I am sure you are tired of being asked, but saw on facebook that you are hoping to have your sweet girl soon. Can you give us an update? Any signs? I am so excited to see her. I know she is just going to be darling because her big sister is adorable.
Last Tuesday night, I think I went through false labor (I have no idea how to phrase that LOL). It didn't end up becoming something I could really time but I was definitely having some strong contractions and we really thought it was going to be time soon. Everything died out though by the morning. :(
Since then, I have had cramping on and off and a few sporadic episodes of irregular contractions but that's about it. As of Friday, I was only dialated to just about 1, but still long and baby was still high.
I will say, though, that this is all really exciting because with Meghan, I had NONE of these signs. I was closed up tight and she was still very high until right before her birth (I was induced at 40.5 weeks). No braxton hicks or anything. I feel like my body is working the way it's supposed to this time and even though it is taking forever, I do have some hope that I won't need to be induced this time around (I'm still leaning more towards assuming I'll be induced than thinking I'm going to go into labor on my own in the next week or so).
For now, I've put myself on bedrest until we are through this storm. My parents need to come out here to watch Meghan when it's time so going into labor today/tonight would not be good. They've been pretty freaked out since last night too and will be very happy when the sun comes up tomorrow and there is no more snow in the forecast!
When I wake up tomorrow, I'll go back to the normal routine of cleaning everything I can, walking around as much as possible, bouncing on my exercise ball and using EPO. I am so hoping I don't make it to my next appointment on Friday! I'm so excited to meet this little girl and start welcoming her into our family!
Thanks for asking . I know I've been MIA. I've been lost in my own little world of getting things ready, stressing about some things going on with Meghan and calming my boss down who I believe just decided to accept that I will soon be going out on leave for 2 months.

Thank you for indulging me. I am glad things are coming along well. It sounds like you have a good plan going and you are getting things in order. I am really happy for you and will be watching for updates. I can't believe she will be here soon, but it's easy for me to say since I am not the one that was pregnant. Be sure to let us know when her grand entrance comes.
