Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Hello everyone. Thanks to those of you who replied to my email on Tuesday; I am still hanging in there. Tuesday night was bad with major cramping and then on Wednesday it started again about 6am and continued throughout the day. I made it to work for a few hours Wednesday and then went home to rest! Today it started about the same time but now I *think* I may have lost some of the muscus plug... it was egg yolk consistency but brownish color to it, like old blood (sorry if TMI). Perhaps that was just stuff from my cervix getting ready?? I am not sure. I have been wearing a pad since Tuesday and have been spotting on & off; I am just praying that I don't feel this icky for much longer but the not knowing when it is really going to happen sucks (like I am sure all you new moms know or the ones who have gone through this before!). I haven't been walking or anything above and beyond normal activity at this point-- do you think I should or just let nature take it course all by itself? I certainly don't want to speed it up if he isn't ready to come yet... any thoughts?? I hate having to be at work but I am trying to save all of the 2 weeks vacation time I have left to use before my short-term disability kicks in once I do give birth--but at this point if I continue to feel so crappy I will take time off unpaid if I have to!! Thanks again ladies! Ivy Nielsen DOS 11/7/00 EDD 8/22/04-- it's another boy! Big brother Jake will be 10 yrs old 9/25/04. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
