Dreams... ??

I'm not sure if I've been dreaming it or not, but the previous 3 nights I've been falling asleep with BH contractions, and then I dream about them. I dream I'm having them, I feel them in my dream. But I'm not sure if it's just a dream, or if I'm actually having them, and hence they end up in my dream. Very strange...

Also 2 nights ago, I dreamt that Lovebug had sent me a note. Yup, an actual note, a piece of paper with words written in it. It basically said not to worry, that he was waiting to be closer to his due date. I'm sure it's just part of my own brain washing to be patient, not an actual message from Lovebug! But it was still part of this strange dream phase I'm going through.

Last night though, I was certainly not dreaming. We went to bed, as usual, and I was reading, as usual, and as usual I was having a few BH contractions, very mild. But they started progressing and they actually got painful. Not labor-painful, more like cramps, and basically located in my lower belly, and radiating to my lower back (though still more painful in my belly). It was almost as if someone was grabbing me under the (now gone) waist. I fell asleep feeling like that still, and I dreamt about it all night. When I woke up at 1:30 am to go to the bathroom, it was still very close in intensity, but when I woke up this morning it had dialed down and it was more like my regular BH contractions. I'm still having a few and I feel sore, but it's not painful.

I think Lovebug chickened out. He was very low last night, and pretty much on my right side, and this morning he was all the way up near my ribs. Weird...

Yesterday afternoon he was putting on a show. I've been having these amazing milkshakes with banana, oatmeal and chocolate for snacks, and yesterday he was really enjoying it. So I recorded it. You'll see what I mean when I say he seems to have plenty of space still, he's a little break dancer! I dare you to guess which body parts you're looking at. I will say that he has been head down for weeks now, that might help you guess. And take a look at the lower right corner (first few seconds), there's some action going on there.




We're in single digits today: 9 days to go! That's not long at all...
