Still here, Had to find somthing to do around the house, contractions feel better when im doing somthing !!!! So I went and did dishes. Then I went to the bathroom and there was bloody mucas (heard this is a good sign)

Oh wow, I missed a lot today! If you happen to still be home, laboring on your hands and knees is great for back labor. Laboring in the tub could be a tremendous help too (I had a water birth with my first, and it made such a huge difference!). If you have any tennis balls at home, have your DH rub your back with them-this is supposed to be fantastic for back labor!

i don't want to be discouraging, but if you're still able to do stuff between contractions, you may have a while to go (i say may; i have ridiculously quick labors, so with ds2, i was blow drying my hair btwn ctx, then pushing him out about 45 minutes later, lol). please get some sleep, if you can. you are soooo going to need it when labor gets harder.

i'm cheering for you and aiden over here!

Some contractions are 5 min, some are 7 some, are 10

Yes, it shouldn't be too long now!!!

Try to get some sleep!! I know that this sounds really strange!!! But you are going to have a REAL workout before you see your baby boy!!!

So, take a warm shower, have your DH give you a back rub, rub your feet, or whatever makes you relax and take a nap!!!

The MORE relaxed you are, the easier the labor!!!

Happy Pushing!!!
