On the way to church today I had a couple of big, strong contractions. They hurt. I almost had to pull the car over.
Now if this were my first pregnancy I would have freaked out a bit, called Lance, (who was already in meetings at church) and gotten really worked up and excited at the prospect of finally going into labor. (!)
But this is my third pregnancy and a whole different ball game. I found myself silently telling my body "No way! The baby CANNOT come today. I am teaching Sharing Time, my first counselor is home with a sick kid, and my 2nd counselor is teaching the Sunbeams. I refuse to go into labor now. KNOCK IT OFF!"
And for once my body listened.
*****Don't forget to guess my baby's birth weight and win fame and fortune. Someone already take your guess? Just guess half and ounce higher or lower! Go here to enter!*****
