Thanks for all the kind words ladies!!! I’m updating in between contractions. They are big and bold when they come, and I can’t focus on anything else. I’ve been leaning on K, swaying back and forth…..moaning and breathing heavily. Contractions are about 2-3 minutes apart now. There have been some tears already…K keeps reminding me that I’ll get to meet our boy soon. MW will most likely be en route in a half hour or so. This will be the last update before the big news. Thank you again for the sweet comments and lit candles. Thoughts of strength and safe and swift labour are so appreciated. xoxo
