I wish that when I read online about what contractions will feel like and how to know when its really labor that they would be more consistent. Everyone has such a different experience that I really have no idea what to expect or what to look for. I know everyone says that I'll just know, but what if I don't. What if I'm that small percentage of women who don't know they are in labor until its too late??
So--I'm really not all that worried, but that's what was going through my mind today. I couldn't sleep last night so I read a bunch of stuff online last night and was probably better off not reading anything at all. oh well.
Tomorrow is the actual Due Date so we'll see if Jax decides to come on his proposed birth day. oh and another thing...if everyone is usually late with their first, why don't the doctors just give us a later due date? Why the torture of expecting our child to come earlier than later. If anything they should tell us the baby is coming a week later that way if they do come "on time", it will feel early. This is what I propose the doctors should do for 1st time pregnancies. Don't know if I explained very well, but I'm tired and I'm sure it sounds all jumbled. sorry.
Time to finish my laundry and pack my hospital bag and then hopefully I will be able to get some sleep tonight.

I agree about the due date thing. I think with my next baby, I'm just going to add a week and not tell anyone!
Yes! Pack that bag! ;)
I don't want to be a downer here but I was 10 days overdue and they induced labor with my first one. It is probably a good idea to just add a week to the due date for the first one. :) Anyway, he will be here soon and he will be worth the wait. praying for you...
I know he'll be here in God's PERFECT timing!!! Still...it's hard to be patient sometimes, hu? :) I can't wait to meet Jax. Keep everyone updated!!!
Hannah, trust me. . . YOU WILL KNOW! Love you, thinking about you these next few days.
