Signs

The baby is in the ideal Occipital Anterior Position (head down, spine facing my abdomen).
I'm having semi-regular false labor contractions.
I lost 3 pounds since last week (and NOT because I'm eating less!)
I've "nested".
I need more naps.

All signs that labor is in the near future!
I went to the doctor today, and although I have to wait until next week to get examined (bummer!), all the external signs point to the end. That's no real news considering my due date is next Wednesday...but let's all get excited anyway, shall we? Maybe it means tomorrow...

False labor is such a bittersweet thing. Bitter in that it loves to trick you and play with your already fragile emotions; sweet in that it means the real thing is on the horizon. Keep praying for our nerves!
