On March 3rd, after spending two days in Calgary helping Sara move, we found ourselves at the Three Hills hospital. I had tried to take it easy and not lift anything heavy (Sara and mom were pretty strict about that!) but in the end I came home with a VERY sore lower back and was having some stronger 'braxton hicks' contractions than usual. Then after a nap Saturday afternoon I experienced what I thought was my water breaking. We decided to play it safe and go to the hospital to get it checked out --- after a series of tests and a few hours of lying still it was determined that in fact it was only a false alarm. To be absolutely certain we were sent to Calgary for a follow-up ultra-sound which confirmed that Solomon wasn't ready to come yet. Phew!
