Today I was encouraged a little when I started to get some good contractions. I mean really good. Like, huffing and puffing and holding on tight to the counters kind of contractions. They were every 2-3 minutes and getting stronger and stronger for almost an hour, and then...poof! Gone again. Oh well :)
We went to the birth center this afternoon where I got my blood drawn, antibiotics refilled, and an NST (where you watch the baby's heartrate on the monitor) and everything looked great. The baby was beautifully reactive on the monitor, and everyone was full of well wishes at the birth center. Jess, one of the midwives, was very encouraging, telling me to be patient. Everyone's been full of stories of women who's water was broken for days and days before they went on to deliver normally. It's a very positive envionment.
So, I'm sitting here with my antibiotic hanging from a nail on the wall, and as soon as it's finished we're heading to Home Depot for more stuff to finish the bathroom. It's coming along nicely, by the way :) Maybe I'll post some pictures tonight. Stay tuned...
