The end is near........

I felt baby drop over the weekend. On several occasions, I had 2-3 hours of irregular contractions. By the end of the weekend, I could barely walk because DD was sitting so low.

I also had my nesting instinct kick-in over the weekend. I've watched clutter and dirt and mess pile up, and I've made mental notes of what I need to deal with, but I haven't had the energy to do it. Last night, I made a schedule.

And at work today, I started taking care of all the odds and ends which have no due date, but need to be done before I go out on leave. I got them all done in 2 hours.

sounds like you are going to go early.  Is that normal for you?

DS was induced a few days before his due date because of size. He's the only other one I've had! My mom usually went about 2 weeks early on all of us. I swore DS would go early but he didn't. I guess there's really no way to know until labor actually starts!

Good luck when the time comes!

You too @neonnoon!

Woohoo! Good luck!

My LO still hasn't dropped yet! But we're going into hospital tonight, so he'll be here tomorrow or Friday!  My cervix was anterior at last check though, so that's good, right?

Pretty sure mine is near also.  Spent monday evening in the hospital trying to stop my contractions.  Fun times.  We'll see in the next few days.

@topaz7777 - I had 90 minutes of BH the other night, at regular 8 minute intervals, lasting about 90 seconds each. I told DH we'd go in if they lasted 2 hours. But no........ I hope they get yours to stop though! Then again, you may be ready for LO.

My dates are a little questionable. This baby came immediately after a miscarriage. If I date by ovulation, I am due 4/3. If I date by LMP, which was technically a miscarriage, then I am due 4/7. The very first ultrasound dated me at 4/5. I am going with 4/5, but the doc is going with 4/7. The difference? I say I hit full term on Sunday, he says on Tuesday. Each of those days matters when you're at the end now! Well, they matter more to momma than baby.
