not long after i joined this group i lost my internet and we have now got it back. so i was wanting to see what all was going on and give a little pregnancy update.
yesterday i turned 37 weeks. i've been having contractions for 3 weeks. i don't know if it's early labor or false labor. i either have contractions all day and they stop at night, or i have contractions all night and they stop at the break of day. i know the closer to the due date the better. but i do wish these contractions would either stop or do something. because they are bothering me. if it wasn't for the contractions i do believe i could handle everything else (heartburn, sleepless nights, tiredness and even the aches and pains).
i am kind of suprised that this baby has held on this long. usually when i hit the 37 week mark or earlier the baby is born. so everything from here on out is so new to me. so is false labor or long early labor (which ever i may be going through right now). but all in all everything is gong good.
i am a proverbs 31, biblical, frugal living, attachment parenting, natural healing, modest sewing, God assisted, stay at home, homemaker with a large family and very old fashion views.

Welcome back!
So glad you're baby is hanging on a tad longer.
You probably just are having Braxton-Hicks, I get those for weeks as well...more work now less later so welcome those contractions.
Can't wait to hear your birth story...
