frualeydisAfter having contractions that actually hurt (but not much) most of the night I lost another small piece of the mucus plug. Apart from that nothing has happened. I slept 3 hours in all during the night, but then I got two hours more before noon.
Then Rickard, I and the girls walked to a large supermarket about a kilometre away and bought some pots for my plants, a bucket for diapers and a new ironing board. Yesterday my very cool 50s ironing board broke so I had to get a new one. The new has several advantages over the old:
It's height, I don't have to bend over a 70 cm high board anymore which definitely will be good for my back.
There's no asbestos on it, which the old one had in one end, where you should place the warm iron.
But it's much uglier.
The absurd thing was that when I actually believed labour might be starting in the middle of the night I was also thinking "But then I won't be able to buy a new ironing board tomorrow".
As if the lack of an ironing board is something that would be a big issue after the baby is born. I'm not likely to start any new sewing projects the first week, right?
The girls went to their father today so that I wouldn't have to wake him in the middle of the night to pick them up if it starts tonight. Next week the are going to be with him and his wife anyway.
