CAN'T STOP DREAMING ABOUT

Going into labor. Haha. I'm serious. Every time I go to sleep, I'm on a cruise with Adam and I go into labor or it's some other weird setting, but I'm going into labor wherever I am. Can you guess what's on my mind when I'm awake? Yep - labor! Yesterday, while my sister and I were beginning the 4 hours of freezer meal preparation, I got the most horrible indigestion, which I NEVER get and she was sure I was starting labor. I guess early labor feels like that to some women (I googled it to be sure). The feeling went away though and didn't come back. I'm so intrigued/curious about what it will be like to go into labor, because I've never felt it before. My former life was one of induction/epidural births. So, here I am waiting, to experience what all but few women in all generations of time have experienced...natural childbirth. Waiting....waiting....waiting. The next newborn picture I want to see posted on Facebook is my own child's. K baby? According to you all, I have 10-14 days of boring anticipation...and waiting. P.S. I just ordered LilyPadz. Any of you used them? I heard "people" love them.

I used them, not 24/7 but I did. They were great! BTW you looked so cute at church today!

I use LilyPads and I love them, but when you're sore it is nice to have the normal pads, just as a heads up! And btw I too had labor dreams for like a month before I had Brian, but I think it's because I was hoping for it so bad so I could go to my sister's wedding!!!

Good luck with the natural birth. I think any woman you can do it is absolutely amazing. I've definately thought about it and think it would be an incredible experience, but I am a baby when it comes to pain, so we'll see how long I last before I get the epidural :)
