Pregnant after a Loss

I think I may be going into labor today *updated*

Lots of intense cramping and it's getting worse intensity-wise, but they aren't coming every five minutes yet. I've been having these types of cramping with my contractions since 10:00 last night. It figures that for the first time in 4 weeks and 4 days, I am NOT getting regular contractions five minutes apart. Ugh, I wish I knew one way or another.

Also, is it stupid that if I am going into labor today, that I'm slightly bummed that I won't be having my December baby?

**Update** I think this is really it. They are coming close to five minutes apart. I think DH and I are going to take a walk for a while and then call my midwife. I will be sending updates to emd2887!

Also, my totally selfish reason for wanting a December baby was because the birthstone goes with both my DH's and mine. Embarrassed DH told me that yellow and purple is a good mix though, like the Chargers team! I'm not upset though, because 1 - the flower for November is pretty awesome, and I had been thinking of doing a family tattoo with all of our birth flowers, and 2 - I'M GOING TO BE HAVING A BABY! Big Smile

Thanks for all the labor dust!

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place.
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace.
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste,
It all revolves around you.
