Well, Addison should be here any day now. I went ahead and took leave from work as I'm having contractions at 10 minutes apart and my doctor didn't think I should be driving. I've been resting a lot or as much as I can anyway. Last Thursday I started having contractions at work and they continued to get closer into Friday so I finally called the doctor's office and they said to get up to the hospital. I ended up at the clinic because labor and delivery was full so they checked me there and had me on the monitor. Basically my contractions weren't consistant enough and I was only dilated to 1 so they sent me home. Mom went ahead and came up as we feared if I did have it she wouldn't make it through the snow storm. We did end up getting nearly a foot of snow so it was a good thing she made it here. It was nice to spend that time together even though Addison decided it wasn't quite time to join us.
Monday I had my regular appointment so mom went with me and they said I'm dilated to 3 so when my contractions get closer to 5 to come back up. Now I'm just waiting at home. I knew people were probably wondering what's going on so I thought I'd better update everyone.
