So Justin and I talked and we decided to try to get this little one to come out and meet us. We DTD last night and I've been waiting ever since. I have been having contractions about every 4-6 minutes all day. Nothing painful, they're not lasting long either, but they are a little crampy. So, I have no idea what this means. Not a clue. I don't know if they're doing anything to progress labor or if they're not. I don't feel like going into L&D to sit around for hours and possibly be sent home until I'm in pain anyways. So, here's to waiting. Just keep on waiting.
Some pictures of our little sweetie pie. :)
Isn't that incredible?!
Lailah told me today that she is scared about the baby coming and that she doesn't want him or her to come out. She wouldn't say anything else though. She wouldn't even look at me. I don't want her to be jealous of this baby and I hope that I can make all of this a good thing for her. I don't want her to hate her little brother or sister. Because of the pictures everyone is now guessing that baby is a boy - even Lailah. I think while she felt hope that she could be getting a sister then she was more excited about it but now - not so much. I feel bad and I just want this transition to go easier for her. I hope we can get through this.
Lailah was another reason we decided to try to sort of 'evict' baby. Because then she could meet little him or her and then on the night of the 27th she's going to be leaving with her dads parent to go visit her dad in NC. And I think it might give her a bit of time to sort of think about it and such and that that somehow might help her. Have a bit of personal time to herself after the baby arrives and to actually see him or her before going - that's my idea.
I still haven't heard back from Liz... also haven't sent her another text yet. I will - eventually. Maybe after I send out the gifts. I crocheted them all hats. Bennett an Elmo hat, Liz a hat with attachable clip on flowers, and Nate a hat with the Clemson tigers sign on it. I'm really excited about it and I hope that they really like them. I'd love to see their reactions when they open them.
I went and played Poker last night with my mom - she paid for me. I ended up making top 4 in which we all decided to split the cash and each walk away with $240 !! I gave my mom $20 for paying for me and then tipped the dealer $10. Today I went and bought a new REALLY nice camera ! :D I am so so so so excited to have it and to be able to take a billion pictures of this new little one who is on his or her way! :D
My mom and I have been getting along pretty well and that makes me happy. It seems we might really be starting to form a relationship and a friendship. I feel like for once in my life she's started listening to me. I hope that it only continues to progress this way. I want my mom in my life if she can be a supportive and kind person. Who wouldn't?
Scott called today to talk to Lailah. My dad posted on his Facebook wall about how his daughter misses him - I'm sure he was an ass about it too (my dad that is). So Scott seems to be making a bit more of an effort. He used to not call at all but now he calls at least 2 times a month... It's not much but hey, it's more than before. I hope that she enjoys going to visit him this week.
Well, that's all for now. :) And maybe - just maybe this baby may be on his/her way. Contractions every 5 mins or so. :) Let's hope!
