False alarm :(


Well we had an exciting evening to say the least. Matt, Livi and I had dinner and watched 2012. After the movie Livi asked Matt to spin her around in circles so he did and got her good and dizzy. She was so dizzy when he put her down I thought she was having trouble breathing because she was laughing so hard. I feel to my knees on the ground to make sure she was alright. When I hit the ground I felt a bit of a gush and after making sure she was alright went to the bathroom to check things out. A little more of a trickle when ever I would cough. So I called the hospital thinking alright maybe my water broke. They told me to lay down for 20 mins and see if I get a larger gush of fluid. So I'm about to lay down and before doing so call my mom to give her the heads up that she may need to get Livi. While talking with her I felt a large gush and was like ohh yea this is it. So we're frantically running around the house I call the hospital back and they told me to come in about an hour. Matt's getting Livi ready, I hop in the shower and throw last minute items into our bags. Then realize Matt had a few beers this evening so he can't drive us to the hospital and I didn't want to. Called Erin and she said she'd take us and arrived shortly after. My mom and Shea arrive to get Livi and the dog as I'm still running crazy around the house and it hit me I need to get Liv's car seat in my mom's car so I run out there and do that. The whole situation was just insane.

So we arrive to the hospital and I get checked in and wheeled down to labor and delivery. Get dressed in a gown and the nurse came into check me. My water did not break unfortunately so she does an exam and my cervix was dilated to 3cms and this morning it was only at 1cm. So there was so process and little contractions going on. She hooked me up to the monitors and said she's re check me in an hour and see if things progress at all. Hour passes still the same, she calls my OB he says to keep me one more hour and still no more progress so now I'm back at home and feel really embarrassed and stupid at the fact I thought my water broke and it didn't.
