My Water Broke

05:15 pst

AND my mucous plug came out...

AND I have bloody show...

I felt the trickle as I was asleep and immediately clenched my legs to keep it in. Then I waddled down the hallway, dripping the entire way.

LB might be a March baby. Or an April Fools boy. He he. This is all because we went and actually bought the ingredients for the cake we were going to bake in early labor.

The nurse wants us to go in and get checked. M. and I are trying to decide if we're going to go in right away or wait for a bit.

UPDATE 06:26 pst: We're going in. I'm feeling contractions but they a) don't feel regular and b) don't hurt much. I want to get being checked over with so we can come home. Still trickling. We'll update when we return.

YAY!!!!!!!

If you are feeling ok and there is no more blood, I guess I'd suggest getting some rest.

If there is more blood or you feel at all like you should be checked, I guess I'd go in.

I suppose it all doesn't matter now, though, because you posted 3 hours ago.

Take care!

I have been following your blog for only a short while. I am not a big commenter at all...

but I just have to say how excited I am for you and your partner!

You both must feel such a relief to not have to go down the scary road of induction.

Good luck with everything!
