So I've been having extreme pain in my lower abdomen all day.. I can't even sit on the toilet…

maybe body gearing up for labor. not meaning it'll happen in 10 more minutes, but soon

It friggin kills. My stomach stays hard for so long to the point it hurts and I can't even sit on the toilet without crying. @emily18234

it happens to me and it's sciatic nerve pain.

like I'll sit and it'll hurt and when I strain, even just to pee, I'm screaming in pain lol. I don't know if it's the same thing for you, but it's the joy of the end of the line

the top of my belly by my ribs just went completely numb... @emily18234

that happened to me...but after a car accident. call your doctor. they said just a random going numb thing was no cause for concern, but you're having a cap load of stuff going on

The doctor I spoke to said it sounds like my labor has started. He said I could come in or just get an appointment for tomorrow so I chose to wait until tomorrow. But I'm suffering really badly. I just know I wouldn't be any more comfortable in their bed. @emily18234

yeah wait it out at home as much as possible. congrats girl!!!!!!

I ended up getting checked. No dilation but I'm 25% effaced, -2, with contractions 10 minutes apart.

@emily18234,

it's progress!! are they keeping you

No they told me it's safe to go home. The nurse was a bitch and I never got to speak to the doctor. I'm a little annoyed with that. But some progress is better than none! I'm gonna keep doing what I can to get the ball rolling. @emily18234
