Sleep, what sleep?

After working on the baby’s room and cleaning out the closet (which had become more of a storage closet since we moved in to the house), I noticed that my contractions had become more frequent.  Dan and I decided to go to bed and if they did not change in frequency through the night, we would begin to time them.  Well, after still being wide awake several hours after going to bed with these contractions Dan woke up and we timed them.  From about 2:00AM until 5:00AM I had contractions that ranged anywhere from 4 minutes apart to 10 minutes apart.  We thought about calling the on-call line to speak to our OB, but decided that we would wait until the next morning to see if they were still going strong as we had a breastfeeding class scheduled at the hospital that next morning.
