The only thing I have to say is…….

Sciatica is evil.

And so are Braxton Hicks that hurt.

But wait, those aren’t Braxton Hicks then are they???????

19 weeks 1 day and other stories…….

Happy 4th of July!!!!

Had the scare of the century last night.  I knew, JUST KNEW I was in preterm labor.  My back was hurting, my stomach was cramping(coming and going like labor) and I couldn’t sleep.  For one moment, everything about labor and delivery that I KNOW for a fact went out of my head, and I was just a scared Mommy thinking:

 Not again. Please Lord, not again.

But then, common sense took over:

It was 99 degrees here in Alabama(I’m visiting my Momma) and I had had, count ‘em,

1 glass of water.

All day long.

(Yes, slap me please.  Just. Slap.Me.)

So!

I got up and drank 32 oz of water in one sitting.  Needless to say, the cramping went away, and I spent the rest of the night peeing every 15 minutes. 

So, the moral of the story:

Rose’s Daughter will lug around a large gallon of water today and will drink on it all day long.

Sheesh.  I’m supposed to know better!
