The Waiting is Driving Me... *graphic*

Waiting and waiting and waiting some more. I'm some glad the hospital sent me home because if I had been stuck in the hospital for the last two days I'd be insane by now. Mind you I can't do much now (as per doctors orders) however I did get all my laundry done and my bed sheets changed and my room vacumed so that I can come home to a clean room and not have to worry about that stuff for a while.

I am still passing discharge that looks like the mucus plug did. I've never been this far along, all my miscarriages were too early for me to experience any of this stuff so I don't know what I'm dealing with. I do know that if she continues to wait, she'll be coming tomorrow morning. I am so bloody nervous but at the same time anxious to have her, I can't wait to hold her in my arms. I'm told that because I'm already somewhat dialated, that my labour will be fast. Anyone know if thats true or not??

I'm a little worried because I've been having odd pains across the top of my uterus and everyone around me is saying that it can't be contractions because they would be lower in my pelvis. But at the same time I'm scared to depend on what these people tell me - *whispers* they don't really know what they're talking about.

Ok I'm off to have a HOT shower and try to relax - I feel like I should go jump around and see if I can get this thing moving but I also think I might regret that :) I'll try to post again later on if nothing has happened. I don't have Tam's number yet so this concerns me as I don't think I'll be sitting in a computer chair right away when this all does happen but I will want everyone to know what's happening. I have Teahound and Dan's number so I might just get someone to call her and get her to call Tam. Ok once more I'm off - my whole body hurts :)

My love to you all,
Ter

I hope you're still around- I learned my lesson from Jennah not to tell anyone what to expect from labour-- it's so different for each person--- Jennah's was fast, superfast--- all of mine were long , long, long-- I just hope you're not alone-- and if you're reading this tonight, copy down my number- 742-9498, if you can't get a hold of Tammie or her mom, call collect, we'll all be thinking and praying for you and baby girl-- Jennah has all kinds of baby girl clothes--- does anyone you know ever come to Yarmouth--- we'll work that out when everything is safe and sound-- much love
