the essence

No news yet

I called my midwife, Bea, who just got back into town Saturday night & she was already attending a birth at the birth center! So, depending on how timing goes over there & with me I may end up going into the birth center to have the baby. Not my first choice but it'd be okay!

I'm still not having consistent contractions; I'm having contractions, but mostly I'm trying to rest. Ray has been sleeping & I've been dozing off & on, waking up when I do have contractions. They can range anywhere from about 45 seconds to a minute & a half & they were averaging around 5 minutes apart for awhile.

Anyway, it's after 5am & I'm hungry (well, I waver between hungry & nauseous) so I'm making use of some of those meals I made the other day & the muffins I froze a couple of weeks ago!

At this rate I'm thinking we'll call my mother-in-law when the girls wake-up so she can take them. Once night is over if my contractions are still inconsistent I'll probably start doing some things to get them to pick-up. For now, rest!
