False alarm #2 and counting...

Is there a term for a pregnant girl that thinks she is always on the verge of labor? Something that resembles "hypochondria" but that specifically describes a pregnant person? If so... that's me!! :)

Last night Milo and I went to Fort Worth to pick up some tools from David's house, a friend that just moved. We are going to store some of his tools/ladders etc in the garage and shed outside until he finds another home. (He is moving to an apartment while he looks for a new place near his job in Dallas). Anyways, while Milo was loading the truck I sat in the garage and talked to him. He found an old chair that had been outside and put some paper down on it for me to sit on so I wouldnt have to stand, or get dirty. When he finally finished he helped me up and then said something to the effect of "oh my gosh" I cant really remember what he said... I just saw his raised eyebrows and the look of panic/ excitement on his face. He looked at me, then looked back down at the chair I was sitting on. On the chair where the paper was, were several liquid spots. My immediate thought.... MY WATER JUST BROKE! I thought, ok... maybe it hasnt fully broken yet, but it's leaking... I proceeded into the house to survey myself and found nothing.

When I went back outside, upon further inspection of the chair... the chair cushion, under the paper was wet. (it had been outside). So needless to say, my water didnt break and I didnt go into labor.

We got a good laugh out of the situation...

lol! That's hilarious! I can only imagine what your friend was thinking at first...I think I'll be the same way at the end, constantly thinking I'm going into early labor. I can't wait just for my stomach to start showing!
