39 Weeks

I don't really know what to write actually, which is why I haven't updated all day. Things are all over the map. One minute I am on the floor in child's pose breathing thru a super strong contraction and the next minute I feel totally fine and dandy. Soooo, I don't really know what to say. My contractions go from 6 or 8 minutes apart and then they go back to 15 minutes apart and then back down to 10 minutes etc... My lower back aches like there's no tomorrow, and then it stops again and all is well with the world. My midwife says we are in early labour and sometimes it just lasts a little longer for some women. So I guess we're waiting and it's not as much fun as the waiting was before I started to have such strong signs. Now we are impatient and I just want to get it over and done with. I have had a taste of what it's going to be like and I could almost see a clear path to victory and I really feel like I can do this. I feel strong again and excited and oh so ready. But the waiting, it's an emotional rollercoaster and you just don't know when the ride will end...
