As pathetic as I probably sound, I'm so jealous of you! I can't wait until things start happening to me.

If this is the real thing though, try to fall asleep so you would be stronger during labor.

I"m sorry you can't sleep.  But YAY for contractions!!  I agree, maybe you should try to get some sleep, my nurse said pain feels worse when you are tired, so the best thing you can do is get a good night's sleep.

Could you try a hot shower?  That always seems to help me.  It relaxes me enought to get some rest, and if it is real labor, it may help your body relax to speed up your contrax.

Had a PB and J about an hour ago and then sat in the tub for quite a bit... helped a little.. but still keeping me from falling asleep... I thought though when it was true labor, that you felt it in your back too.. this is all crampy in the front...*sigh* I have baby's bag ready, but not mine...lol.. so now its like do I try to go to sleep or do I pack my bag.. haha... thanks for the enouragement girls!
