Just an update:
I've been on pitocin all night and haven't felt much of my contractions other then a pain here and there but obviously I am contracting still. The OB checked me out and I'm 2cm dilated. That's it for now folks. :p

oh wowwww I didn't know that last part @tiffanymanuel
oh and because they broke it so quickly it hurt like hell! the longer they wait to break the water the less it hurts
@ce5ce, that is good advice! with my first the lady broke my water at 3 cm only! i did not dilate much faster either so i believe it was pointless but I didnt have to have a c section. on my second I was at 5 cm and dilated a lot faster... but how did they know that I would have? its so risky
Don't let them break your water until you're at least 8cnt. they try to break your water to "help move things along" but if your body isn't ready, it won't do it anyways and then you'll have to have a c-section because there's a small window on how long you can give birth when your water is broken because it can cause an infection to the baby. have them check for dilation BEFORE they break your water
Having some pretty intense constant lower back pain and maybe super light contractions. But can't tell because the back pain is way over powering contractions so I'm walking around my room to see if they get worse.
Why is everyone having contractions but not me 😢😢😢😢
Ladies BH do not cause pain! They are practice contractions ! If you are having pain while contracting they are true contractions and yes you can have spontaneous contractions that go away with rest and hydration but if they last longer than a half an hour it's always best to go get checked out !
What do contractions feel like?
Contractions are getting crazy strong! Anything over 80 is considered a "strong" contraction. The ones I'm having are hitting 160+ !
@ce5ce, yea I was screaming when they busted me at 3 but at 5 I didn't even feel it really well painful feeling anyways
