The end is near!In January I began having terrible pain in my back and belly. I called the doctor and they said take some Tylenol. I did and tried to sleep. When I went to my next appointment my doctor said I was dilating and that the pain must be braxtin hicks contractions. She predicted that Sammie would be here by the end of the month. My due date was still weeks away, February 15, 2005. The pains would come and go and at each appointment they said I was dilating a little more. Any day now! I went to the hospital on January 25th, I was having terrible pain between my legs and thought this must be it! He must be coming. We dropped Robbie off at my brother's and went to the hospital. We were sent home hours later because they said nothing was happening. My blood pressure was now high though so I was told to stop working and remain on bed rest.
