Head Injury, Appointment, False Alarm.....

Sunday I was feeling quite miserable. I have had a head cold for about a week and it is finally starting to ease....yay! So, back to Sunday night. Shad laid down for a nap, he has been pretty exhausted and Brinley and I were up watching tv when I decided to defrost some chicken for dinner. My midwifes told me I could do a few little things like this. I went out into the garage and little Brin was right behind me. I asked her to hold the door for me, instead she decided to go down the stairs by herself. Needless to say she feel head first onto the concrete floor. I felt horrible. She was screaming and crying, I was crying. Shad wakes up wondering what in the world was going on. Luckily, she didn't do any real damage and just has a nice bruised goose egg to show for it.

On Monday we had another appointment. They didn't check me for fear it would put me into labor. So not much more to say other than the baby is doing fine and is head down.

Yesterday was quite eventful. Shad woke up to Brinley puking 5 times starting at 5am with the dinner the night before all over the floor. Then Shad's grandparents came down to get Grandpa's teeth finished up in Heber. So Grandma stayed with Brin and I while Shad took Grandpa up to Heber. I laid down for a nap and woke up about 4pm to contractions every 8 minutes. This went on for about an hour and a half before I called Shad to let him know what was going on. They were the pre-labor contractions so I wasn't in active labor, but I was worried if it continued than we would need to go into the hospital. After about 7 hours of pre labor it decided to stop. I woke up this morning sore and tierd. I must still have been contracting all night. We will see if this little guy stays in for a while longer or makes his grand entrance for the holidays! They aren't going to do anything to stop my labor if it happens for real so it could be anytime or weeks!
