False Alarm!

Update: If didn't read the post yet, yesterday Vania was in labour all day long. She was also throwing up along with having other movements, anyway, that along with contractions is a sure sign that the baby is coming, most of the time. Today Vania feels much better and no contractions and no baby coming. So, the best we can figure it out, she got some kind of bug. The throwing up etc, led to the contractions, but that's as far as it went. Like I said, she feels much better today. Anyway, disappointing. It'll come when it's ready though.

Vania's been saying like she's feeling like it's going to be different with this kid. Well, so far this is proving to be true. We started the day with the onset of labour. And went through the whole affair until about 6PM and then, it all just stopped. No more contractions, just stopped.

Now, false labour is not unheard of, however, it's never happened to us. So doing that for a whole day kind of brings you to a place of expectancy, and when it just stops, it leaves you, well, not knowing what to do, say, think...it leaves you wondering if baby's ok?

Anyway, baby seems to be ok, although a lot less active, but if I'd gone through what he went through today, I probably would be inactive as well. And so, now, we wait. Vania's trying to keep herself busy cleaning this and that...

It could be that we might still make it to the hospital tonight, but who knows. Okay, God does.

"we" went thru 2 weeks of false (but not so) labour ... and yes it does bring on that sense of expectancy ... it is indeed all part of that fantastic journey!
