I was busy today. I cleaned our bathroom, did the dishes, and made the beds. J and I also ran quite a few errands. When we were at our last store, I started experiencing consistent contractions that were just a few minutes apart. We came home and I laid down for awhile to see if they would subside. They kept up for about two hours afterward, sometimes lasting about a minute and getting as close as three minutes apart, but then they'd be eleven minutes apart and wouldn't last as long. So they weren't regular, and I realized it was false labor, as after awhile, they did basically stop. I've had a couple of contractions each hour for the last several hours, but again they're not regular and aren't increasing in frequency or duration. So something could be starting up, but then again, who knows when actual labor will start. I just hope I can sleep tonight if the contractions aren't leading to actual labor and delivery. If I know anything after 37 and a half weeks of pregnancy this time around, it's that I have no idea when this baby will be here, I'll keep you posted.
This may mean something will happen soon. But then again, you're right that you really have no idea exactly when.
