Most of you are already aware of the false alarm on Wednesday night. For those that don't know, N went to the hospital with contractions about 5 minutes apart. She was there for nearly 4 hours, the contractions never ceasing, but because her cervix wasn't changing, they sent her home. She was mad. I mean, seriously, ticked off! She wants this baby out.
N has asked me on a few different occasions if I have any suggestions to help her go into labor. I don't know of anything unique. She has researched the
internet time and time again. She is seriously considering Castor Oil, but I have serious doubts about that and have expressed that to her. I don't want her to have the nasty side effects that come along with that. She has tried sit ups. She has decided walking isn't that bad. She is searching for THE ANSWER that causes her to go into labor. She wants the pregnancy over.
In the meantime, we have been busy around here. We have Lil Bug moved to her new big girl room. It isn't finished, but it is livable. Lil Princess' room is livable too. I will continue to do odds and ends in each room to get them just perfect for their perfect
tenants, but until then, they will suffice.
Lil Bug has kept me busy. She has been in a great mood lately. That is a nice change because she was going through a cranky stage where she whined nonstop for a while. That got old fast!
I have the normal day-to-day things to do...clean, laundry, vacuum, grocery shop, lunch dates, play dates, and the list goes on and on. Those things seem to keep my mind engaged.
Honestly, I don't feel like I think about Lil Princess or N all the time. I feel like I am handling things pretty well. I don't feel stressed...
Or do I? I can't sit still, for sure. I can't even sit down long enough to have a conversation via
IM with my dearest friends or even talk on the phone. I just can't. I want to though. If I sit, I get antsy. But, I don't know what to do. I walk around wondering what should be done next, but can't seem to actually accomplish it. When people ask how I am doing, I answer "fine" and I truly believe it when I say it, but when I reflect on my behavior, I'm not so sure.
I am not sure what this behavior is called, but I am really starting to annoy myself. I hope I can get a grip soon.
