Is she comming or not?

La fecha que me dieron los doctores para la llegada de Gabi fue el 20 de Junio (un total de 40 semanas). Pero yo sentia que iba a llegar antes. De hecho nos dio una falsa alarma 5 semanas antes. Un dia de la semana 35, cuando estaba en la escuela, comence a tener contracciones cada 20 minutos.  Estubieron ahi por varias horas, pero despues se volvieron esporadicas. Las contracciones continuaron toda la tarde hasta que me fui a dormir. Al dia siguiente ya no tube mas. 

Gabi's due date was June 20th, but I had a feeling she'd be here before that. As a matter of fact, she gave us a false alarm 5 weeks early. At 35 weeks, I was at school and began having contractions 20 minutes apart. They continued for a few hours, and then became sporadic. The contractions continued all evening until I went to bed. They were gone the next morning. 
  
En las ultimas dos o tres semanas, comence a tener varias senales anticipatorias de labor de parto; muchas contracciones de practica, dolor de espalda, presion en el pelvis, y otras mas desagradables. En la semana 38 tube muchas contracciones varias veces. El martes fuimos a mi cita con la partera justo a la semana 39. Ella me checo y vio que estaba dilatada 1cm!!!! Yupi! Esa noche fuimos a nuestra clase de nacmiento. Sherry, la maestra estaba segura de que Gabi llegaria ponto, especialmente porque habia luna llena. Bueno, el miercoles llego  y se fue, y Gabi, ni sus luces.

In the last two or three weeks, I  had more signs of early labor - Lots of Braxton Hicks, back pain on and off, pelvic pressure, and other more disgusting ones. On week 38 I had a lot of real contractios on and off. On Tuesday, we went for our 39th week appointment. The midwife checked me and I was dilated 1 cm!!! Woo hoo! That night we went to our child birth class.  Sherry, the instructor was sure Gabi would be arriving soon, specially, since there was a full moon that night. Well, Wednesday came and went, and no Gabi.
