Frank and I had a great weekend just hanging out, just the two of us. Frank doesn't really do hanging out real well, he constantly feels like he needs to be working on a project or something.
Saturday morning he got up and put some WhirlyBirds on our roof to get the heat out of the upstairs, I worked and after we were both done, by noon, we went to our friends pool. We were there for a couple of hours, ran some errands and then went back to the pool. We both got sunburned. Someone told me after the fact that when you are pregnant you get sun burnt easier, wish I would have known before!
Sunday morning we got up and went to
Niles to the Home Garden Tour. It was fun. We went through 18 yards and got some landscaping ideas. The whole time we were there (3 hours) I was having contractions 10 mins. apart. I got very excited hoping they would start coming closer. Alas, as soon as we got home and I lied down, they stopped. Poop!! I took a nap while Frank went on a ride on his Harley (he had it detailed on Saturday so he was itching to get it out) then when he came back we made one of the beds in the shade garden and planted a couple of plants we picked up at the tour, we also transplanted a rose that we had. This started the contractions again, this time they were about 8 mins. apart. I took a bath to see if they would stay, nope gone again!
I had a dr. appointment today and he checked and I'm 3 cm. and 70% effaced! He stripped my membranes. This could be it. I've not heard very many people say they stayed at a 3 for very long (if you are one of them, please don't tell me!).
