Still no baby...

Tomorrow I have a busy day, i m going to work in the morning then at 1pm i have a doctor's appointment and at 5pm I made an appointment with an acupuncturist...Apparently they have some success into inducing natural labor...we'll see if that works....

D-4

This morning, I had 2 very strong contractions 5 minutes apart and then I got up to walk and it stopped...If this is how real contractions feel like, it will be TOUGH/exhausting going through several hours of those without an epidural (we're trying to have an "all natural" birth)...

We did spend the next 4 hours walking, hoping to "activate" things...

D-5

Still no baby and now I realize that our cats are wayyy too comfortable when they "think" we're not there....They even stole my spot on the couch !

D-6

Those days are the LONGEST days of my life !!!
People from work called me yesterday and I was so eager to come to the the office...it's pathetic...but at least it made the day fly by even though i was very achy when I got back !

Then my husband took me on a nice date and we had a great meal...probably one of the last fancy dinner for a while...

D-8

I saw my doctor today and no progress has been made....She even planned on seeing me Nov 6th and Nov 9th - How frustrating !! :-(

D-10 False alarm...

We had 3 contractions in one hour and then....nothing...Our baby already likes to joke around !

Natacha to Jack : "I'm having contractions, can you time them ?"
Jack's answer : "NOOOOO you would hurt much more than that..."

I think someone watched WAY too many movies with fake births....

Baby shower

This weekend Stephen and Meghan threw us an "unconventional" baby shower and we had an awesome time ! It was the best baby shower we've ever been to !
There was "tarte flambee", french cheeses and wine (and Perrier for me !)...
Jack Jr got spoilt one more time - THANKS EVERYBODY !!!There was some wii action, followed by a poker game where Jack won most of the money...No worries, the mom-to-be was in bed by 4 AM ! :-)
