December!

So December came and with the due date quickly approaching the contractions decided to start early and make the last 2 weeks of pregnancy pretty hard. We had to go to the hospital when I was 29 weeks because I was having steady contractions and was given meds to make them go away, so based on that no one really thought I would make it all the way to December 20th. We went back to the hospital on December 10th because I was having contractions, I called the doctor to see if we should go - and instead of asking me questions and asking the doctor - the nurse on the phone just told us to go just to make sure. Kevin and I didn't feel like it was time yet but we went, spent several hours there and ended up being sent home because I was having very consistent contractions but they were not progressing.
So for the next week I was not sleeping well because of contractions and regular pregnancy woes, and every day the contractions would start pretty early in the day and get worse and worse as the day went on. There was one other night that we were about to walk out the door to go to the hospital but I decided to wait for one more bad contraction - which never came, so I'm glad we avoided being sent home again that night :)
