Anyone else up on this fine Monday morning?
I'm hanging out here, trying to sleep, but it is not happening. I have a headache that will not quit, and these contractions are making me insane. Tylenol hasn't touched either, so I'm off to shower in the hopes that they either stop or do something already.
Anyone else?

I'm in Australia so its only 6pm, but I am awake! I hope your contractions either let up, or lead to something!! How close are you to your due date?

@ScarletBegonia: that's a good reason to be awake, then 
And thanks! I'm 37+5 and have been in false labor all week. It actually has felt different tonight, but I'm probably crazy. I just really would like to be able to sleep!
ETA: I never answered your question-I'm due April 9

@LovelyPlum: ok. I'm tired and uncomfortable, but not in serious pain. Ready to feel normal again! Hope the shower helps you to feel better.

@Happygal: thanks I'm glad that you're not in too much pain. I hope that you're back on your feet very soon, and that the lap only brings good things

ME! DS woke up about 45 minutes ago. After I nursed him he went back to sleep, but I am wide awake. It's 4:10am here and I have to go to work in a few hours 
@lovelyplum: sorry you're so uncomfortable right now. Hang in there - not long now until you get to meet your LO!

@LovelyPlum: That sounds brutal. I hope it eases up for you soon (or you have your baby!).
It's 8am here so I'm awake. I went to bed at 8.30pm last night (I've been so tired lately) then DH woke me up coming in from work at 11pm. He then started making himself some food and I drifted back off, only be be woken up by him snort-sniffing downstairs (he has a cold and he does these big, hideous, LOUD sniffs). 11.20pm. Then he woke me up again at midnight, coming to bed. Then the baby was up at 6.20am. Ugh. I'm still so tired!

Me. Keep waking up and stomach is not feeling good. It's still burning and messed up from the Glucola drink on Friday.
@LovelyPlum: I'm hoping those contractions become productive for you really soon!

I'm up. Dd just cried/talked/whimpered in her sleep but now I'm up. Alarm goes off in an hour anyways and I went to bed at 9 last night w a headache and stomach ache.
@bluestriped bee: loved your new pics!
@LovelyPlum: feel better!

@LovelyPlum: I hope you're feeling better and maybe getting some rest.
It's 5:10 am here and the ante partum ward is very quiet. I think everyone else. (Including most of the nurses) got sent home yesterday. I'm too nervous to sleep since sometime today I'll find out if I'm discharged or if I'm in the hospital for the long haul. Just got my morning dose of procardia so at least I'm not feeling any contractions at the moment!

Me. DS is cluster feeding tonight so I've spent more time out of bed than in it. His longer stretch of sleep usually happens starting around 6am so hopefully it happens tonight. It's our first night without my mom (he was born last Monday) so of course he's awake every hour!
I hope your headache goes away. It's no fun while tired and pregnant!

@SugarplumsMom: @Katrocap: @Cherrybee: @lamariniere: @spaniellove: @T.H.O.U.: @twodoghouse: @debbiei8: thanks ladies A hot shower and some more Tylenol finally let me sleep around 5:00, so I got about 2 and a half good hours...yay?? Today is going to be a very long day, but I'm off to the doctor's in an hour to hopefully get some answers. I had a total breakdown this morning-this false labor is just really rough. But I feel better after a good cry. Hoping things happen soon!
@Cherrybee: ugh. I hope that your day goes quickly so you can get some rest tonight.
@spaniellove: @T.H.O.U.: feel better, ladies!
@sandy: productive-I'm impressed
@twodoghouse: thinking of you, pretty lady. I hope you get only the best news today. How are you holding up?
@debbiei8: congratulations! I hope that you made it through your first night without your mom.

@LovelyPlum: Good luck at your appointment! I'm waiting for the phone call about the GD test. Please let me have passed! I never want to drink that stuff again!

@T.H.O.U.: @LovelyPlum: @spaniellove: I'm going home! My cervix lengthened a little and babies looked great (est over 4 lb each) so I'm being released on strict home bed rest!
@spaniellove: hope you get good GD news today!

@twodoghouse: Boo for any bed rest but YEAHHHHH for babies looking good and going home!!!
(I'm eating an ice cream bar as I wait, so...uh...)

@twodoghouse: Yea for going home! As much as bed rest must suck its good that at least you get to do it from your own home without people bothering you!

A little late, but updating - I passed! Another ice cream bar to celebrate!
