Re: Symptoms & Questions week of 8/27
"I had a dream night before last that I started having painful contractions and went into labor. Pretty sure I woke up and was having some more painful than usual contractions. But after emptying my bladder, they would stop if I changed position but start back up if I changed back. All kind of blurry, but has me feeling like it really could happen at any point now.
I've also had some diarrhea the past several days and a sudden uptick in energy. The extra energy is great, but I don't have a lot of nesting left to do so it's translating into me shopping for non-essentials. Woops, sorry DH!"
DH keeps saying “today would be a good day to have a baby!” And I totally agree, I’m ready...I think! Ha!
In all serious though, i AM ready, but until he does come, I’m going to try and soak up my girls as much as possible. I think my older one and I will go get our nails done tomorrow, she definitely needs some mama-only time. My little one knows something is coming because she’s been extra clingy - she even woke up twice last night and just wanted to be held, and she never wakes up at night!
One week left. Even the third time, it’s totally surreal!

The only "nesting" thing I notice in myself is a desire to stockpile food (freezer meals, snacks for DS, etc.)--I am seriously considering another Trader Joe's run now.
I mean, I want to clean but get tired after standing a little while. The only thing I have a desire to really clean is sanitizing my pump parts and DD1's old toys to get them ready for baby#2.
