So I’m in labor. It started at 5:30 this morning with slightly painful contractions, but nothing to take my breath away. It progressed very slowly, but nothing I did would change it–relaxing in my recliner, making my son breakfast, taking a warm bath, starting the laundry… They just kept coming. As of the last half hour or more, they are at least 5 minutes apart. I will be live blogging on my Life of a Happy Mom page on Facebook (just search for it–I can’t get the link right now) as well as my personal page. Midwife is on her way.
