I skipped the social part of the evening last night, and ended up meeting everyone at the movie theatre. I was nervous the whole time thinking my water was going to break. But, alas nothing happened and the movie was enjoyable. I didn't get home until after 1am and Elliott wakes at 5:30am so I am tired.
The hubby and Elliott are at Sea World for some last minute one on one time. I was glad to have them leave the house, but envious that I couldn't join them. So, here I am -- home alone for what will likely be the last time for a while. And all I can think to do is walk around the house in circles moving things from one place to another.
I hate the waiting game. More bloody show this morning, more digestive track clearing, more pelvic pressure and BH, But, no contractions and no amniotic fluid. I am stuck between wanting to just carry on with my life and go grocery shopping and the like. Or just sit on the couch with my heating pad and do as little as possible. I don’t want my water to break while I am shopping or at the park with the kiddo…that would be super embarrassing….but I feel unproductive not doing anything. And then inversely I am tired, and I know what lies ahead as far as work and sleeplessness so I think I should rest…but resting isn't helping the labor come on any faster. It’s a vicious mental cycle. ARRRGGHHH.
What did you do? What would you do?
