i thought it would happen last night

so, last night while we were watching the world tv premier of lord of the rings the two towers i had some of the worst pain in my side ever. so bad i got off the couch and onto my hands and knees on the floor in hopes that would make it better. it didn't. after a while i just went and layed down because i couldn't take it any more. it did go away and then it came back and then it went away again. then i had a few contractions and then i got up to walk around i had some horrible other kind of pain all in my pelvis. i was not happy last night but i was hoping that it meant maybe baby was getting ready to do something. it was obviously doing something, but i am talking about something on the lines of please don't make me go to work tomorrow type of something. alas, i am at work this morning. 4 entries in the baby pool have been scratched off. there is one for today at 3pm. that could still happen.
i had thought that i could work up until the day the baby is born, but then i decided the other day that i think i might head out on the due date if its not here by then. after last night's pain and lack of sleep fest i am thinking i might try to finish up this week and then head out. i am having a contraction right now though, so maybe i can leave for real earlier this week? but since I have had contractions pretty regularly for the past few months, i just don't know. i would be sad about leaving a little early because that means less time at home with the baby once it gets here, but if i am going to cry every morning on my way into work, is it really worth it?
ok, so welcome to week 38.
