I woke up this morning with back ache and some cramps. It felt exactly like how my labor with Grey started. As you can see from my ticker, I am SO not ready for labor!
I hydrated and took a shower and just relaxed. The cramps have come and gone all day but not in any pattern and they don't even really feel like contractions. I've tried to remain in a sort of calmed/meditative state all day...I just feel off. Impatient, sore, crampy. Is this what Prodromal Labor is like? Would it/could it happen this early?
The weirdest part is, even if I haven't had any cramping for a couple hours, if Grey starts to cry I start to cramp almost instantly. Biology is so strange.
I'm just hoping the next 2 months aren't like today. It's not that i'm in pain it's just a bit taxing, emotionally. Trying to pay attention to your body, making sure you aren't cramping too much or in a regular pattern, while remaining calm and also engaging a 3 year old...All the while thinking, "it's too early, it's too early. just stay put baby."
Of course, now that I am worrying about her being too early, she'll probably come late
Re: :( Feeling off all day
Ooooh you could be right. Damn that moon!

I agree! Damn moon is really not my friend!
Hugs thats so hard.That was the only thing in pregnancy that I didnt like...that unknown trying so hard to hone in on what I am feeling...not freak out and keep JLK happy.
The crying thing is actually pretty amazing. That didnt happen to me.
And I am a believer in it never hurts to go in adn get checked out...the peace of mind alone is sooooo worth the "wasted time"

I hope you're feeling better soon. That is pretty amazing about the relation to crying! I know I experience a greater production of milk when DS cries.
I've been stuck on this How Things Work website for the past 30 minutes since I googled the moon and pregnancy... lots of interesting stuff there. The original article I found is here.
Thanks! Interesting article! I mentioned the moon to DH and he said it was a bunch of BS My SIL on the otherhand would completely agree

I'm on the moon bandwagon. I had the same thing around that time...without the crying toddler.
I hope you feel better!
