So...last Friday for about 3 1/2 hours I had false labor...contractions every 3-5 minutes the whole time, but they weren't strong or terribly painful, which was confusing. So, I called the doctor and he said to take 2 tylenol and try to go to sleep. So, I did, and contractions stopped and have just been normal since then.
Then today, at our appointment, the doctor said her head was down where it needs to be, but there was no progress from last week as far as dilation and all that. So....we wait...and wait.

Don't stress about it. Believe me, you're lucky it's just going to spring up on you. The pressure of having a planned C-section almost outweighed the benefit of knowing precisely when she would be born. It makes you stress about being a parent and if you're ready for it or not, etc, etc. At least for you it'll just *BAM* happen and then being parents will slowly sink in. No worries until then!
That's funny you say that because the other day I was thinking how nice it would be to know exactly when she is coming so you can properly prepare for it mentally, emotionally, physically. And the waiting game is like, I have to be careful how long I'm out doing things and don't want to be far from Kyle ever just in case it happens...all that. But, I guess we will see...
