Pregnant bodies preparing for labour are quirky things. We just had a stint for about an hour where I was having consistent 1-1.5 minute long contractions every 3-5 minutes. I kept tidying and getting things I wanted to done just in case. I knew that either way, it would work out in my favour - I would have a tidy house to come home to with my new baby OR I would be several steps closer to the state I would like my house to be in at that point. I also knew that continuing to move will encourage labour to move along.
Well, ladies and gents, false alarm. The contractions have stopped entirely. I believe I will put the wee girl down to bed and continue to putter around the house though rather than go grocery shopping alone as had been my plan. Pushing the grocery cart really bothers my hips as it is and it would be especially inconvenient to get my cart full of stuff only to have to leave it in the store and jet to the hospital :P
Ahhhh, false labour....how I have missed thee!
