This back labor and contractions are getting annoying! I am so tired 😴
!!!!LABOR STORY!!!! Saturday at 1AM, lost my mucus plug/bloody show, and I was freaking out! A couple of hours later I had cramping, but felt like BH just a little stronger. They came and went, but felt stronger with each hour. Didn't sleep that whole night! I called the midwife at my hospital and told her I lost it and was having really bad cramping and she told me I was fine and was prob just having BH contractions. The next day I was having what I thought were strong BH contractions every 10-15 mins, but the new City Target had opened across the st from my MiL house in Fenway, (go Red Sox! ⚾ ) and I had to coupon (it is a big coupon week!) so, I went to Target and couponed, hurled over in pain every 10 minutes, coupons in hand 😂😂😢 Went home, contractions were really intense and came every 3-4mins, so around 3am I called the hospital again and said I'm having really bad pains, and I can barely walk. They take my breath away and I think I'm in labor. Again, she said I would be screaming and unable to be so "chatty" if I was in labor, and to stay home and go to sleep. Obviously I couldn't sleep with these killer contractions every 2-3 mins now! Monday morning, July 27 contractions were now every 1-2 minutes, intense like someone was rilling out my insides, I tried rocking on the glider in the nursery, tried soaking in the bathtub, but I was in tears from the pain and from lack of sleep for two nights now, so I told hubby if these aren't labor pains I'm not waiting until I'm actually in labor. Let's to go the hospital and get the Epidural (my plan was to go natural) and he's like ok let's go. Arrived at the hospital around 10:15, got admitted, sat around moaning while the nurses told me relax, you'll catch your breath, we will get you a room in a minute. Meanwhile I'm in a wheelchair doubled over barely able to breathe. I thought I was going to pass out from the pain! Got into a room, they listened to baby's heartbeat, and midwife came in to check for dilation. "Oh my god I don't even feel much cervix. You're 9cm dilated honey let's go push!" I almost passed out at that point! I told her I can't do this it hurts soooo bad. But we got into a room, I pushed for the longest ten minutes of my life and out he came! I tore and got stitches, but not from end to end thank god. Still sore and uterus is cramping but everything else is going well. Breastfeeding is so hard! We will get there though! Third night of no sleep so don't mind the bags under my eyes hahaha And yes I am going to hunt down that darn midwife who told me to stay at home cuz I was fine and not in labor! Smh I had a CVS coupon trip planned for yesterday, but I'll take Ezra any day! So glad I pulled through with my plan though. It feels so empowering! Not saying next time I'd do it again 😂😂😂
Who's on baby number 3??! So, I'm super nervous. My first, she tore through her amniotic sack at 39 weeks. I was induced and pushed her out in 20 mins. My 2nd, at 38 weeks.. I was in labor for about 5 hours and pushed him out in .. no joke.. 10 mins.
i’m in labor, getting steroid shots to help her lungs, 3 cm with contractions 2 mins apart
4cm, 70% effaced, bag bulging out, 5 min apart contractions...but no pain so I get sent home 😐

I'm getting contractions right now but they're not painful enough they feel like period cramps and I've been drinking water like crazy to make sure it's not cause I'm dehydrated. @nanii0413 drink a lot of water could be why ur cramping dehydration can bring on contractions

I've been having contractions 2-3 mins apart since Wednesday but they stop after a couple of hours I really thought I was in active labor the 2nd time I went to the hospital since contractions were getting more painful and I had them for a good 4 hours before I went in but nope they started getting less painful and there was no progress from when I first went in its so frustrating hopefully my doctor tells me I'm more dilated today I have an appointment at 3:30

That happened to me too. I had contractions 3-4 mins apart 2 days in a row. The first day I was just a bit dehydrated. The 2nd day were real contractions, but no progress was made. I ended up having my daughter 3 days later (:
