Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Anyone remember this tune? That is what is currently stuck in my head, although the words have changed to contraction traction what's your action? Stupid I know, but the feeling of my contractions have changed and now the frequency is picking up. But still nothing consistant so there's no need to be alarmed. I go to the doc's tomorrow, but they have not been concerned with any of my contractions. It probably is worth mentioning that my boy is at least 6 1/2 lbs by now and should be about 10lbs upon his arrival. I grow them big I guess. My sugars have been controlled so he shouldn't have any problems with that aspect when he arrives. But anyway, back to these contractions, they do freak me a little. I never went into labor with Jacob, he was induced so I'm not sure how labor would start. And then, curiousity got the better of me and I stuck a finger up into the nether regions. I had to know if I could feel my cervix. Well now I'm really confused, b/c if I feel what I think I feel it is definately my cervix. I mean it feels the same as all of those god damn months that I had my finger up my twat to see if I was fertile!! It definately feels low and soft. But do I go into the doc and say Excuse me, I was fingering my twat and I think I felt my cervix? I'll be 35 weeks on Friday and I know the doc will start internals in 2 weeks. But now I wonder if all of those months of TTC was that really my cervix I was feeling. I mean I thought I could pick out medium and low. High was always lost on me. And I definately thought I had soft, medium and firm down. Oh well, I just need this guy to cook 2 more weeks and then he's welcome to come out.

Barb,
Having gone into labor on my own both times (Jake was to be an induction but lets just say once they broke my water all hell broke loose) it usually starts with inconsistent contractions. While braxton hicks feel like only tightening the actual labor ones for me at least tended to hurt some near the cervical region along with the tightening. Sounds like you are getting very close.
