Baby baby
So, pretty much my life right now is doing nothing all the time whilst waiting for the baby to come. We had an interesting week, however. Sunday, I had 3-5 min apart contractions for 10 hours, so they said to come in to the hospital to be checked. I go in, and no dilation. They had me stay the night, gave me a drug to sleep (holy cow it was powerful), and the next morning checked me out to see if I dilated more, but to no avail. So, since Sunday I have had fairly regular contractions, but they aren't strong enough to be real labor. They said I am in pregenital labor, whatever that means. We had an appointment yesterday and the doctor said that I was exactly the same, 1 cm dilated and 70% effaced, like i was 2 weeks ago, and that I was on track to go past my due date. So...I am just trying to rest and relax all the time, and Kyle works nights mostly, so we hang out during the days, and hopefully sometime in the next week or so there will be a new baby in the house. That's the latest.

Dumb waiting game
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.

Look guys, we finally did it!
Hey everyone,
So, we finally decided to create our own blog, because it's true, you don't really update people on your life when you are on myspace. We are still trying to figure out this site and how to put up pics and things like that, but at least it's a start.
Here is the latest with us....we moved to San Antonio the beginning of May, so that we could save money this summer, pay less bills, things like that. Mom has breast cancer and she will be going through chemo all summer, but considering the circumstances, she is doing really well and handling it better than I ever could.
Kyle started working at Red Robin last week down here in San Antonio. So far, it hasn't been as busy as it was in Provo, but hopefully it will pick up and tips will get better. Besides that he has kept busy writing songs on the guitar and reading Harry Potter books to me and the baby.
As far as the baby goes, we had an appointment today, I am 37 weeks, and they said I am 70% effaced and about a fingertip dilated. They think she's about 6 pounds right now. So, we are just waiting until she is ready to come!
So, there it is. Be looking forward to more from the almost Payne padres.
