false alarm
Ashley had a couple of hours of contractions last night. They were irregular, so we didn’t feel the need to rush off to the hospital ~ although if it were up to Ashley and Jacob (oh, alright, I confess, me too) she would have Attison today. We’re just a bit tired of waiting for Miss Atti to make her appearance, but obviously she’s not quite ready yet, so we’ll keep waiting.
Ashley’s visiting the OB once a week now. Last week he commented on her lack of stretch marks. She has been doing a remarkable job with the stretch mark cream ~ lots and lots of cocoa butter. She has gained about 35 pounds so far. But that’s actually GOOD ~ the doc told her to keep eating, pretty much whatever she wants and as much as she wants. When you start out at 89 pounds, I guess you’re allowed to gain more weight! She will probably have lost the majority of her pregnancy weight a month after Attison is (finally) born. Her metabolism is that fast ~ lucky little stinker.
Ashley was finally able to go to bed around 11:30pm and fell right to sleep. I slept for about 3 hours, but I’m up again ~ I’m having lots of fibromyalgia pain, and surprisingly enough, sleeping tends to make it worse. But I’m glad Ashley was able to get to sleep ~ since she hasn’t been up in several hours, I’m guessing the contractions finally stopped.
