Brandon's Puppy

Maybe today...but maybe not... (UPDATED)

I didn't sleep past 4:30 AM last night. Tossed and turned for a couple of hours, until my alarm rang and I got up to get ready for work. I dropped off Brandon at school, but instead of the usual route to work, I turned right back and came home. Eric and I will be going to the ER in a bit, I have a tightening in my pelvis that I can't quite describe as contractions, but I'd rather get checked out than go to work 25 miles away and have to drive myself back. So I'll keep y'all posted as best I can, if in fact I'm admitted and have this little one soon.

UPDATE:
Alright, so as you can imagine, if I'm sitting here at my desk, typing away, that means the baby has not arrived yet. We arrived at the hospital and filled out the necessary paperwork. I was taken to a labor and delivery room, asked to change to one of those horrendous bare-back robes, and was hooked up to the fetal monitor. Turns out yes, I am having contractions, about every 5-7 minutes. However, the midwife on-call examined me and I am still only dilated 2.5 cm, so they basically told me, in as nice a way as possible, to come back when I'm in pain.
I'm sure if we lived further they would have admitted me, but we live about 5 miles from the hospital, and my bag is already in the car, so the second I feel pain, we're on our way again, It could be later tonight, or tomorrow, or even the next day. In the meantime, I am to stay home and get some R&R, so no more work for me...YAY!

I'll be around until it's time to go to the hospital again, so see ya later!!
