Labor

Eddison, my dear daughter, how you have made my emotions travel from normal to complete and utter confusion.

Saturday, August 17th, you had me along with everyone thinking you were going to arrive. Contractions were getting so strong, I was dilated almost to a 3, and yet you did not arrive. Instead my cervix has closed back to a 1.5 and the contractions have been limited.

To be honest, I feel foolish for thinking you were coming. I, as your momma, should have known if it was or wasn't your time and instead I let my thoughts fall away. Today has been hard for me. We told people you were coming... and nope, you are still in the belly.

I know only you and God have the final decision in it. I pray I can be content and patient and listen to my body and not try to hurry you out.

I know in due time you will be here. Question is... do I work until my water breaks?
