Current mood: optimistic
Ever since my last check up on Monday, I have still been spotting. Though lightly.. it comes and goes. This kinda makes me happy since I don't think its soley due to the check up since it hasn't disappeared completely. It hasn't gotten as heavy as the time right after my appointment but its still there!
My cervical pain is gotten alot worse! I feel so tender there that even sitting wrong aggravates it. I actually welcome pain right now because I know it COULD be a sign of something happening.
Braxton hicks or real contractions?! Thats the is the question. Well I have been getting braxton on and off for a while now but ever since yesterday I think I am FINALLY getting some real ones, though small. I say this because with my braxton, my tummy get tight and I get alittle uncomfrotable but thats it. Now, about 10 seconds before a contraction happens, I can suddenly feel my heart rate elavate slightly, then my tummy tightens and it goes thru to my back, then the cervical pain kicks in. It lasts about 30-40 seconds and it does bring more pain than before. I have only had a few of these and they are REALLY spread out in time. (Hours worth) but hey its something right?!
We are back in San Diego again with my in-laws who are on baby watch while Adrian is at work. I don't think I will be heading home again in Riverside only because yesterday's drive out here was pure HELL! Since my Mazda6 doesn't have Adrian on the registration, he can't take it on base for work, therefore, we have to take his Subaru when we come here. If anyone knows Adrian's car, comfort is the LAST thing you'd right in its description. Its more of a performance car than comfort car. His aggressive suspension and hard seats are not preggy friendly, and the whole ride I kept getting contractions and pain. Felt like poor baby Mia's head was a basketball and my cervix was the gym floor! When we finally got to my in-law the pain was MUCH better. I only got 1 big contraction late at night but that was about it. I got another baby one this morning but nothing as big as yesterday. So I don't think I want to get in that car for long drives again till this little one is out!
Thats about it. Some slight progress but nothing HUGE! I welcome any progess at this point so I am alittle happy. (Ask me that again when I go into full labor... I'll probably punch you in the nose! haha jk)
Well I will write more when I can... hmmmm... maybe everyone is right... maybe she will be a 4th of July baby?!?!
