I hate playing the labor guessing game...

Since LO's movements have really slowed down over the past few days, the BH are stronger and I can no longer tell if the crampy sensations I'm having are merely baby scraping against my sensitive cervix or possible labor contractions. 

I need to have an attitude change quick or this could be a truly miserable next 0-5 weeks.  As if I'm not uncomfortable enough, an axious attitude is NOT going to help!

Re: I hate playing the labor guessing game...

  • I agree it is all about attitude!

    I keep telling myself that the longer DS#2 cooks, the longer I have to hang out with DS#1!! And once #2 comes, it'll be a whole new world and life will never again be simple.

    It keeps me in check when I start getting anxious!!!

  • Sorry to hear that :(

    I still have a crazy active baby and no real signs of labor, so it's not a guessing game for me yet. I imagine it'll be frustrating once that starts up.

  • I'm 38 weeks tomorrow and feel the same way... I'm trying to be positive and schedule fun (but not essential!) meetings. We're having the house deep-cleaned on Friday and I'm getting a pedicure with my sister-in-law. Whenever I wish the contractions would get stronger or baby will get here faster, I think about getting a pedicure and waiting a few more days. :-) It's stressful to live life like this, but in the grand scheme of things, it'll be over before we know it!
