Well, now it's daylight. I snuck out of the bedroom to give Adam a few minutes more sleep. It's been going on all night... for a couple hours I was having contractions every 12 min or so (but WAY stronger ones) and sleeping in between. Mostly they've been 7-10 minutes apart. Each time, I need to sit up or squat, as laying down is unnecessarily uncomfortable. So it's been a lot of up and down all night. Still, I'm happy to have gotten my snippets of sleep. I'll probably get back to that in a bit, but I wanted to let one or two contractions pass while out of the room to allow my husband to sleep.
You might wonder why I would let him sleep at a time like this (when I can't). Well, at the rate we're going it's going to be a while, and I'm going to need him strong and focused when it gets more intense. Right now, it is just 90 seconds every 10 minutes that I have any pain. When it gets to 90 seconds every 4 minutes or less... I'll need him way more.
