can anyone tell me how labor pains feel I heard differently from the women in my family my aunt said it feel like your body tearing apart my cuzzin said it feel like you have to take a booboo real bad and you can't
!!!!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 😂😂😂
little man can b here sooner then his due date friday, doc said she wouldn't b surprised if she don't see me for my last appt Thursday and won't b surprised if I have him early , hopefully she telling me something, still 1 cm though so hopefully he comes soon , been so uncomfortable she did say I was having early labor pains all in my back have them 1 in every 10 mins , be3n having pain sides and stomach pressure come on little man, 😍😍😚😚😚💙💚💛
Serious question, because every pregnancy is different, has anyone ever had a bloody show and didn't have contractions but went to the hospital and was in active labor? I swear I feel like I'm laboring in my back every 7-8 mins right now
So I keep feeling these lil sharp pains on my right side. You do get pains like that before you start your period right.? Remember I had that dark brown spotting for a few hours last month on the 22. My period suppose to start today.

Yeah definitely wait until theyre like 2-3 minutes apart! Those beds are soooo uncomfortable and if you're not 5-6 centimeters dilated they send you home! I was having bloody discharge, 4 centimeters but my contractions were every 5 6 7 minutes apart but reallyyyy painful and they wanted to send me home even though I was scheduled to be induced the next morning lmao!! They will not keep you until youre almost ready to push the child out its ridiculous but it is what it is.

I will! & I hope so. I definitely rather be at home as long as possible anywYs! Although i dont want to miss my chance for an epidural. With my son i swear i got it too late and it didn't even work! @alicia91 @mama2planning1

@laducerfamily ugh yesss!! With my first I got it but by the time I was ready to push, it wore off and I felt every single thing lol I guess because back then you just had to be at least 3 centimeters and I was in labor for 22 hours, it wore off and it hurt but its ok lol 😂😂 they can still do it up until 7centimeter I think but once you get to 7 the last 3 just fly by!
