Finals + Stress - Sleep = Baby?

We finished! Dillon turned in another amazing semester here at BYU, killing his finals. I am so proud of all his hard work and success. He is so much more diligent than me and I beyond admire his consistent effort and drive!

With Kyle coming home from his mission, my Dad being in town, and teaching I found myself in a position of having to pull an all-nighter Tuesday for my Advanced Physiology final. It was rough and around 3am I started getting contractions. I was super freaked out but didn't want to wake Dillon. I timed them (5 minutes apart) and mercifully after about 2 hours they stopped. (Side note: I was not prepared for how painful they were! Yikes)

Thursday I had a doctors appointment and I let my doctor know about the contractions. She checked me out and let me know that I had been in labor! (Whoops for my stress and lack of sleep) It stopped on its own, but she said based on that progress Vince can come any day now! I'm not due until May 15th but she literally laughed when she told me she thinks that's impossible at this point.

After freaking out a bit more for the next hour or two, I got super excited! Everything is ready for him to come (aside from the fact I'm meant to be teaching until May 24th) and now I am super impatient. Watch him wait the 3+ weeks now, but I'm hoping I will be kissing my son's cheeks any day now!

  1. Exciting - scary...maybe both, but for sure crazy! Good Luck!
