Good morning girls! Or should I say GREAT morning?!

Despite the fact that I've been up since 2AM I am in a terrific mood!

I'm in labor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Contractions started at 2AM. They are 7-10 minutes apart and not bad at all but definetly there. Hoping they continue and that this is the real thing.

I ordered some last minute things from POttery Barn Kids that I wanted for her room. I had some gift certs/rewards to use up. Kinda tempted to go make some soup to freeze. I never got around to it yesterday.

I have a midwife appt at 11. I had planned to get some errands done before that. Is it bad that I'm kinda hoping I can work thru my contractions and still get my stuff done?! LOL!

Mike will be leaving for work soon - he won't want to go but I'm sure we have a while to go yet and I know he has a lot to do.

Well, I will keep you all updated on how things progress. Keep those vibes a'comin'! I soooo hope this isn't a false alarm!

No workout today!;):p:D
Eats will be clean til after I deliver then I'm gonna have me a some kind of wonderful cheat meal!:D
 
Kate, YOU ARE NUTS!! Don't you have a history of super-fast labors? I think you may end up at the birthing center before your 11 am midwife appt. WALK WALK WALK!!

How exciting!!
 
Hey Katie!

This one doesn't seem to be moving very fast at all. The contractions haven't gotten any worse OR closer together.

I did manage to fall asleep for almost an hour. Gonna get up and shower before I have to get Gina off to school.

PLEASE send vibes that things speed up!!!!!.....but just let me get Gina on the bus first!!!:eek:
 
Oh my gosh, Kate!!! How exciting!!!! You're all in my prayers. I'll check in later to see how things are progressing. This is SO exciting!!!!:D:p
 
I will definitely be sending you labor vibes and thinking of you thru the day today. Shirl, it's great to see you!!

WO was butts and guts wu and then standing work, adding an extra set of walking lunges and an extra set of firewalkers, both with the weighted vest.

My mommy is coming to visit tonight (NO desserts) and staying thru Saturday -- I'm excited! Dinner will be crock pot chicken, sweet potatoes, and broccoli.

Check back later!
 
Thanks so much Shirl & Katie! Not much changing so far. Ctx aren't regular but they're still there for sure.

Great WO, Katie! I'm wanting that vest too!!!

bb soon.........
 
Okay, i have to get in here!

Katie was kind enough to tell me Kate!! I'm praying for you, sending wonderful vibes to you!!! Take it easy you, dont try to get a circuit in there or anything.

Come on Julia!!!!!!!!!

Hi to everyone, i'm so sorry i've been MIA, I'm sure i'll be ready to post soon.
Steph
 
Yes we are having a baby today!!!

I can hardly wait. This is your 3rd baby so usually there is no such thing as a false alarm. I pray that you have a short and sweet delivery and a healthy and happy baby.

My w/o is KM with hand weights, one of the premixes and then shop-maxing for bedroom stuff.

Hi Steph and Katie and the rest of the clean ladies.
 
Steph, Good to see you! You've been in my thoughts so much! Hope all is as well as it can be. Thanks for the well wishes!

Robin, Love your posts, as always! Short adn sweet sounds good to me! She seems to be stalled up right now!:mad:

Off to do some errands so I likely won't be back til after lunch. I think I have Katie's cell # so I will call her so she can update everyone if for some reason I can't get back to the computer!

cya!
 
Woo Hoo! A new addition to the "Clean and Tidy" family is on the way:)

Kate, sending you lots of positive energy for a smooth and uncomplicated delivery-whenever it happens. And 3rd babies tend to come quickly-trust me, I know.

Katie, great workout. Have fun with your mom. Your crockpot dinners sound so yummy.

Robin, your workout sounds tough-way to go! And have fun shopping:)

I'm going to be doing an incline/speed treadmill workout and abs. We have a fall festival at the girls' school tonight. Guess where the PTO stuck me to volunteer? The bake sale table-grrr. I'm gonna need all the willpower I can muster to avoid any leftovers. I better be a good salesperson and get rid of everything I like:)

Can you tell I need to hit the grocery store?

Hi to all!
 
Well, we are NOT having a baby today!:mad::mad::mad: My contractions totally quit at 9AM. Bummer. We had sex last night to try to spur some ctx on and it worked, but not well enough. So we'll try again tonight! Which I am NOT looking forward to - ever tried to have sex with a beach ball bewteen you? NOT SEXY!:p

Klaudia, We had the same breakfast! I have so far avoided the PTO at Gina's school. I figure I'm doing enoug for now being on the board at Isabel's school. Good luck with the baked-goods avoidance! Have fun with your WO! I'll be doing a serious walkmax today too!
 
Kate,
That stinks! Well, Julia will come when she is good and ready; let's hope it's soon! And yes, I have tried that and not much fun! :eek:
 
Hi Everyone!

Kate, sorry no baby today. Hopefully soon.
Klaudia, I hate it when there's no food in the house.
Robin, I have never thought of doing KickMax with hand weights. I have been using my pace weights.
Katie, awesome workout. I am looking for a 20 lb weighted vest because I don't I will last long with 10lb.
Shirl & Steph, good to see you both. Hi Nat, Emily & Angie!

Well my meeting Wednesday has gotten worse so I am going to have a hard time posting unless I get up really early. I worked a very long day yesterday and now I have caught the cold that's going around work. I need to run - my blackberry won't stop buzzing.
 
Thanks for commiserating with me Ladies!:) Zero ctx all afternoon, but I'm okay with it.....I guess!:p Hopefully my cervix got a good WO and dialated a little bit. Try, try again tonight!:eek:

Colleen, You're getting slammed! that's not fair! It's prob, not possible but try to put your head down for a few minutes. (((hugs))))

I had a wonderful 2-hour nap tp make up for being awake all night. Isabel and I just made choc. zuke bread. Hey, I need SOME consolation for not going into labor. And I'll work it off tonight!!!!;)
 
More labor signs!!!

I've def. lost part of my mucus plug. I've got "bloody show". :eek:
I'm pretty crampy and uncomfortable too. yay!!!!!!!!!!
I'm totally not giving up hope that she will be born TOMORROW!!!
Wish me luck tonight...and poor Mike! Sex with a big pg lady can't be much fun for him either!

Oh! I got a cool nursing bra today from V. Secret. It's leopard with red trim!!!! VS finally got with the program!
 
KATE!!! You are having that baby SOON! :eek:

As for Mike, hey, some guys find pregnant women really sexy! And sex with a pregnant woman is better than no sex at all - I'm sure you won't get any complaints from him. Get busy, girl!

I'm kinda scared to have sex!!!!!! Do I REALLY want to have contractions?!?!?!?!?!:eek:
