My wife informs me that she is going through pre-labour? What that exactly is or means I am unsure, all I know is that it involves erratic contractions anywhere between 15-30minutes apart, but they aren’t consistent in either strength, length or time apart. Now from what I have been told this can go along for a couple of days before it develops into anything like proper labour.
It just means no real sleep, and extra cranky wife and constantly being on edge and ready to drive to the hospital. All of which is fine by me, I tend not to be fussed by things like that.
My dilemma however is whether or not I should go to work tomorrow or should I just hang around and see what happens. If I go to work I may miss out on the start of things although I am sure I will not miss the big event because the hospital is half way between work and home. However if I don’t go I am sure I will be under foot and in the way at home and that can lead to nothing but a tirade of abuse.
I wonder if it would be wrong to just find and internet cafe somewhere to hang out at?
