Is this the start?
I’m exhausted. I woke at 6.30am I was really thirsty and felt sickly. I went downstairs sometime after and returned to lie down at about 8.30am.
I must of been in a deep sleep because my Mum had been pottering around and I’d not heard anything.
I was aware that Wiggy was moving around a lot and striking my cervix regularly but I’d fallen asleep.
I woke up to a cramp type feeling at 11.58am that lasted about a minute. I wondered if that was the start.
As the day has gone on I have felt different. My tummy feels very very heavy and uncomfortable.
I have been bouncing on my ball also. I have been thinking about all external influences on days, dates, times of birth and looking into Astrology, thinking about my terrible dowsing skills, guess dates from other people and I have decided that my body will know.
Maybe it does know. I suspect it has started happening but at the same time I am suspicious that I may be wrong naturally.
The difference now is I feel ready and I haven’t been ready before. Perhaps Mother and baby, if given the chance, decide together. Why wouldn’t We?
My body has grown my Baby and my baby is responding to my body so it must be a balanced occurrence when Labour begins. It can’t be one without the other. In life everything is Yin and Yang.
Even after being told last Thursday I was in early labour I did not react in the way I have tonight. I have brought my Tens Machine up and bouncy ball along with my paracetamol. Is my subconscious telling me. Am I listening to my body.
I am exhausted. I know that much. I feel in the next two days my baby will be born. Not because someone told me, or the energy pointed that way, because I can feel it within me.
I am ready to meet my Wiggy x
