38 Weeks

Created on Nov 10, '08 11:33 PM


Last night was the first time I felt what it's called "braxton hix contractions", or false labor. Gosh.. it was quite painful (only for few seconds). I can't imagine how much more painful the real labor is. Thank God for epidural!

And have you ever heard of the terms "nesting instinct"? Well, i thought of birds and chicken when I first read about it :P but what it actually means is that the mom-to-be will suddenly have the urge to clean up the house, and it's one of the sign that the labor is near (btw, then the book says it's near.. it means somewhere between few hours to few weeks). And guess what, in these 2 weeks I have been excited cleanig the house. Hehe...

I can't wait to deliver, can't wait to enjoy a light tummy... Went to hospital today, the doctor told me a bad news, that i'm having a type of bacteria, which 15-40% healthy women have during pregnancy... good news is, there's an antibiotic I can take and an injection that I must have during delivery so that it can be cured and the baby wont be affected.

It's gonna be a great delivery.. just few more days before I have to wake up every 2 hours =D
