Well it has been a couple of days but on Wednesday DH and i had a trip to the hospital. The problem was that i had a bit of bleeding. I noticed there was some spotting on the toilet paper when i went to the toilet. Being paranoid like i am i always check when i go to the toilet.
I rang the hospital and i was very calm as i didn't know if there was a problem or that i was fact going into labour and i just didn't feel the contractions. They asked me a few questions and asked me to pack an over night bag just in case. As DH was at work and it would take 20 minutes to get to me i called him and told him that i was feeling fine and that bubs was moving and if he could come and get me to take me to the hospital.
Within 20 minutes DH had come home and we headed straight to the hospital. As i had no more bleeding they took me into one of the birthing rooms and strapped me to a monitor and started monitoring the baby. This went on for about 30 minutes with them coming to check on me every 10. Bubs readings were fine and they rang Dr Davis (as he was delivering a baby) and checked with him to see if they should monitor me longer but he said that i was right to go, but to come back if there was any problems.
It was scary but i was really proud of myself that i kept it all together and didn't panic.
Love won.

Glad everything is ok! Hopefully, that will be the last of the spotting you see until it is really time to meet your little man!
(Oh and I still check the toilet paper too and don't think that is a habit that is about to stop any time soon either!)
I agree - toilet paper checking I think is now just a way of life! Whether TTC or UTD there is always something to look out for... I wonder if it will stop when bubs finally comes out?
But so glad everything is ok - and I totally commend you for remaining calm!!
