Counting Contractions

Why does it seem that Saturday nights seem to have so much drama these past few weeks? Well true to form this one was no difference.

So it is a little before 10pm and we were settling down for bed, when all of a sudden Joanna goes quite and makes this "uncomfortable" face, that was just the start. For the next two hours we are counting these contractions. Now they range from 8 min to 11 min to 5 min apart. So for the first time it really sunk in, this could be it. So during these two hours what do you do? I mean who wants to sit in bed for two hours wondering when the next one will hit, or waiting for a pattern to form. So I did what any good husband did, I found us a movie to watch. So what was the movie of choice you ask?? Deuce Bigalow, Male Gigolo. Ok so it did not win any awards but it served its purpose.

After midnight we gathered that the contractions were not the real show so we went to bed. Sunday turned out to be a little more of the same, about four contractions every hour or so, but again no rhyme or reason. We will see what this week holds but it appears that we are on the way and Ruth will be here sooner than we think.
