I woke up this morning and felt.. different. there's no real way to describe it.. I am tired, feel heavy and have aches all over. I also have an incredibly strong urge to have a shower! Lol, i've had one this morning and i'm trying to stop myself from getting back in! Is this feeling normal, or is it my body trying to tell me something? ------------- http://www.tickercentral.com">

Hrmmmmm who knows. Back aches are often a sign of labour.
Hope you are prepared for it!

I felt that way from the night before Miya was born. I had a shower before bed then got up and had one about 3am then a long one in the morning(was having strong contractions by then) I had a shower again after lunch and again about 3:30pm before going into hospital then I had another one about 730pm(Miya was born at 9:29pm) and the only reason I had all these showers was just because I really wanted them, not for the back ache or anything. It was just like I was craving showers! So if that's anything to go by maybe you should make sure your bags are packed! |

I felt very "different" the day before i had Ayja, maybe that's what made me get out of the house and do everything i needed to do instead of sticking around at home like i had for the last week or so.
good luck maybe baby's on the way... if not, then hey - enjoy the showers, If i could stay in the shower all day i would, never get more than a 10 minute one any more. ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

Well, I've made it to today..I ended up having 5 showers yesterday!! Lol and we're not talking 5 minute ones either...
I wish I had a bath tub.... nothing strange has happened yet, I had rather strong Braxton Hicks yesterday, but apart from this shower craving thing, and feeling a little more 'alive' nothing's happened. Lol maybe it's just my body pretending its in labour... I still have another 2 weeks to go till bubs is due, perhaps he just wants a really clean mummy ------------- http://www.tickercentral.com">
