04.22.09 (Week 37, Day 5): False Labor

Dear Friends and Family,

I woke at 2AM with pains in the abdomen. Mr. mouse got me a glass of water and we duly timed and took notes for two hours before going back to sleep.

The contractions were coming every 5-10 minutes and lasting 30-60 seconds. But, the intensity was of a dull menstrual cramp which on a scale of 1-10, I'd rate a 1.5. In other words, they were not "true" labor pains.

We'll see what today brings. Hopefully Pioneer and the uterus both calm down and we make it to Friday for our next doctor's appointment and our official "full term" milestone.


Cheers!
mouse
