Baby Girl #3 (who still remains nameless) made us a bit nervous today, as Sarah started having contractions this afternoon. At their most frequent, they were only 3 minutes apart so Sarah gave me a call at work and called Kaiser for some advice. They suggested rest and a lot of water and by the end of the night, the contractions had subsided.
You may be wondering--how far away is her due date? We're only at 32 weeks on this Wednesday. This isn't the first time, though, that we have had this experience. Sarah went to labor and delivery in Cambridge 2 times with similar frequent but relatively mild contractions a few weeks before Kate was born. Fortunately, it should be a little easier for Sarah to rest this time because I went ahead and called in backup. Sarah's dad drove her mom down tonight to stay with us and help out for a day or two. We're definitely hoping that with a little extra rest, baby girl 3 will decide to sit tight for a few months and we are always glad for some extra prayer.
