early first stage

[loveandliberty]

I believe this is called early first stage labor. I woke up with contractions - my entire stomach hardening and tightening with each squeeze. And then I was famished. And then I had diarrhea. I'm going to try to go back to sleep now, see if I can get some snoozing action done. Because if this isn't early first stage, I'll have to be at work in

i know it doesn't make any sense, but i'm incredibly nervous. not worried, just really want to meet your son, and for some reason i have it in my head that he will hate me.

he won't hate you. you still have time though.

It was preterm labor, but they were able to stop it. It hadn't progressed far enough that they couldn't. So now I'm on bedrest and medication in case contractions start again.

So, I've been thinking about this. I have endo so my menstrual cramps get bad enough for me to vomit, be unable to walk and other wonderful things. So if it's like that, I dunno how it could get more intense. LOL

darling, i mailed the blanket to you on monday from bluffton. so you should get it soon. it turned out pretty well, if i do say so myself. perhaps a bit less square than a professional blanket, but made with more love than the prettiest blanket in any store. i love you so much, joanna. you have very much been in my thoughts lately. i am sending good thoughts your way and hoping things are going well.

i love you!
