Hidden Baby, Crouching Tummy
A little update for all those who have been concerned and asking… 
Sophie is due today! The pregnancy ticker reports 0 days. But she’s still sitting tight in my tummy although i have been getting more practice contractions (known as Braxton Hicks contractions, nothing to do with Toni Braxton) through the past few nights but it’s normally gone by 4/5 am in the morning.
The contractions are not very painful, similar to time of the month cramps but it feels like your whole tummy is shrinking in the inside. Woo… and sometimes it catches me off guard and i’ll make funny noises while watching TV. To make myself feel better, i try to make funny faces to go with those funny noises. Ok at this point, it is still not so painful so i can do that but am expecting it to get more painful. Heh.
Right now, I’m just waiting around doing the usual… make breakfast, read newspapers, read, watch TV, hang out at HV, watch movies, talk to pp online… and some housework if i feel like it.
Please pray for us that Sophie will come naturally this weekend or we’ll have to induce her on Mon morning… we prefer that she comes naturally… Thanks for praying!!!
