40 Weeks + 1 Day

I watched my due date come and go yet again. What happened to second babies coming earlier?! This time around, though, I've had some false labor. On three (non-consecutive) nights, I've awoken with considerable contractions that were 3-5 minutes apart for 2-3 hours. Nothing too painful, but enough to convince me I was in labor all three times, only to have them go away. Such was the case last night. With Abby Kate, I was eight days late, but I never had any contractions until my water broke that day, and then I went straight into labor. I would much prefer the latter. All this false labor is killing me! So I called the doctor's office this morning and rescheduled my appointment to earlier in the week (Wed.). I just can't wait until Friday. I'll have to see a doctor that I've heard isn't too great, but at this point I just don't care. If only I would have this baby before then! Updates to come...

Oh Casey! False labor stinks- that happened with Wyatt 3 times. I am praying for the real thing for you soon!
