Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs.

Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I have been having pretty regular and intense contractions for the past 3 hours. Granted, I have had serious braxton hicks for the past 3 months, but these have that 'edge' to them... I have also been visiting the bathroom quite a bit, but, could that be the mexican food I had last night? LOL!

Dh and I are supposed to have a night out tonight, dinner (we are actually having dinner at a restaurant owned by my midwife and her family, so she will be there!) and then an evening with friends. I guess I'll be playing that by ear!

If you think about it, offer a prayer for a safe and smooth labor/delivery and a HEALTHY baby. This pregnancy has been such a roller coaster, and I am a tad nervous after what we went through with Molly. Thanks!

Praying, Lisa. This is so exciting. I remember well the 'roller-coaster' of your early days - I'll bet you can't wait to see this little one face-to-face!

Please, do, keep us posted!!!!
