May 18 - One Fully Cooked Baby

Come out come out wherever you are!!! I was sure we were going to have the baby yesterday. Around 11 p.m. on Wednesday I started getting contractions about 20 minutes apart and they lasted pretty much all night. When I got up for good (up and down all night - now? now?) they seemd to stop altogether with not much happening the rest of the day or night. There seems to be an overall hardening which is making me feel less "big" but that's about it. If nothing happens by Monday (when she is safely a Gemini) I am going to get creative with some tips for induction. Annie's was Castor Oil. Calling all people for suggestions....
