Yesterday was draining, emotionally and physically. At about 1pm, Ryan drove me to Labor and Delivery just to get checked out. After 13 hours of contractions, I thought for sure this was it.
I was wrong. The good news is that Dylan did GREAT during the non stress test. The bad news is that they checked my cervix and I was still only a fingertip dialated. With that, they sent us home. At least we got a trial run for the real thing. I stopped having contractions at about 5pm and haven't had one all day today. I honestly have no idea what that was all about. Maybe my body was just trying to prepare me for the real deal.
We spent New Years playing board games and went to bed at about 12:30. I guess this is growing up?
Today, I made Ryan take me shopping so I could try to walk around and get some exercise. I'm so happy with some of the photography props that I got during the trip. I'm getting really excited to photograph my new little guy!
That is such a bummer....it won't be long! Can't wait to meet Dylan!
