April fools

Well Kos was awake from 3am this morning. Thankfully she only decided to call me at about 7am. She had been awake since 3 because she was experiencing regular 'tightenings' and thought that the big show was about to begin. She told me to go to work as normal and that she would call me if there was any change in her status...although I talked to her a few times during the day, the tightenings had subsided and she was resigned to the fact that nothing too exciting would be happening today.

Kos was quite concerned that she would be having a baby on April 1st! At the same time though she is keen to get this baby out and re-join the 'outside' world. She reckons her sister Santha, who is due on April 21 and visited her today, jinxed her (there is some slight competition between the sisters over who is going to deliver first). Santha was a clear cut winner for some time until Kos' membrane ruptured 2 and a half weeks ago. Now only time will tell.

This evening after sharing a spicy meal together (to try and hurry things up) Kos once again experienced tightenings and the CGT scanner that measures the baby's heartbeat and contractions was placed on her (they put it on her every night). The tightenings had returned and were spaced about 15 minutes apart, but didn't become major contractions and eventually softened out.

Maybe just a warm-up for the main game in the next few days?
