Countdown to baby girl

Well today I survived. I have 4 1/2 weeks to go. I am hoping for atleast another week.
I take it day by day. I went to the store with Emilee today and that was enough to put me to bed early tonight. I'm exhausted. I hope I can sleep good tonight. This morning I woke at 2am again with more false labor pains. Eventually I went back to sleep. Sean thankfully let me sleep in. And I even had a nap today! WhooHooo!!! On top of trying not to go in to labor I have some kind of head cold going on. Thank goodness for tylenol cold, kleenex, and halls.
I'm just taking it one day at a time.
I am so excited to have my baby girl come soon. I just hope she waits a little bit longer. I just want her to be healthy. I can't wait until family comes. I will enjoy and appreciate the extra help!

hospital trip

So I thought I was going into labor this morning. I couldn't tell how far apart the contractions were. So I put in a load of laundry, took a shower, double checked my hospital bag, and called my doctor. Yes laundry. I couldn't sleep so why not.
My doctor said go to the hospital. ( I'm 35 weeks, 5 to go).
The nurse hooked me up to a monitoring device. Yes I was having contractions. I find out that I am also a little dehydrated. So I had to down two jugs of water take a sleeping pill and I got to come home. False alarm.
Wow. So now I am wondering when I am going to go into labor again. I still feel some of the contractions but lil' Angelina Michelle isn't ready yet. That's okay with me. I just hope I can sleep tonight.
Thanks to everyone that helped out today!
Kudos to Ami for coming to my rescue!
