My Body is Getting Ready

Last weekend, I had a bunch of physical changes that caused me to bump up my OB appointment from Wednesday to Monday this week. I have a blocked milk duct - painful and could develop into an infection (but not so far). It's not normal to get these before delivery and the best way to get rid of one is to have your baby nurse it away (uhm .... I don't have a baby yet?). This could mean my first milk is coming in. Also, I was getting some pretty sharp pains - not contractions, but cramps.
So, my Dr checked things out and he agreed it might be the start of things. No dilation yet, some cervix softening. He said he hoped "little bit" would wait seven or ten days. Yipes! Of course, I could stall out here for weeks, but exciting changes nonetheless!
