well last night and it's the weekend so R is here with me and we can get out and enjoy each other's company. And it's a beautiful day!!!
Still hoping today could be the day things get started..... Gotta keep hoping!!!
By the way, we mentioned to our doctor about the nurse who was coughing like crazy the night we went in for monitoring. I was saddened and quite humbled to learn that she has lung cancer and is trying to keep working as long as she's able. Wow. So if you think of it...pray for Debra!
